1. Whats your name and where do you come from?
My Name is Tara Collins and I come from East Kilbride in Scotland
2. How long have you been making your designs?
I have been making my designs since august when I decided to set up my etsy shop
3. Why did you name your shop It's 'gossimar wings''?
I have always been facinated with butterflies at a young age, their pretty colours and shapes, so I wanted to incorperate that into my shop name and gossimar I decided sounded very boho and whimsical, so I put the two together and came up with Gossimarwings
4. Whats your favourite materials to work with?
I trained using silver and I love all types of metal, but I also love non-precious materials such as wood, ribbon and sequins.
5. Of your items which is your favourite?
It has to be my wooden butterflies and my peacock silver pendant which I just sold
6. Where do you get your inspiration for your designs and also their names?
I use nature as my reference point,I am constantly drawing and taking photo's of anything that inspires me. I find the names of my creations usually come to me at the end of the design process, after spending so much time studying them the tend to stand out and I usually go with my gut instinct.
7. Do you have any formal training or did this start as a hobby?
Yeah I went to college and studied Jewellery Design.
8. Do you have any favourite etsy shops which you buy from?
I got a gorgeous bag from Saveourhome, which stock the most amazing handmade bags and clutches. I really should spend more time on etsy looking and discovering new and exciting stores.
9. Whats your dream for 2010?
To make Gossimarwings a success and to bring a little bit of happiness to all my customers.
10. Whats you favourite flower?
