I've always been a crafty person. I can't draw to save my life, but I work very well with my hands. I like to play with things ... and then see what I can create. I've spent many years making hand made cross stitch items for friends and family. I enjoyed it, but I was in the mood to try something a little different one day. When the kids were gone for the day, I bought my first batch of jump rings and a how to manual. With those supplies, I made my very first anklet. It was love at first attempt. I really loved seeing the weaves come together and I knew that I wanted to keep going. A few friends purchased some items and soon I realized that I had the makings of a great Etsy shop. I decided to give it a whirl, and here I am!
