Have you met Nicole, the lovely woman behind
Lillyella? No? Well let me introduce you. She's sweet and friendly, and just recently got married! So read on to learn a bit about her past, present and future, and how you can enter to win a pair of
earrings of your choice (except one of a kinds) or a $15 gift card from
her shop!
I am… a 31 year old newlywed, 'mom' of many animals, insanely lucky, slightly compulsive, madly motivated, overly organized self-employed
jewelry designer who never sleeps, loves peanut butter, is obsessed with her cameras and teaches dance.
I was… a
wild child, a rebel, a flutist, a pizza maker, a
graphic designer for 10 years and a photographer for a magazine.
I will be… a faithful wife, a loving mother, a good daughter, a successful business owner and happy for the rest of my life.
My passion is…creating. and eating. but mostly creating. I can't function if more than a day goes by and I haven't created something. Doesn't matter much what it is these days, though I thrive best on variety and love finding
new projects to get into and thing to try.
Many people don’t know that I… have five tattoos, love goats and can handle a shotgun like nobodys business.
(don't worry, I only shoot paper and clay!)
Most days, you can find me… equally divided between my workbench, my computer, my refrigerator door and my bathroom.
I’d like to learn… blacksmithing and welding!
I can't believe that I... make jewelry for a living. seriously. I'm amazed and thankful every single day.
If I won the lottery, I would… buy a huge piece of land somewhere rural, get lots of goats, have an orchard, a huge garden, a turtle habitat, a gigantic workshop and I would make stuff all day long.
I’d like to thank the Academy for… my success, throughout my entire life. Maybe it was my dedication or maybe it was luck. There are times I can see how I got to where I am and there are times I can't believe I'm not dead.
