Creations Beaded - {Fabulous Finds in Etsy World}

Let's Meet the Owner ~ B.J. Baker

" I'm 27 years old and from a small town in Western North Carolina. I'm an animal lover to the fullest extent. Animals are my #1 passion. I'm also vegetarian. 14 years so far! One of my dreams for my jewelry business is to be able to make enough profit to donate 20% to my local animal shelter. Small dreams count, too!"

"My day job, or shall I say "rotating shift" job is working as a 911 dispatcher. I love my job. I love the feeling of sitting at my desk at 3 am and hearing the police sirens, paramedics, and fireman driving through town and knowing I had at least a small part in someone's rescue. However, as you can imagine, it is a job where a love of crafting is very therapeutic on my days off."

"Since I was a little girl I have loved making things when I was happy, sad, mad, etc. The pain, the great memories, the fun times, all of these things are reflected in my style. When I lost my dad at 18 to suicide I struggled for a years trying to find a craft or hobby to release my emotions, finally I found it! Jewelry is an art where so many emotions can be reflected! From happy occasions like weddings and birthday’s to dark and mysterious pieces reflecting heartbreak and recovery, I try to replicate these emotions into my jewelry. My hope is to someday be able to focus on my love of jewelry full time."

E Hernandez Designs - {Fabulous Finds in Etsy World}

Let's Meet the Owner ~ Emma Hernandez

"I discovered a love of graphic design back in college and thought “I could do this for real. I could really open my own business!” I sat on the idea for years and one day realized I needed something of my own. Being a stay-at-home mother to two young girls, E Hernandez Designs was finally born out of the desire to still have a connection to the “grown-up world”. Something that wouldn’t be ruined with grape juice stains or muddy footprints. I love being a stay-at-home mom, and I love being a business owner. The best part of doing both? I get to read stories and snuggle my kids before naptime, and then go to my office and work on my art. I’m lucky I get to do both- wearing my comfy slippers."

"E Hernandez Designs specializes in charming stationery at reasonable prices. Please check out check all my stationery options including wedding and birthday invitations, thank you cards, printables and holiday stationery. More items are available everyday, so make sure to check back often! Visit us at: www.etsy.com/shop/ehernandezdesigns "

These Beaded Dreams - {Fabulous Finds in Etsy World}

Let's Meet the Owner ~ Meral Guven

"My name is Meral Guven, and I am the creator of Beaded Dreams.  Beaded Dreams is a shop that sells handmade beaded objects.  My main focus is creating dream catchers where the netting is completely covered in seed beads.  I also started another line of items which I call “Lookin’ Good”.  These are fashionable beaded necklaces which can also be used as eyeglass holders.  I also create bracelets and beaded flowers, and anything that can be made with beads!"

"I got started at a young age, my mom saw a piece of jewelry in a store, and didn’t want to pay the full amount.  She bought me a beading kit and asked me to try to replicate the necklace we saw in the store and I came pretty close.  She also likes dream catchers and challenged me to try to make one that would really reflect light.  So after a few trial and errors, I finally managed to make one.  When people came into the house, they would ask where we bought the dream catcher.  Of course when my mom said I made them, I started getting orders from our visitors, and its been growing ever since!"

"I opened my Etsy shop in 2009, but I had to stop beading for a while when I went to University and went to work at the same time.  However now that I have a full time job, I needed something to relieve the stress of my job.  I started beading again a few years ago, and when I wear something I make, my coworkers ask me to make one for them! Now that life has calmed down, I am starting to focus more on my Etsy store to make it as successful as possible."

Lee Art - {Fabulous Finds in Etsy World}

Let's Meet the Owner ~ Cathy Lee

“I began painting by numbers as a young girl and as I grew older got quite involved in ceramics.  This eventually lead to teaching and opening my own studio as a certified teacher.  As folk art became more popular, I took classes and incorporated it into my studio.  I have taught folk art for over  18 years teaching at schools, art and craft stores, senior and community centres.  My heart is in folk art, which is why my acrylic paintings tend to be whimsical."

"My paintings are bright, colorful and fun.  I want them to make people happy.  I want to bring a smile to your face."

" I do custom orders and add personal touches as requested."

Ang's Divine Designs - {Fabulous Finds in Etsy World}

Let's Meet the Owner ~ Angie

“I started making earrings several years ago when I found out that my daughter could not wear anything that was not nickel free. Any time metal is in contact with her skin, she'll break out in a rash and itch. At the time she wanted to start wearing jewelry we couldn't really find much she could wear; so I started making earrings for her with nickel free hooks. When I started making jewelry I knew I found my creative outlet! I loved it! I started showing people I worked with what I had made and started getting requests. I have enjoyed it ever since. My goal has always been to create affordable, attractive earrings/jewelry. I try to get the best deals on my materials so I can keep my prices low for you.”

The Hemptress Temptress {Fabulous Finds in Etsy World}

Let's Meet the Owner ~ Meg

"I am a journalism student at the University of Winnipeg/Red River College.  I live with my three lovely cats.  I am a vegan, a feminist and an environmentalist.  I opened my first account with Etsy several years ago, realizing that I needed to start supporting small businesses instead of large companies.  I have greatly enjoyed receiving packages with personalized thank-you notes and beautiful wrapping – and hope to be sending more packages like this out.”

“A few years ago I learned to knit, crochet and knot jewellery.  Now it’s rare to see me sitting still!  On the bus, in class, in front of the television – I craft everywhere!  My cats have become so used to it they don’t even bat an eyelash at the sight of a string dangling in front of them!”

“I try to be very conscious of where my materials are coming from and how they have and will affect the planet.  Most of my supplies are purchased second hand or from small businesses (including Etsy shops).” 

“I get my inspiration by digging through boxes of yarn, beads, and knick-knacks – piecing together what might look good together. I love using odd things (like coloured tabs, bottle caps, bits of broken jewellery) to create beautiful and unique things"
