What got you started crafting?
A few years ago I received a necklace as a gift, I like them so much and wanted to have them in a different colour as well, however I could not find them. I decided to make them myself so. Very quickly after discovering pliers, silver wire and gemstones, I became completely obsessed with making jewelry. At first it was just a hobby something to keep myself busy. I quickly became more and more creative and began selling my work It was not until years later when the idea of creating jewelry as a business emerged.
What is your source of inspiration?
My inspiration comes from my fascinating travels to other countries, from nature and from music and all those elements together gives me a positive flow.
What have you made recently?
I am currently working on 8 necklaces for the bridesmaids of one of my lovely customer, she sent me the picture of the dresses and I am making the necklaces that will match the dresses. Each of the dress is a bit different, so this is really an exciting project.
