<b>Inspiration:</b> I created my first matchbox after the terrorist attacks of Sept.11, 2001. I lit white candles every day to wish everyone well. My inspiration comes from everywhere, including fellow crafters, small business owners, friends and family, books, store displays, and other products. Anything I see can inspire me to create something new or take a new approach to something old. My interest in creating a beautiful, yet functional object soon turned into a creative passion. The rest is history.<br><br><br>
