ChildishThoughts

I thought I would start doing featured artist one for each week, thought it would be fun to help my fellow artist get out there and been seen by the world, I know I am a small time blog but one day you will all want to be me, LOL. Ok so this weeks featured artist is ....

Her Bio:My name is Mallory Thomas, I'm twenty three years old and I'm a jewelry maker and vintage seller. I've always been crafting in some form or another. I started out doing holiday craft projects with my mom and aunt, and then grew into making personalized gifts for my pen pals. I made postcards and stationery and then moved into painting. I started making jewelry because I couldn't find the things that I liked in stores, and I felt like I could gain some satisfaction from making similar pieces myself.

About a year ago, I decided to sell the jewelry that I make because I wanted to own my own business. I have a lot of tattoos and piercings and I was dissatisfied with the fact that I would have to take out my piercings and cover my tattoos to have a so called, "real job". I didn't want to have to compromise my standards to work for someone to do something I didn't really want to do anyway.

My hope for my store is to be able to live off of what I make and sell. I want to be able to bring people cool, unique pieces for reasonable prices while still offering things that are built to last.

Here are a few of her items that I truly enjoy. Beautiful workman ship.
