Etsy Feature: ♥Rubee Designs♥

Etsy Feature: ♥Rubee Designs♥


Shop Name: RuBee Designs

What do you make? Decorative Ceramic Coasters

How did you first pick up your craft? I love decorative paper but couldn't find a use for it. Well, I soon did!What are you inspired by?I'm constantly inspired by the Etsy Community as a whole. I really enjoy chatting with other sellers and buyers and find motivation from them.

Tell me about yourself: I live in Milton, ON, Canada. I've always had an entrepreneurship spirit so when I discovered Etsy, I was in my element. I have the best 10 year old son, and a fiance who I'm marrying next year. ;)

Some of the shops I adore are:
SpiderCamp
Terbear Collectibles
nissalisa
Plush Off
Mindy's Embroidery
Suzanna Anna

Advice for fellow artists/crafters? Take baby steps. Work on your craft a little each day, keep your head up, and promote yourself! ;)

I like the owls. My undergrad school's mascot is the burrowing owl and the coaster remind me of those cute little critters.

Steph said...

That was a tough choice. She is very talented! But I'd say I liked the Candy coasters and The Office ones the best.

I really like the owl coasters the best, although the kitty ones come in a close 2nd. I picked the owls because Im starting a new business and it has an owl in the name and in the logo, so this might bring success if I have them on my desk.
Good luck with your business, Im trying the same thing (stay at home mom running an online store from home).

Oh gosh those owls are just so adorable I'm afraid to even go over there and look. Here, please hold my check card, will ya? ...

I knew it! I love everything! Ahh! The first thing that really really caught my eye and made me run back here was the forest costers, but then I saw Do the Polka and now I've moved on to Summer Roses and OMG, the ELEPHANTS!!! Ah ah ah, but right there at the end, It's Hip to Be Square! That is the perfectest one to me, as it sort of matches (matches perfectly in a kitch way!) my dish set.
