the inside source


while we were away I was contacted by Lexi Green about participating in a story she was doing for the inside source, ebay's new online magazine. She asked me a few questions about being an eco-friendly jewelry designer, then asked me to pick three ebay items I would consider bidding on. it was really perfect, considering how much I was focused on thrifting and antiquing at the moment. check out Lexi's article here, part of her column called the green scene.
