When I first started, I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted to be doing, whether it was to sell handmade beaded jewelry, wallets, wire, etc. so I ended up with My Amari for the website, in case I changed my focus later.

I started selling online finished bead woven jewelry mid 2011 , focusing more towards custom jewelry. I enjoyed making jewelry but wanted to venture further out. I dabbled a little in wire and crochet then started working on bead weaving tutorials and the more I got into making them, the more I enjoyed it and now it's one of my main focuses. I love thinking up and creating new one of a kind designs and the feeling of accomplishment when I complete one because not only do I have a unique piece of jewelry, I also get to share my designs with other who have my same obsession with beading.

Early 2016 as I've started into candle carving, I've also worked on redirecting MyAmari to more fit my creative personality. Since I cycle through endeavors, it's sometimes difficult to stay excited about just one thing. I decided to just go with it, whether I'm in candle carving, beading, or crocheting mode.
