Introducing Evelyn from Sumikoshop


Selling on Etsy has allowed me meet lots of new people. Today I would like to introduce Evelyn from Sumikoshop.

"My name is Evelyn, I’m 29 years old and the mother of a beautiful boy named Brian. I live in a tourist town by sea, in Italy. I spend a lot of time with my son, which is why I can spare the time to create and experiment with new things. I am crazy about travelling and would gladly travel around the world. I love adventure and unspoiled places…. white beaches …the sun ... my dream would be to live somewhere warm all year round.

After I became a mother, I used my free time to create jewellery and accessories for myself and my friends. That was also about the time that I discovered Etsy and the world of eShops.

I have always had a passion for sewing clothes for myself, but I also loved unique and original accessories, and I found such joy in creating them, or seeing people wear such.

I spend countless hours searching for new materials and findings for my jewellery. It‘s inevitable to get an idea or inspiration after such intense consideration of materials. Sometimes just studying them creates images of the completed item in my mind.

I do jewelry, hair accessories, pins and much more ...
I decided to open my store at etsy, so i can sell my creations worldwide.
I hope you will like my cute shop!
