Everything….. human nature, words, kindness, diversity, animals, smiles, crayons, cartoons, courteousness, movies, books…
One Brown Crafter (Tracy V.)
1. I can't get enough of handmade anything. I want to make more things and I want to buy more handmade stuff....or barter for it. :D
2. I love meeting all the creative folks I meet as a result of my new blog - One Brown Crafter.
3. I praise and curse the day that they invented bread.
4. I like everything to be simple; no complications.
What got you started crafting?
As long as I can remember it just existed - this need of mine to make things. My earliest memory of my love for crafting is elementary school - whenever there was a holiday coming up, I was always super excited because it meant that we got to make holiday crafts - Valentine's crafts, Halloween crafts, Christmas crafts....
What is your source of inspiration?
Everything..... human nature, words, kindness, diversity, animals, smiles, crayons, cartoons, courteousness, movies, books, interior design, mouths, humane people, voices, down to earth people, laughter, foreign languages, foreign places, self awareness, wool, linen, cotton, friendly people, faces, different cultures, curly hair, out of the box thinkers, movies.......
What have you made recently?
I recently created a blog called One Brown Crafter, which gives voice and space to artists from diverse cultures to show and share their work. I also recently created some new pillowcases, plush dolls, journals and cards which will be in my shop the weekend after Labor Day.
Where do you sell your crafts presently?
My new [One Brown Crafter] shop will be opening the weekend after Labor Day. I also sell my products at various fairs and shops that carry handmade goods.
Why are handmade crafts important to you?
Because it's the best! It is simply the best. The care, time, detail and love that artists and handmakers put into their work is absolutely incredible and delicious. I love being a handmaker and I love supporting handmade. Everything I own and buy is handmade except for a few things - like my television. That's the one thing I can't make...not yet!
