After you learn about Claudia and her craft you can enter to win this lovely pair of vintage leaves bobby pins --- Just perfect for fall! (A $13 Value)
Meet Claudia, the mastermind behind Etsy Shop niandra, which is based in Italy. She finds her inspiration in nature, through blogs, books, magazines, movies, and friends. Some of her items are inspired by the novels of Jane Austen!
By selling on Etsy Claudia has learned to be open to new influences and experiences. The popularity of her items on Etsy was truly eye opening and gave Claudia confidence in her work. There is truly nothing like having you creations being appreciated! This confidence and success helped Claudia realize that she was creating something of value, although she still feels strange having people spend money on her creations.
Claudia would love to learn to sew. Like many of us she is a collector of cute fabric. Her next step is to buy a sewing machine! Personally I am very excited to see what she comes up with!
Claudia's preferred color combination really depends on her mood. Usually you'll find her experimenting with earth tones and muted colors. Although she doesn't usually wear earrings herself Claudia loves to make them. The same goes for her great looking bobby pins - She considers the pair that is being given away her favorite!
During this part of the summer you'll find Claudia reading on her patio. She also enjoys taking her dog Dusk to the beach in the morning before it's too crowded. Another enjoyable activity is having a delicious meal in her friend's gardens.
