Interview week 2 A shop owner you must meet!

Another wonderful shop I stumbled upon! Her name is Julie T, Owner of  JulemiJewelry
Just looking in her shop and she has some very releasable prices for her work. 


One of my favourite pieces 


How long have you been on etsy? Do you enjoy it?
I HAVE BEEN ON ETSY SINCE OCTOBER 2013 AND BEGAN WITH JUST BANGLE BRACELETS. I HAVE THEN EXPANDED TO NECKLACES, CHARM BRACELETS, EARRINGS, AND RINGS. I HAVE NOT DONE VERY WELL WITH NECKLACES AND RINGS, SO I PLAN TO DISCONTINUE THOSE SECTIONS.





Where did your shop name come from?
MY SHOP NAME IS ACTUALLY A MISH MASH OF MY NAME AND MY DAUGHTER'S NAME (MORE DETAIL IN MY BLOG "WHAT SHOULD I CALL IT?") MY NAME IS JULIE, AND MY DAUGHTER'S NAME IS EMILIE.


What got you started and what keeps you inspired?
I HAD ASKED MY FIANCE FOR A FAMOUS MAKER BRACELET THAT I WANTED FOR MY BIRTHDAY. I WAS EMBARRASSED TO FIND OUT THEY WERE $50+ AND WE COULD NOT AFFORD THAT AT THE TIME. 




I GET RANDOM MOTIVATIONS. MY FIRST WAS OUR TRIP TO HAWAII IN DECEMBER 2013. THE FUNDS WERE USED AS SPENDING MONEY SO WE COULD HAVE A GOOD TIME AND NOT WORRY ABOUT IT. NOW THAT THE VACATION HAS GONE AND PAST, WE ARE NOW FOCUSING ON MOVING INTO A NEW PLACE AND GETTING MARRIED. AFTER THOSE TWO EVENTS, ALL FUNDS WILL GO DIRECTLY INTO MY DAUGHTER'S BANK ACCOUNT FOR WHEN SHE IS OLDER.

INSPIRATIONS COME FROM PINTEREST AND EVEN MY DREAMS. I'VE POSTED A FEW "DREAM INSPIRED" ITEMS IN MY SHOP AND EVEN DISCLOSED THAT'S WHERE THEY CAME FROM ;)

What is your next step?
I HAVE RECENTLY APPLIED FOR A SALES TAX ID IN MY STATE AND I PLAN TO TAKE BUSINESS CLASSES TO MAKE SURE I AM RUNNING MY SHOP CORRECTLY. I AM TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH WEBINARS AND BLOGS AS WELL.
