I've started my own business which is SO exciting.. www.andreelise.ca/design
I mostly make crystal jewelry but have been known to offer some graphic design services as well!
it's fun.. I like it :) I've had 9 orders so far and it's going very well cept for some of the products having broken and I had to repair them. I don't mind tho.
I recently went back home to Ottawa for my cousin's wedding and brought with me my whole stock of rings and sold a bunch on site and delivered custom orders I had received from family members for the wedding. I made quite a bit and I am so proud of myself.
Here's a sample photo:
that's one I made for my cousin Anik - she LOVED it and I am so pleased.
Will update on my status... but I am loving it so far - next step I would like is to take a course and get into it more seriously :)
