Featuring Giggling Goldfish

Looking for fun learning and fashion for kids? look no further. Meet Giggling Goldfish...


1 - Where can we find you on the web?
flickr
Twitter
Plumdrop



2 - Where do you sell your items (online and off)?
Art Fire
etsy
1000 Markets
setting up shop on lollishops
Also sell my goodies here locally.



3 – What is the story behind your shop/business name?
I love telling this one. When my daughter was younger she would always say her goldfish were smiling at her, so it just seemed appropriate since we often create together to name our company Giggling Goldfish.


4 - When and How did you get started in this line of crafting?
I come from a family of artists and crafters and have been creating ever since I can remember and love to learn new techniques. I feel like I am constantly on a creative journey.


5 - What inspires you?
My kids totally inspire me and the things I create! And I absolutely love color.


6 - When did you decide to go into business for yourself? Was it gradual? Or did you jump in with both feet?
Hehehe, I think it all started when I created my first lemonade stand when I was very young! I have been selling things I create literally ever since I can remember.


7 - How do you promote your items?
Word of mouth, I carry biz cards everywhere I go, I along with my kids carry around and use the things I create, twitter, flickr, forums, any way I can.


8 - What is one non-craft hobby or pastime that you enjoy & would like to share with us?
I love to canoe, kayak, and hanging out with my family and friends.
