wow...i've just read all the interview...it feels to read a story that i would like to tell someday. i have a dream job like you have, but i always wanted to have my own buzz. I have an etsy shop but i am not a great promoter yet. online shops here in italy don't work yet that much than in the us, but i hope they will.
I am having craft fairs for our trip to california and NY this summer (and that will be expensive) so you just toooootally inspired me!:D thank you soooo mcuh

i suppose i could have guessed you worked for anthropoligie! and all this time i just assumed you didn't have a "day job," other than your "stuff" as you call it in the article :)

Your blog was one of the first I ever subscribed to and was the beginning of my journey to writing my own blog... and all the while we worked for the same company and I never knew! I work for Urban in London. Well done on making your move - risks bring rewards as they say.
