Accesorize for Life!


I always love accessories. To me a wardrobe is not complete without them. They define my mood. When I don't feel like dressing up, I compensate it with what else- accessories!

I started making my own collection for as long as I can remember. They come in all shapes and sizes. It has and will always be my surefire stress buster. When I was still a corporate slave, I find comfort with my BFFs- earrings, neckpieces, bracelets, charms. Some friends come and go, but my BFFs stayed with me through the years. One time, I made earrings as Christmas gifts and my friends thought they were store-bought! Such a compliment. I have probably made more than a hundred sets of earrings just for myself. Then one day, in my usual reflective thinking, I decided to pursue my passion and make it my own business. No boss, no unruly officemates. Just me. It's no easy feat making these treasures. My hands are now rough, my a** burns, my neck hurts. I guess this is self-mutilation. But I enjoy making my accessories. So I guess this is for LIFE!
