Crafting Goddess Extrodinaire art for everyday life Name: Melida Occupation: Crafting Goddess Extraordinaire Mission: To save the world from accessories of mass production. Most of my pieces are made from vintage jewelry and fabric to ensure a greener planet and a truly unique, never-again-duplicated accessory. I've worked in design for over a decade and have had jobs sewing costumes, making jewelry, and creating promotional materials. I collect hobbies like I collect cats and tattoos and I love learning new skills! I'm an artist and by that I mean: crochet, knit, make jewelry, web pages and graphics, quilting, sewing clothes, collage, henna tattoos, screen printing, ETC! Im very interested in herbs and natural healing, funny movies, meditation, yoga, buddhist beliefs, vegetarian cooking (though i LOVE meat), bartering, hiking, gardening... My husband is also an artist and is great at drawing and the guitar. Things should always be funny and awesome- otherwise it isnt worth your time. That's why I make stuff like voodoo dolls, condom caddies, and crocheted hats with ears for my cats. All are items of purpose and good for a laugh. I collect all sorts of crazy things that I find abandoned by the side of the road.
