What is your shop?
Beaux Bangles (http://beauxbangles.etsy.com)

What is your art/craft?
My signature pieces are my ornate one of a kind belt buckles. In our shop you will also find handmade glass, and jewelry in different styles. There are two of us and we both have split personalities.

Describe your style in 2 words:
Baroque Bling

What is your favorite piece and why?
At this moment I love white and gold Baroque Bling belt buckle in Gemini. It is just soooooo fancy! Of course my next piece is always my real favorite - right now I’m working on a Pisces buckle using real shells along with the blingy stuff. Coming soon!

What is the most memorable piece of advice you’ve ever received?
You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can point yourself in any direction you choose.

What is the one piece of advice you’d give?
Housework can wait.

    I love the contrast between the ornateness of some pieces and the simplicity of others. You’ve struck the right balance. How fun to have someone to run a shop with - double the brilliant ideas.

    Timeless work is what I love to see. I gravitated to this piece for that exact reason, beautiful!
