| More About Me | I am a sport nut. I don't like to play sport but I can watch it for hours on end (why didn't they offer sport watching at school? I would have got A+'s). I have a ferret named Clancy who is my baby. I don't have any children (I don't want to have any). I live on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, Australia and love it! At High School I loved metal work but it took another 20+ years for me to turn my love of metal work into a jewellery business. |
| My areas of expertise that apply to handmade business: | I have crafty parents who taught us to work with our hands. This means that I am happy to get down and dirty to make what I love. I also have 20 years of admin experience so I understand the back end of business and the bookkeeping side of things (but it doesn't mean I do the right thing... oops) |
