I have always been crafty, and it runs through my blood. My father had Leukemia all throughout my life, and to make the time pass as we lived in hospital waiting rooms, my mom would buy us craft kits, as one can only do puzzles for so long.

Creating has always been therapeutic, needful. I do it for many reasons, I love the social handprint of a handcrafted piece and supporting others like me. I love the idea of re-purposing something that was once loved, and to help it from going to waste. I enjoy finding the perfect supplies, and it helps knowing I can help support my family as well.

A friend bought me a lovely handmade necklace, I loaned it to another and her child took some scissors to it. As a crafty person who had already taken a jewelry class years prior, I decided to learn how to fix it. Creating jewelry has been a passion every since.
