*How long have you been been doing this craft? Where did you learn and how did you start?
-My interest started in high school so, around 25 years ago. My friend had taught me from school. I was making flower bracelets and necklaces but then I took a break. But I couldn't entirely give up on beads so I restarted 4-5 years later. I've started learning new techniques from accessory magazines and books. And then I kept searching on the internet and kept teaching myself new things.
*Do you know about the roots of this craft?
-I don't know its roots but people do beading in their cloths and house decorations in different motifs since early history.
*Where do you get inspired from when making your pieeces?
-Traditional motifs, nature and some come intuitionally.
*Do others do the same craft? How does your work differrentiate from others?
-Yes, there are other people who do some of the pieces I make.
