Thoughts from Jana:
I really think having corporate experiences really serves me today.
When you are relaxed, that is when you are working at your peak.
When I do my workshops, it really brings me joy.
It gave me the confidence to make the jump because it what it looked like on paper.
I feel like I can’t be creative as I was in the past, because I can’t take those risks like I did back then.
Embellishment is a creative form of self-expression.
People want something unique. They want something handmade.
Everyone has their own personal story about trim.
You should know what is going on in the market.
