About Me

Born and raised in Germany as an army brat, West Milford, NJ is now my home. A quaint former vacation lake community we are nestled in the northwest corner of NJ just south of the Vernon snow skiing slopes. With bear-proof trash cans, our neighborhood cat Jake was featured on the yahoo.com main page for scaring a bear up a tree!

I live with my wonderfully supportive boyfriend and our loving children Lance the yellow lab 13yo, Merlin the smelly cat who MUST be on his 29th life, and Nisha who is definitely NOT so loving and is called Catan and Nishafer... (satan and lucifer)

I have always been very artsy even though my work has taken me to opposite ends of the career spectrum as a financial educator and money and wealth coach. I teach families how to become debt-free and financially independent.

JEWELCOME! Make sure to post YOUR Handmade WISH LIST at the TOP of your profile to be featured on our FRONT PAGE! :o) siempre - dorana

I've tried again several times and it's still the same so I'm assuming they haven't gotten back to you yet. It will not allow me to post my Etsy shop code there either.

Thank you for helping to enable us other Etsy addicts. :D

I seem to be having a bit of difficulty though...I'm familiar with Etsy Mini, as I use it on my blog and FB, t when I pasted the code into my text box, my thumbnails don't show up. The only thing that shows up is Etsy's tag line and my shop link. :/

NOT JUST ANOTHER NETWORKING SITE!

What I think sets apart successes from failures are those that find adversities and ADVERTISE them and those that find adversities and look for ways to make them ASSETS!

After half of a year dedicated to the idea that people really are interested in the artisan community and then researching, promoting and marketing my jewelry shoppes from various online retailing sites, I came to an enlightening conclusion that I had heard over and over again...

"These sites are really just SELLERS… Continue
