My Children Boosted My Jewelry Business

My name is Linda. I am originally from Puerto Rico but I live in Miami.

Jewelry making, (or Bisuteria, as they say in my country) has always been my passion. I have always loved creating.

I recently developed a curiosity for crochet. So I decided to combine it with my jewelry making and I have to say it was awesome.

Everyone ranted about it. I enjoyed making them so much.

My craftiness has made me explore many different handmade adventures. Fabric flowers, key chains, bracelets, hair pieces among other things.

I guess being a mother of four girls kind of led me in this direction. I always wanted my little ones to feel pretty.

As my children’s friends saw their accessories, they began to make orders, and their mothers also.

This is how I began a little business without even knowing.

Even though I am still in process of getting my niche off the ground, I am hopeful that this will soon become the dream come true that I am waiting for.
