[ the shop ]
I'm Manda, a 22-year-old recent college grad who's loving life. My shop is my creative outlet and a reason to make more stuff than I have room for (although that hardly stops me). My shop was started in the summer of 2010 and has been growing and evolving rapidly since then. I make things that appeal to me and my wacky style. I have always had an affinity for food, especially sweets. Tiny food makes me squee in delight. You know what they say -- small things are just sooo adorable!
My goal is to make cute and unique handmade products, but mostly I just love to create, have fun and share the happiness. I especially love making delicious and adorable food and other bizzare pieces, but I love making custom orders, too!
[ the artist ]
I've always been in love with art and expressing myself creatively through the use of different media. When I'm not working with clay, I like to illustrate and explore different techniques with various mediums. You can check out my digital and traditional art on my DeviantArt page. I also participate in art and mail swaps with people all over the world. Despite what path I choose in life, art will always be a huge part of me and who I am.
I do and am involved in a lot of different things. I consider myself nerdy and am a huge technogeek. I taught myself HTML on a dial-up connection when I was 7 because I was so determined to customize my Neopets page. I play video games, read, write, bake, and run. Oh, and I'm a huge girly girl. I'm just a bunch of awesomeness rolled up into one convenient package.
[ the blog ]
This blog is mostly my random and personal musings, with some crafty tips and tidbits sprinkled in. I plan to hold giveaways and contests periodically, as well as weekly treasury and artist features. If you'd like to create a treasury for the blog, or request to be a featured artist, please send me an e-mail at LampshadesAndLollipops@gmail.com.
