Profile Information
- Location:
- I am where I am.
- About Me:
- I have worked in the IT field for over 10 years. After bouncing around from contract to contract and finally lost my last job to downsizing and jobs being sent overseas. I've decided to try and turn my hobbies into a living.
I'm just starting out and I learn something new everyday. I'm hoping to be able to make a living with this. Own and run my own business from home.
I currently make goatmilk soaps, candles, incense and bath and body products. I love jewelry so I'm considering learning to make this as well. If only I can refrain from raiding my own inventory. :)
- Gender:
- Gal
- I am a/an:
- Independent Artist/Designer, Blogger, Supporter, Shopper, Independent Retailer, Purchasing Agent/Buyer
- (Designers only) I create:
- Handmade, rebatch and M&P soaps, bath salts and teas, cone incense and soy candles. Just started making jewelry as well.
- (Designers only) I am willing to do:
- Custom orders
- (Designers only) I have been featured on:
- Just starting out.
- (Designers only) My work is sold at:
- Etsy mostly (http://boerbarn.etsy.com) I also have an Artfire shop but I haven't used it in a long time. Also have a store on FuzzB but I don't keep it updated. Recently added a widget to my Etsy store there.
New site - http://boerbarn.webs.com

- Favorite Music/Musicians:
- Shinedown, Linkin Park, Ozzy Osbourne, Disturbed, Atreyu, ArchEnemy, Seether, InFlames, Nickelback, Zakk Wyle and 3 Doors Down. I also enjoy some country, blues and classical music. Whatever I hear that I just happen to like I suppose. I don't care too much for Jazz or Bluegrass although I can recognize these people have A LOT of talent. That alone impresses me. I'm a musician myself and I tend to be a bit opinionated. If I hear a band that sounds as good live as they do on CD, then I'm impressed and they've gained a new fan.
- Favorite TV Show & Movies:
- True Blood, No Reservations, Grey's Anatomy, Lost, Survivor and most anything on the Discovery Channel, National Geographic and the Science Channel.
- Favorite Books / Authors:
- Randy Pausch, Dr. Daniel Amen and Charlaine Harris.
