I spend most of my time working in my studio, making things for my kintsugi business and love crafting and creating new things. I have five grown up children and seven grandchildren for whom I'm always making gifts! I'm an avid student of Japanese culture, history and art and have been obsessed with Japan all my life (though I have never been able to afford to visit). I am attempting to learn Japanese but it's diabolically hard... I'm working on it slowly. I would say I was a fun person who is young at heart and enthusiastic about anything that interests me.
