...do you believe in MAGIC? I do...peek at the new issue and see why...

...I was with the kids at NY Comic-Con when we spotted her artwork...we talked about Where Women Create...and next thing I knew I was standing with Letty outside her London store in the snow last February waiting to do a photo shoot.

Fast forward to this month and the new issue of Where Women Work...and there she is...on the cover....

Miraphora Mina of the House of MinaLima design studio and retail experience...

I am so grateful that that small conversation led to my first published magazine cover.

Thanks to all who made the journey possible....most of all to Miraphora Mina for sharing her talent with us all...

...a dolls' dressmaker...peek into her world

I totally adore Hilary Wagstaff and all that she creates...

 ...so what a true treat for me to dedicate my column to her in the latest issue of Where Women Create  

that's JUST hit the newsstands...

 Hilary has a 

finely tuned personal style... 

the clothing she creates for Blythe dolls shows that she's at the top of her craft -- with an aesthetic that makes her creations clearly identifiable as her art.  

Her story and style were a natural match for my 

"Business of the Studio" column...

 

...her wee fashions send me...

tiny embroidered details, finely fitting frocks.... but above all that...Hilary has a wonderful story of her business and how it happened...

how fab that she's shared her story!

A huge thanks to Editor in Chief, Jo Packham of Where Women Create for the opportunity to celebrate Hilary and her Moshi Moshi Studio 

in the new issue of the magazine....

 A peek at her studio space shows her empirical nature and her dedication to order, a love of vintage fineries,

and a nod to texture...

I was thrilled to be invited to photograph her studio space last year in Penarth, Wales.

 You can follow Hilary via her facebook page...HERE

and....you'll find a link 

to her etsy page there...

 she's on Instagram as @hilarywagstaff

Thanks Hilary for sharing your story and style! Your creations are fabulous, your business journey noteworthy and I am so grateful to know you through the wonderful Blythe community!

paying the bills with your passion...part III..take note of you're a creativpreneur!

Some of you have been following my column in Where Women Create: BUSINESS

 called...

"Turning Your Passion into Your Paycheck"

If so -- TAKE NOTE -- Part III has just dropped onto the newsstands and it's packed with tips and tools for MARKETING YOUR HANDMADE BUSINESS...

...many of you don't know that my formal training is in Urban Planning -- yep -- even have the Masters and the Professional License (AICP) -- 
but that may not seem to match with what I do everyday with Earth Angels Studios...

But it does! It does!  Why??? 

My specialization in Planning is in small business economic development... that means, I know how to help business grow through garnering sales, how they market and how they position themselves within the economy as makers and manufacturers...

So now -- instead of working with food and fashion liked I used to in Manhattan, the Bronx and Brooklyn when I lived in Queens -- I work with handmade and have since I started my dabbling in 1994 as a hobby business...

I went full time into Earth Angels in 2000 when I had my first kiddo and have not looked back.... Soooo it' really nice for me to have the opportunity to come full-circle and share my business development know-how in this four part series called 

"Paying the Bills with Your Passion"

(you can catch the prior columns -- Parts I & II --

 in the July and October issues...)

 
A big thanks to Editor in Chief, Jo Packham, for the opportunity to share my experience and know-how in this column...

It's been a joy for me to work on these articles to encourage artful entrepreneurship.

You can order copies of the magazine HERE

And thanks to all for your support of my work at Earth Angels...
