I am so impressed! I want to be able to work with more metals, I need more equipment, more supplies. I wish it was like it was several hundred years ago when artists had rich "sponsors" and could just do their thing all day...I could be kept! Hell,…
A throwback to the 60's, I wasn't quite old enough or in the right area of the world to be a hippie but I have always been one in spirit. I've always been creative; arts, crafts, music, cooking... I guess I've ended up a jack-of-all-trades or maybe I just have that attention deficit disorder, but I'm always trying new things. I have varied interest and likes, from lace and pearls to feathers and leather and bones, do not like to be stuck in a certain style or classification.

Tell Us More (we'd like to get to know you better). About Me and My Art, Hobby, Craft:
I sold automotive parts for the last 20 years but due to bad knees I've had to give up the life of walking on concrete 40+ hours a week. Over the last few months I've opened a shop on eCrater and Etsy and offer a mix of my handcrafted creations, handmade jewelry and vintage collectibles, mostly kitchen items.
Hi Eddy, great to hear from you - hope all is well with you. Yes Thanks I had a lovely birthday with lots more celebrations going on over this weekend :-) Got to make the most of it lol xx
Hi Eddy,
I thank you for your help. I'm more of a graphics / printed material gal. I'm still learning the web side of things. I love creating marketing material like post cards, business card, display material. There is so much to cover in the web area it can be a l little overwhelming but I love the challenge.
Thanks again

Hi Eddy.
I hope you can help me on something. I would like to add my link for my etsy page to this site here. How did you do that. I like the way yours looks. I would be grateful for you help
Thanks

Hi Eddy.
Great to have you as a friend. I am sure you will have a great time here and I look forward to more of your work being shown.
I love what you do and isn't it interesting to see what others are creating. Makes me want to diversify into another craft. Not a good idea !!! Maybe later.
Cheers
Katy
Half the fun of working with metal and a torch or soldering iron is the experimentation lol! I learn more by just doing (although I certainly look at my fair share of tutorials, they can be invaluable sources of information and are way cheaper than a class) than anything else. I was really afraid of my torch before I started using it lol! Sometimes you just have to do it. Good luck and send some pictures of what you come up with I would love to see them.
Its really lovely to meet you on here and I'll be sure to pass on any time management tips, once I figure out what they are and that they actually work in practise!
I love your jewellery, I hope you are taking up Diane's offer of free marketplace on here to sell your work.
I see you make things with feathers do you make dreamcatchers? I love all things Native American!
