Craft Therapy


I’ve recently been asked what made me open up my shop and besides the obvious answer, that my designs are too fabulous not to share with the world and they will soon make me a millionaire, my shop has been a great stress reliever and much needed creative outlet. As I’ve written in my blog before, I work in the child welfare field and have recently started a new adventure as a family counselor. After a stressful day I love being able to lock myself up my studio for a couple hours and create something. Besides being amazingly therapeutic, I can also support my sometimes expensive craft habit with what I make from my shop (something my hubby appreciates!).

  3. Etsy is a welcome respite from the stress of the every day grind. There is nothing like having the Etsy FP greet you every afternoon. :)
