ArtfulSpirit's Profile

Bio

I have been crafting since I was a child. My mom taught me how to cross stitch when I was 7 and I have been drawing and coloring since I could hold a crayon! As a child I had an endless supply of coloring contest prizes, free Disney channel, stuffed animals, gift certificates, etc. I have sewn, painted, made candles, soap, candy, you name it, I probably have done it! My other passion is photography. I have loved taking photos for years. My husband and child are usually my favorite subjects, although I get most of my inspiration for my crafts and photography from nature.

I am currently crafting part time while working as a full time retail manager. I am hoping to be able to escape the corporate world and make my passions into my career. I have been selling items on Ebay for years, but have had little success with my handcrafted goods there. I stumbled upon Etsy and a it was like fate! This is exactly what I had been looking for, a place to sell handmade goods to people looking for just that.

I love to use handmade papers and mulberry papers, felt, any fabric that catches my eye, buttons, ribbons, and any fun trinkets and do-dads. I love to try new ideas and techniques, so visit often! You never know what you might find in my shop!
