Inspiration From the Younger Generation


I love to hear about other crafters and artists and feel that it is our responsibility to help each other as much as possible.  We are all out there trying to make our business work and get our product a little publicity.  That's why when I started this Blog, I promised myself that I would not only talk about my own projects and products, but also feature other crafters and artists.  I immediately thought of my niece, Krista.



Krista was ALWAYS a crafty kid.  I remember one time when she was in elementary school she was visiting my parents and had been making little figures out of clay.  She was selling them to her classmates at school and making a profit.  If that's not the entrepreneurial spirit, I don't know what is!





Now she's all grown up and still crafting away.  Razzle Dazzle Bows is her business and she makes adorable bows by hand.  What is most inspiring about her and her business?  She does it all while working a full time job and remodeling an antique  house she bought with her sweet BF, Michael.  Talk about motivation!  Whoever said that today's generation isn't motivated hasn't met this girl!

She does have a Facebook page for Razzle Dazzle, but it's not the business page.  However, you can send a friend request and see her creations.  I believe most of her business is custom orders right now due to time constraints.  I really hope to see her build on all of her creativity in the future and when she has more time (maybe when the house is finished)!
