I will also be continuing to offer the tick. They will be available at the local farmer's market and craft shows throughout the spring and summer. I will also be adding them to my Etsy shop around January of 2015. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Update as of September 3rd, 2014</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">We learned last week that my liver is failing. I am not quitting the fight though. I continue to crochet and do markets and it helps keep me busy. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">THIS IS ONE OF THE HARDEST POSTS I HAVE EVER HAD TO WRITE. SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE DOCTORS HAVE NOT HAD MUCH HOPE OF ME MAKING IT A FEW MORE MONTHS WE ARE AT THAT POINT AGAIN.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">AT THE AGE OF 15 I WAS BITTEN BY A TICK. MY BOYFRIEND BURNED IT OFF OF ME AND I WENT ON WITH MY LIFE. I WAS AT BOARDING SCHOOL AND DEALING WITH BEING RAPED THEN KICKED IN THE KNEE AND HEAD BY THE RING LEADER.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">THERE WAS ENOUGH TO DEAL WITH WITHOUT DEALING WITH A BUG BITE. THE NURSE DID NOT THINK IT WAS A BIG DEAL SO WHY SHOULD I WAS MY THINKING AT THE TIME.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">HOWEVER AT THE AGE OF 32 ONE OF MY ONLINE FRIENDS SUGGESTED THAT MY HUSBAND FILL OUT A LYME SYMPTOM CHECKLIST I HUMORED HER AND HAD HIM DO THAT AND HE CHECKED OFF 90% OF IT.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">NEEDLESS TO SAY WE FOUND A LYME DOCTOR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH LYME AT THE AGE OF 32.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I TRIED DOXY BUT I REACTED BADLY AND THEN I TRIED SILVER AND IT DIDN'T SEEM TO DO MUCH. IT WAS HARD TO FIND A MEDICATION THAT WOULD WORK AND ALSO HAVE A LIMITED EFFECT ON MY CELIAC DISEASE.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I PUT IT ON THE BACK BURNER FOR A BIT BECAUSE WE COULDN’T FIND A DOCTOR THAT COULD TAKE MY INSURANCE AND ALSO DEAL WITH MY COMPLICATED MEDICAL HISTORY. FINALLY ON JULY 29TH, 2014 WE FOUND DR P NEAR ATLANTA WHO FINALLY PUT IT ALL TOGETHER. MY ENTIRE COMPLICATED MEDICAL HISTORY WAS DUE TO LYME DISEASE.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><u>IT ONLY TOOK THEM 19 YEARS TO FIGURE THAT ONE OUT!</u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">EVEN THE FIRST LYME DOCTOR I HAD HADN’T TOLD US THAT! I HAVE BEEN STARTED ON ANTIBIOTICS AND SOON WILL START IV TREATMENTS. HOWEVER THE BOTTOM LINE IS WITH HAVING SO MUCH WRONG AND IT BEING SO LONG BETWEEN THE BITE AND DIAGNOSIS WE AREN'T SURE HOW MUCH MORE MY BODY CAN GO THROUGH.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">WE DO A HAPPY DANCE EVERY THREE MONTHS IF MY KIDNEYS AND LIVER HAVE DECIDED THEY ARE GOING TO KEEP WORKING LIKE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">THERE ARE SIGNS ON MY MRI THAT I HAVE LESIONS ON THE BRAIN FROM THE LYME SO BASICALLY EVERYTHING IS AFFECTED AT THIS POINT.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><u>I HAVE EVERY PLAN</u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><u>FOR BEATING THE LYME INTO SUBMISSION!!!!</u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">BUT IN CASE I DON’T I WANTED TO MAKE SURE I COULD THANK THOSE THAT HAVE HELPED ALONG THE WAY AND I ALSO WANTED TO TELL A FEW PEOPLE</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">TO GO TO HELL BEYOND THE DOCTORS THAT PUT IT DOWN TO IT IS ALL IN YOUR HEAD FOR THE LAST 19 YEARS.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">THANK FOR BEING THERE FOR ME SINCE I WAS 17. EVEN WHEN MY PARENTS WANTED ME TO TELL YOU TO GO TO HELL I WOULDN’T. YOU WERE THE FIRST ONE TO CLUE ME IN THAT MY GUT FEELING WAS RIGHT. THAT THE ABUSE I WAS GOING THROUGH AT THE HANDS OF MY PARENTS WAS NOT OKAY. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">

I TRIED SO HARD TO MAKE SURE YOU WERE LISTENING AND OBEYINGSO YOU WOULDN’T MAKE MISTAKES AND GET ABUSED WORSE FROM YOUR GRANDPARENTS. HOWEVER SO MANY TIMES I WALKED AWAY FROM YOU AFTER I HAD TO PUNISH YOU AND I WOULD CRACK UP LAUGHING WHEN I WAS OUT OF EAR SHOT OF</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">NEITHER YOU NOR ABIGAIL SWAM AT THE TIME AND SWEETIE 1/8 INCH ICE IN SPOTS IS NOT THICK ENOUGH FOR ICE SKATING PLUS YOU DIDN’T OWN ICE SKATES!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">LAWN MOWER WITH A CONCRETE BLOCK TO HOLD DOWN THE SEAT SO IT WOULDN’T TURN OFF. YOUR SISTER PERCHED ON THE BLOCK AND YOU HAPPILY MOWED THE LAWN. YOU WERE THE ONLY ONE WHO MANAGED NOT TO DRIVE IT INTO THE POND.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">YOU ALSO LOVED TO STUFF FROGS AND CRAWFISH IN YOUR POCKETS TO BRING THEM IN THE HOUSE. I LEARNED TO HAVE YOU TURN YOUR POCKETS INSIDE OUT BEFORE LETTING YOU IN THE HOUSE!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">

HOPEFULLY WE CAN SEE EACH OTHER SOON SINCE REBEKAH YOU ARE 16 AND ABIGAIL YOU WILL BE TURNING 11 THIS YEAR AND START TO GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER AGAIN AND SHARE SO MANY MORE MEMORIES.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">IN MY LIFE THERE ARE VERY FEW PEOPLE THAT I WOULD TELL TO GO TO HELL AND EVEN FEWER THAT I WOULD PUT IN GOD’S SUGGESTION BOX THAT HE SEND THEM TO HELL. THOSE TWO PEOPLE ARE MY PARENTS</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">JOHN & SUSAN HOOS. YOU HAD NO REASON TO ABUSE ME THROUGHOUT MY CHILDHOOD SEXUALLY, PHYSICALLY, AND EMOTIONALLY. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">AND THEN GO ON TO DO IT TO YOUR GRANDKIDS. YOU BOTH HAD BEEN THROUGH IT AS A CHILD AND THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ENOUGH TO STOP YOU FROM DOING IT TO ME.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I AM NOT SOME HELLION SINCE 6 MONTHS OF AGE LIKE YOU REPEATEDLY TOLD ME. I AM A HUMAN BEING WHO WAS ACTING OUT BECAUSE YOU WERE ABUSING ME. NOW AT 34 I REALIZE HOW MUCH MY CHILDHOOD ISSUES WERE JUST FROM THE ABUSE.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My name is <o:p></o:p></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; text-align: center;">Adrian </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">and my Etsy shop is </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/allaboutjesusdesigns">All About Jesus Designs</a>. </span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">When did you start your Etsy shop?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; text-align: center;">I started my shop December 2012.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">What is the story behind your business name?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">The story behind my business name is very simple. Every thing that I make is to give honor, glory, and praise to Jesus Christ who is the CEO and creator of my shop. I am just HIS servant.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I don't make anything that would be contrary to HIM. When I am making something, I feel even closer to HIS power and HIS love. For me, it really is all about Jesus.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">What do you sell?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I sell Christian decor such as crosses, plaques, jewelry boxes, and also Christian jewelry such as as necklaces, earrings, and bracelets. I also have some prayer crosses. Right now I have primarily women's, teen and childrens. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I am planning on expanding to more stuff for men and boys in the future. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I even have some banners for online Christian decor for Etsy and for other social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook, Google Plus, and Pinterest.</span></div>

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">How did you get into your craft? <o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I didn't even know that I had the gift of creating anything let alone painting. One day I wanted to create something for my husband rather than just purchasing something so I walked into the craft store and walked out with some paint, brushes, and a picture frame. Needless to say, my husband loved it. He said it was beautiful and not just because it was from me. From there I started making things for friends and family. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I then began to develop a tremendous joy for it and wanted to continue. Now it is my small way of sharing my love for Jesus will everyone else, even outside of my little circle of friends and family.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I started creating jewelry, just because I love the beauty of a cross worn on someone that truly loves Jesus and isn't afraid to show it. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Please see my About Page as well.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Since childhood I have had a love for textiles and photography but the two were always separate from one another.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">2009 was the beginning of these two passions coming together. The TEXTILE ARTIST merged with the FINE ART PHOTOGRAPHER.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Being a photographer and not liking the weight and feel of a headlamp sitting atop my head, I looked around for an alternative and discovered hats with built in headlights! The textile artist in me then started creating and stitching a few designs giving each hat a personal touch and that's how this business was born!</span><br />

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">When did you start your Etsy shop?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">I opened my shop Jan 21, 2014</span><br />

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">What is the story behind your business name?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">When I was a little girl I enjoyed sewing and crafting with my grandmother. It was a fun experience for me. I thought that I was an odd child until I realized that my creativity and desire to create is fun. I'm in college now and I wanted to bring back pieces of my childhood that I had forgotten and use the creativity I have to make new things for people.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">How did you get into your craft?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">I actually got into making bracelets because I was sewing a dress. There were some left over fabric scraps and I tied them to make a bracelet. I loved the style it was simple but with an air of chic. I kept making them until I had them ready for others.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

I like drawing, paper cards making, and I'd love to see anything beautiful in my mind to become real in my hands.

<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">It was inspired by a butterfly (Paper Kite) that originates in </span><st1:place style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;" w:st="on">Southeast Asia</st1:place><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">. The symbolism of the butterfly being around growth, change and freedom is similar to my process of an artist. It also doesn't hurt that I really love butterflies!</span><br />

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">What do you sell?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">I sell one of a kind jewellery and jewellery-related products. I handcraft each piece to be as individual as the person that will one day wear them. I believe it is incredibly important for each of us to accept who we are and stop trying to be something we are not - I hope that my pieces of jewellery inspire women to do just that. It is that belief that helped form my tagline of "Be True. Be You."<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">How did you get into your craft?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">I have been making jewellery since I was about 7 or 8 and ironically chose to start off with seed beads as my preference -- the big pony beads bored me I guess! I used to actually sell my work when I was a child in school - beaded geckos were all the rage back then and I happened to know hot to make them. Since then my art has developed and changed over the years, giving me a love of painting, photography, sewing and crocheting. Paper Kite Creations has brought me around full circle to be working primarily with jewellery again.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

Emma Wyatt Art<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Hi, my names
Emma and I'm the owner and creative person behind Emma Wyatt Art. I make and
sell wire wrapped jewellery as well as taking fine art commissions although the
later has been put on the back burner lately due to surgery on my hand earlier
this year.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Before Etsy I
worked as a graphic designer for 12 years in a large publishing studio, you
name it and we did it! I’ve also spent the last few years attending craft shows
with my pencil art and meeting lots of interesting people!<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Growing up I
have always been interested in making and drawing, so much so that I went on to
study art for 5 years after leaving school. Towards the end of my time at <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placename w:st="on">Art</st1:placename> <st1:placename w:st="on">College</st1:placename></st1:place>
I spent 2 years studying surface pattern and working with fabric. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">When I was made
redundant in 2012 I started making wire jewellery as a hobby and I love weaving
with it and creating patterns and structure. I started taking my work to fairs
and it gained more and more attention, so much so that it started taking over
from my art work.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My designs
start not with the wire but with the stones I’m using. I prefer to use
gemstones because they are all unique, tactile and have been on such a long
journey before they come to me. Often I start a design and just see where the
wire takes me; it’s the most fun part of what I do. I’ve recently been dabbling
with precious metal clay and I love the idea of having a wire and metal clay
fusion. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I’m still quite
a new shop on Etsy but its growing and I’m excited to see where the adventure
will take me. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">You can visit my shop on <a href="http://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/EmmaWyattArt">Etsy</a>, <a href="http://www.facebook.com/EmmaWyattArt">Facebook</a>, and on <a href="http://ponderfish.deviantart.com/">deviantART</a>. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Thanks for
taking an interest!</span><br />

Rose Manor Gifts and Art<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My name is Betty and my Etsy shop is <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/RoseManorGiftsandArt?ref=pr_shop_more">Rose Manor Gifts and Art</a>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />When did you start your Etsy shop?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Oct. 31, 2012</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />What is the story behind your business name?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I wanted to choose a name to reflect the type of items that I create and I decided, after much reflection, that I create mostly gift items and many of those are created from my original photographs and my own hand painting. Thus Rose Manor Gifts and Art was born.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">What do you sell?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I sell many different types of designs as I am always thinking of new ideas that I want to try and see if I can "make happen". Art Trays, Handpainted Crystal, Women's Jewelry, Children's Jewelry, Handpainted Hats are a few. One very special design series that I have created, is called "Sentimental Journeys" This collection has over 60 original designs. Each design has been created around a 100-year-old postcard where I fuse the postcard's original art with my own painting. This enhances and enlarges the design as it spills out and over its border. Special frames are chosen to complement each design.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">How did you get into your craft? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I have been crafting about 10 years when I made the first "Sentimental Journeys" design. That is when I started to visual the concept of the collection. Everything else has evolved from there and continues to with new ideas all the time.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Anything else you would like to share?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">With my crafts and my Etsy shop, I have discovered and found many things. The most important to me are the joy of creativity and the blessing of new friends found.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My nickname is beksta-bee, so when I was trying to name my shop, I changed "bee" to "beadz", since all of my items have something to do with beads.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">When I was very young, I started making jewelry.

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">When did you start your Etsy shop?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I opened my shop in August 2012. Beforehand, I sold my items in my mom’s shop, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/EmsJewelry">EmsJewelry</a>.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">What is the story behind your business name?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Frost Me Sweet, a bistro in my hometown, is one of my favorite places to get a sandwich and some lemonade. They make really cute and delicious cupcakes, too, and this inspired the name for my shop.</span><br />

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">What do you sell?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I sell polymer clay miniature food jewelry, mostly earrings. Cupcakes, pickles, bomb pops, carrots—you name it. I also sell handmade scrunchies, colorful gumball earrings, bracelets, and shrink plastic stud earrings with animals character illustrations.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">How did you get into your craft?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My mom is a very crafty person, so I grew up in a creative environment. I first started using polymer clay three years ago after my mom purchased a miniature food instruction book for me.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b><i>When did you start your Etsy shop? </i></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I started my shop on January 12, 2012</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b><i>What is the story behind your business name? </i></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">My shop name came about when I decided to focus on making items for newborns to 5 year old. </span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">What do you sell? </span></i></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I sell crocheted items for children and babies. I offer a variety of items-baby blankets, hats, diaper covers, cocoons, booties and more.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b><i>How did you get into your craft?</i></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">My Mother taught me how to crochet.</span><br />
<div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b><i>Anything else you would like to share?</i></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I enjoy making custom orders. Even though the items in my shop are for newborn to 5 years old they can be made for older children, even for adults. During the next year I will be expanding on the variety of items I offer for sale.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">My name is Karen, and I own <a href="http://darlajanes.etsy.com/">Darla Jane's</a> on Etsy. We just opened in January, so while the store is brand new on Etsy, I am not.
I've had a store for childrens' shirts since 2006 called The Rocking Pony. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">Darla Jane's was a result of raising puppies for nearly 15 years, and all the
new owners excitedly telling me that they just bought so many things for their
new puppy. I realized that I sew for kids, so it was time to start sewing for
the dogs! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">We carry dog coats, collars and leashes, collar accessories such as
bows and flowers (and a mustache!), durable toys and beds. We have some things
for the people, too, such as note cards and wall art featuring dogs. Of course!
All our products are tested on our pack of 4 french bulldogs. If it gets the
4-paws up test from them, it's definitely a winner. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">The store is named after
our favorite brindle frenchie, Darla. She's our chief clothing wearer and at my
feet no matter what I'm doing. I have so much planned for the store in the
upcoming year so keep checking back to see what I've come up with next!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">My name is Lisa Harp and my shop is </span><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/harpstringscreations" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;">Harp Strings</a><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">. I have had an antique shop by this name for almost 25 years! I am originally from Louisiana and relocated to Nebraska 2 years ago. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I started hand stamping then and have evolved my look into what you see today....combined my love of antiques with my love of WORDS. I use vintage/antique buttons, jewelry and keys to adorn my pieces and USA made aluminum or vintage silver plated spoons to stamp on. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I love the one of a kind result combined with knowing I have rescued and repurposed a treasure from the past!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18pt;">I love working with stone. I make jewelry, sculptures and my Hope Rocks! collection which is designed to bring a smile to anyone's face. I will also be including paintings soon. All items benefit cancer research.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Creating beauty was born in me I have always wanted to clean, decorate, and make things beautiful.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in;">

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Anything else you would like to share?</span></i></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Anything else you would like to share? In January of 2013 I had a heart attack and was in the hospital for 17 days. After rehab and gaining some strength, I couldn't do much, but I could sit in a chair and paint. I was making all sorts of beautiful things. I began to look around and wondered why I was making all these things and what was I going to do with them. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Then it came to me, that beauty comes in many different forms. The Lord didn't have to create all the colorful and majestic things that He made. Some of His creations man has never even seen. He made them for His own pleasure.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">That's why I make my things, for my own pleasure. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I hope that my creations will inspire others to be content and enjoy beauty just for their own pleasure.</span><br />

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">When did you start your Etsy shop?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">What is the story behind your business name?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Well, I thought I needed something catchy, It took awhile till I got to what I have today, Trend Corner. Its something simple, And something that you can't forget. That's how my business name came along<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">What do you sell?<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Well I tried selling my handmade phone cases, But its not really working out.. So I started to make jewelry. I like to stick with gemstone, or anything environmentally friendly.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I got into crafting ever since I was little, But I wasn't very good at it.. In high school I took sewing lessons so I could become better at sewing. Then I started making little crafts.. like phone cases, Bookmarks.. Garment.. That's where everything start!</span></div>

Sweet Pea Dolls<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We are
Tiffany and Ali. Our shop name is <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/SweetPeaDolls?ref=si_shop">Sweet Pea Dolls</a>. We
decided on this name because I often call Tiffany, 'sweet pea', and we make
dolls among other things! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />
Our shop sells handmade needle felted creations, such
as animals, ladies accessories and home decorations. We first started our shop
in September 2013. As an international couple, based sometimes in Hong Kong and
sometimes in the <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">UK</st1:place></st1:country-region>,
we don't always get to be together, however Tiffany visited a class on needle
felting in the spring of last year, and fell in love with it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />
Having made some
dolls to bring to me in the summer, we decided to have an online shop with the
aim of putting our love into making things which would bring a smile to other
people's faces! <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/SweetPeaDolls?ref=si_shop">Our shop canbe found on Etsy</a>. We can also
be found on our website <a href="http://www.sweetpeadolls.weebly.com/">www.sweetpeadolls.weebly.com</a> and our Facebook page
<a href="http://www.facebook.com/tiffanysweetpeadolls">www.facebook.com/tiffanysweetpeadolls </a>where we will keep you up to date with
our latest developments. We love to hear from you, so please don't hesitate to
get in touch!</span><br />
