Hello everyone!  My name is Moana and I'm from Honolulu, Hawaii :)  When I was a young girl, my parents gave me a box full of plastic beads and a spool of elastic to play around with and I've been hooked on beading ever since!  Now that I'm older, I've graduated to more sophisticated jewelry making and last year, I finally decided to try my hand at selling my creations since I love making them so much.  Last year I opened up my own Etsy shop and had my own booth for the first time at a Christmas craft fair.  I'm so happy to be part of this forum and I really look forward to learning more from everyone here :D

Aloha, Moana!

Oh, sure!  Rub it in that you live in Paradise while the rest of us are freezing our tootsies off!(g)  Welcome to our family, and I hope we see some of your lovely creations in our readers' gallery soon.

Hello Moana and welcome!  I've found there are inspirational beginners and some very helpful establish creators here.  A good mix.  Looking forward to sharing with you too!
