As many of you know, EtsyBABY team members are extremely talented. We wanted to take a peek at the person behind the creativity. All through May, we will be interviewing shop owners, to get a glimpse of the designer behind those adorable baby products!
We have made the personalized stools and puzzles for
over 30 years. My husband had a skiing accident back then and was
laid up and just started making toys for our son who was 1 at the
time. The hobby grew into us doing a few local craft shows to
traveling a 5 state area to being a full time business. and I
really like Etsy so I thought it would be great to have a shop here in
addition with our own web site
How long have you been practicing your art/craft?
Over 30 years
What training have you had or are you self-taught?
My husband was handy with wood working and I always did some
kind of crafts.
What is your favorite material to craft with? Wood
Having to learn all the computer
workings to go along with have a Internet business.
Any advice for other Etsy sellers?
The only thing I
can say is that it is a great place to shop and a fairly easy shop to
operate, I am still learning new things all the time. I am sure there is
much more I can do to promote our shop too, so just keep working at
it.
What do you enjoy doing in your off time?
Spending time with my kids and grand kids We are very blessed
with 3 great kids and 8 beautiful grandchildren 9, 6, 5, 2, twins (12 months) and twins (3 months). Our stools and puzzles are very kid tested! I
also like to read, knit, and have been doing some rug
hooking
Describe a typical day in your life...
I spend
most of my day at the computer, processing and handling orders. I
always try to answer every email and phone call.

have a web site Cubbyholetoys where we have many cute and
different children's items along with all our of
items.
