Chocolista Colleen's Review:
Beadsnbaubles sent me one of their Custom Pastel Stripe Initial pendants. It was packaged beautifully in a pretty organza bag, ready for gift giving. This is perfect for anyone who likes unique jewelry. Personalization with your initial adds another special touch. Wearing this, you're sure to catch people's eye. Everyone will be asking, "Where did you get that?"

Chocolista Deborah's Interview:

I love jewelry! Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, baubles, bling. If it sparkles, I like it! I used to play dress-up with my grandmother's jewelry. She would let me raid her jewelry box and I'd have a glorious time. Is that how pendant making began for you?

I remember as a little girl I was always fascinated with jewelry and interested in all the sparkles. It started as me making things for myself and then grew into this passion that I can not live without! An accessory is what puts the finishing touch on an outfit. It also says a little about the person who wears it.

Visiting your Etsy shop, I notice you have chosen lovely colors for your pendants. How do you choose these colors? What is your favorite color?

I try to choose colors that compliment each other or also ones that are very hip. My favorite by far is turquoise!

Not only do you make fabulous pendants, you also make darling earrings. Which came first? The pendant or the earring? Do you enjoy making one more than the other?

The pendant came first and then I added the earrings too! I just debuted my new personalized sterling silver stamped jewelry and I am so excited about it! There are so many things that are possible with this line! I can't wait to see the outcome!

I'm always fascinated by what inspires people. Chocolate inspires me (tee hee). What is your inspiration?

Really just to be able to create inspires me and when I have a pleased customer that gets so excited when they receive their piece in the mail or to know their excitement of giving one of my personalized pendant for a birthday gift is so rewarding to me!

Speaking of chocolate, what is your favorite chocolate?

Milk chocolate

Etsy is a great resource for crafters like yourself. Are you also selling at other venues? For example, might The Chocolistas find you at a craft show somewhere?

I have dabble a little in some local venues but mainly on etsy~ I can reach so many more people there!

So, tell us, if you were stranded on a desert island and could only bring one candy bar with you, which one would it be?

Milky way
