Hello Guest Giveaway lovely! Please tell us a little bit about you , who are you, where you’re from!??
My name is Marissa and I live in New Jersey. I love living close to New York City, and not too far from the ocean.
Tell us about what you make & your inspiration?
I make handcrafted jewelry. I began a few years ago and my love for jewelry making just grows and grows. It is a wonderful creative outlet, and being able to share my creations with others is the real prize. I try to be inspired by soft and simple designs, and I like the bohemian look. I love layered necklaces. Sometimes I am all over the place and then I have to remind myself that my shop should look, at least to some extent, like a collection!
What is your favourite item to make/sell ?
I absolutely adore working on custom items. Just ask, chances are I’d be happy to make it! Oh and I love to search for cool vintage pieces to reconstruct into jewelry. I think something old combined with something new is my favorite style.
• Do you have any favourite Etsy items you’ve bought?
The sea salt bars from magichands.etsy.com..long lasting, excellent soaps.
The “Smiling Buddha Soy Candle” from MrsTattooedGeek.etsy.com..this is the most amazing scented candle, very relaxing. The “AMOR VINCIT OMNIA” bowl from palomasnest.etsy.com. (LOVE conquers all!!) And of course my beautiful banner, which I love so so much, from SeaDreamStudio.etsy.com
• Do you have any other websites people can find you?
I have a facebook fan page, and I like to list special promotions for facebook fans!
Find me here: http://www.facebook.com/SUGARLILACetsy
I have also just begun to work on a blog. It is still in the beginning stages but I can promise to entertain you once it gets going! http://sugarlilac.blogspot.com
• Whats the best advice you’ve ever been given?
Treat others the way you want to be treated. The golden rule! You are no better than anyone else, and no one is better than you. My parents must have said this to me a million times growing up, and I am thankful it made me into who I am today.
• Anything else you’d like to say?
I would like to express my sincere gratitude for being featured here! Wishing you all a beautiful and happy summer!!! Full of sunshine.
