This week interview with Roberta Vianini  and her shop m adamaRobè , From Veneto, Italy Tell us a bit about yourself and your shop. I’m Roberta Vianini and I’m from Verona (Italy).

I have a degree in the human resources’ field and I worked as human resources trainer in several companies and training societies, I taught communication’s skills, problem solving, selling skills and how to write a CV and look for a job. Crafting was a hobby for me but there was a moment in my life when I decided to turn this hobby in my real job…and I did it!

Today interview with Hashleigh Hodges and her photograph shop ANomadInParis , From California, United States Tell us a bit about yourself and your shop.   My name is Ashleigh Hodges.  I have been married to my best friend, Kevin, for 21 years and we have 3 beautiful children.   I have lived in the San Francisco Bay Area all of my life.  Art has always been a part of my life ---- I have a mother who had a business as a potter.   I used to love watching her make elaborate pots on the wheel in her studio.  It was like magic!  My dad's "art" is working with the roses  in their large garden.  And, my uncle is also an accomplished painter and retired art professor.    So, art has always been an integral part of my upbringing.  It's something that I appreciate my parents for.  I am a more rounded/cultured person for the time we spent visiting museums, having access ...

This week Interview with Sophie and her shop Bagatelle Design, from Colorado, USA. Tell us a bit about yourself and your shop. My name is Sophie and I was born in Belgium (Europe). I moved to Colorado in 2000 with my husband and our 3 daughters. I love the outdoors and all kinds of sports. I started making jewelry for myself many years ago and quickly discovered that I have a passion for colors - textures - shapes. I particularly love Swarovski crystals. Swarovski crystals have a magical and sparkly quality to them that reflects the beauty of the natural world surrounding us. They can be found in many of my designs. I handcraft each piece of jewelry right here in my Colorado studio. I take pride in my designs. There is a story around every piece and the colors I choose. I believe that the things you wear can be an expression of who you are; they can make you feel good and brighten your day. HERE Why did you choose Etsy to sell your ite...

Il nome (La Mandragola) è un riferimento a ciò che ci ispira: la magia, la notte, le streghe, la luna, insomma tutto ciò che è misterioso, ancestrale,  affascinante e femminile.
