Inspiration: The silliest things get me in the mood to create cool stuff, like japanime and cooking shows. Bakery shops, brightly colored candies, sprinkles, and cocktails also get my mind racing.

Favorite things to create: I love making lipgloss and working with mineral powders, micas, and flavor oils to concoct sweet tasting shimmery balms and glosses. I also am partial to whipping up fabulous scented sugar scrubs with organic ingredients.

Crystal ball predictions: Expect more mineral cosmetics and deliciously scented bath and body treats, as well as some joint-collaborations with some unconventional crafters!

What I'm grooving to: Shiny Toy Guns and Electrocute

Craft Mafia crush: I am absolutely infacuated with Fort Cloudy of the Charm City Craft Mafia and her super cute collection of tees. She made me one bad ass hoodie.

Where I would like to see the HCM in a year: I am confident that the Hollywood Craft Mafia will be on the forefront of creating a stronger crafting community in South Florida through events and shared knowledge.
