So what do you make?
I make
things from Chains! Primarily chain link
Jewelry, but I also have things in other mediums but they all have chains as a
base.
How did you get started?
I was
introduced to chain maille by an old friend about 15 yrs. ago. I love crafting and experimented with it a
great deal over the years. I found a
whole world out there in chain maille jewelry so that’s where I made my dive.
How long have you been crafting?
I have been
crafting since I was 8. Crocheting was
my very first craft. Clothing design is
my passion.
Where does your inspiration come from?
My
inspiration comes from everything around me.
I love looking thru the eyes of my children. They always see things in such a free and
imaginative way. I enjoy finding
something and making people see it completely different.
Tell us something about yourself (something you don’t mind
anyone knowing).
LOL I would
love to be talented enough to be on project runway!
What else would you like to share?
Creating
makes me feel alive, the energy and freedom of expression is very healthy for
the mind. A good day of imaginative work
tends to be a great stress reliever.
What advice would you share to someone wanting to get
started?
Always
believe in yourself, don’t worry about what other people have to say. If you have something that you like to do
there are 1 billion people out there and there is bound to be others out there
that like it to. Always be willing to be
different you can always create your own niche’.

Beautiful work Michelle! Where do you find the best place is to sell your product?
ReplyDeleteThank you so much I love what i do and that certainly helps! Right now most of my business has been word of mouth, which makes Facebook a very important tool for me. I also utilize flyers, business cards as much as possible. Of course that means my friends are my models which benfits all lol. Very soon Kara's will be unveiling a new logo (thank you Megean at www.theindiviuality.com) and ill be working more on Kara's online presence. Onward & upward my friend!
