If you ask me which straps I like most, I would like to say I like all the straps we made. The white braid, Smurf, Bohemian strap, Cheerful camera straps all are very beautiful.
I’m now just full time focus working on my straps & the official website of !mo Straps is just launched. I’m excited to make more & more beautiful & comfortable straps for people who loves photo-shooting!!

What got you started crafting?
It’s been 10 years of my working life after university graduate. I’d worked as management level in exhibition & events sector. My work was extremely busy; I used to spend over 12 hours in work daily in average. U can imagine that I have only got very little time to do the things I like, and I don’t have much time to accompany with my family, my friends & my dog. And I just think life is not just working, I think there should be something more. So, I quit my job last year and went to Scandinavia for 1 month myself and think of my road ahead.
I thank the Lord that He is my shepherd. I started my business last year, starting to do freelance marketing for different companies, mainly in event marketing like arranging exhibitions & product launch… And it’s my dream to have my own brands for years. So, I started making straps in Aug, last year. I enjoy making these straps because I can just make what I like. I like genuine leather, that’s why all the head of my straps used genuine one. And if you ask me what inspire me to have new design, I can just say I just did what I like, including the color, pattern & style. I will shop around the fabric / leather shops, to see what good materials there. I think it just like cooking, if you see something fresh /good in the market, u’ll buy it & cook it! That’s my way to make !mo Strap.
What is your source of inspiration?
I'm a bit picky, I like fashion, I think style & comfortable are both important. I choose the fabric & styles as I like. I like indian, boho & colorful styles. I'll window shopping in boutiques & fabric stores to get idea.
What have you made recently?
Bohemian Camera Straps
Where do you sell your crafts presently?
I’m very happy when I first put my straps to sell on etsy, I can hardly believe there’s someone bought my strap! In fact, before I sell on this website, I know nothing about etsy & selling on-line. What make me feel most happy is that people bought my straps & say they like them. I’m so glad that my work is acknowledged by my customers!!
Why are handmade crafts important to you?
I can design & make what I like, flexible & could custom-made
