I thrive when I create something, I love building anything with my hands. When I finish creating every book clutch or booksafe, I am still in wonder and so grateful that I get to make such wonderful use full items!"
What or who is your inspires you to create your wonderful items?
"Gosh, I am so inspired by the vintage books that I make into booksafes, or Book Clutches... and the stories from customers who tell me about the story behind why they have ordered the one that they have! I think the "thing" if it can be classified as a "thing" is the time and energy that I put into making each one of the booksafes, and book clutches and turning it into something fun, novel and unique!"

"My favorite creations are the book clutches that I make, each one is so different from the other, it is rare in this world that you can hold something that is unlike any other in the world! Truly a one-of-a-kind book clutch, for the woman who is a one-of-a-kind!"

If you were an animal, what would you be, why?
"I would be an eagle, to fly on the level of the heavens, and to experience freedom, peace of mind and freedom...an eagle that soars above all the worries and illusions of the worries here on earth. No war, no worries, just peace."
If told you had to, would you base jump or skydive, why?
"Could I do both?
I would love to do either, not much really scares me too much...except spiders!"
A face only a Mother could Love!
Who is your favorite musical band?
"I have a collection of music....
anything that moves me!"

And Lastly....
Living or deceased, what famous person would you most like to meet, why?
"Gosh...Martha Stewart or Ellen Degeneres! Martha Stewart is a DIY Empire, and very savy...so I would meet her with a million questions! Ellen makes me laugh, she exudes such a wonderful light, and her comedy is witty, smart, and clean! There isn't an episode that goes by that I don't laugh and dance, she is what the world really needs more of. Positive energy, love, and laughter! :)"
