Unleashing my creative spark!
What started as a side hobby while I wasn't working has now turned into a little side business being creative! While I took a leave from work for a year while I was bored an unsure what to do with myself. Next thing I am on the hunt at Spotlight for a hobby that would keep me occupied. Several months later and I now have a website, sold at multiple markets and created a little business for myself that keeps me occupied while I am not working. What started with jewlellery has now turned into dog tags and dog products.
A lot of my inspiration comes from my grandfather who loved making jewellery when I was younger. One thing I have certainly learnt through this process is that everyone can be creative. In everyday life I am extremely structured and don't like suprises and thought I didn't have a creative bone in my body. I have learnt that it is not the case and everyone can be creative in their own way. I give you a challenge for today...go and find your creative spark and what makes you happy!
