With everything from beads, books, vintage jewelry, and hand made items, there are plenty of surprises. Tera is a stay at home mom of a teen daughter with Aspergers syndrome as well as a precious 19 month old son who keeps her hands full. Somehow she finds the time to stock her shop with treasures and maintain her web site, Bohemian Glitz.com.
Tera shares:
"I began with my first set of jewelry tools about ten years ago before I knew what to do with them. I had always dabbled in some form of craft wether it be painting, writing, sewing, crocheting, or whatever I could get my hands on. My family suffered a tragedy a couple of years ago that led me to dive head first into creating jewelry as a sort of therapy. Jewelry designing saved me.
My love of vintage started with my mother. She was always dragging me into thrift stores, antique stores and auction sites. We grew up in Eastern Washington where vintage items were abundant. As I have grown, so has my collection and I decided to start listing some of my personal vintage items in my etsy store.
I get a little prickle of excitement when I sell something whether it be a handmade creation or a vintage item. I like to package everything with a little surprise in it. Often, in order to send the right kind of surprise I will nose around in my customers profiles, their favorites or past purchases to see what they may like. "
