Welcome, let me give you a little back ground of how I have ventured out to sell on Etsy.
I came from very large Italian family with many talents from generations dated back to the early 1800’s. Throughout the years I noticed that the crafts changed depending on the era, some were needed to survive, some for boredom, and some for family gatherings like Weddings, baby showers, funerals and birthdays. My family had a craft ideal for everything and every holiday.
I learned to crochet from my Grandma S. at the age of 6 years old. By the age of 20 I was designing my own personalized patterns. The art of beaded ornaments was a gift from my Grandma B. God Bless them both, very talented individuals with hearts of gold.
My Mom was my inspiration my best friend my rock and my gardening buddy. She always told me “Never say you can’t do something until you give it your best”. My shop name was designed with her initials “JTB” watching over me so I don’t give up. So now I am retired, moved from NY to NC with my husband, with lots of time on my hands and learning even more crafts.
When I started I knew nothing about wire wrapping, but with determination and my Mom in my head I set off to challenge myself with tutorials from beginners to advance.
I hope as I grow and learn in life I am able to share my beauties with you.
God Bless and be safe.
