Bio

I am a very passionate person, a traveler, a believer...
I am more an artisan than an artist
I love handmade things because there is a piece of creator's souls in all of them
I forgot myself for a long time and I am trying to remembering me...
All my creations are "one-of-a-kind"
I don't religiously follow fashion but I like to be inspired by, specially "haute-couture"
-------------------------------------------------
Why this name? I know this is more an english spoken community. But why not learn a little spanish? Crear es creer means : to create is to believe... which I always thought and loved. It's a message full of hope and is the reason I'm here...

Why handmade? because you buy something unique at a fair price and the benefits go straight to the artisan.

Why natural fibers? I prefer natural fibers because it doesn't go in a process that pollutes the environment and also are biodegreadable.In the case I use another kind of fiber is just recycled material from larger pieces or donations from people who know me and gave me materials they didn't use anymore to reuse it in something productive.
In the future I'm planning to spin my own yarns and dye them with natural stuff as onion (yes! I'm keeping safe onion's skin)

Why here? I think about these marketplaces as communities and I like the way all of us interact.

Ask whatever you want, I speak english, spanish, french and portuguese.
