Focus on Kona Creations



This is Percival. He's so cute that I just might die. Or buy him. :)

He comes from Kona Creations' etsy store, a lovely collection of painted wooden signs, soy candles, and plush finds like Percival up there. All pieces are handmade by Farrah and her husband, Charles.
I chatted with Farrah a bit and here is her story:

Give me a personal tidbit:
I am a 34 year old crafter married to my high school sweetheart.

When did you begin feeling crafty?
I started crafting when I was a little girl and have always loved creating. We have always been crafty and made things for our families. We started selling our creations when my mother-in-law opened a small gift shop a couple years ago.
(Her family has a separate etsy shop called Country Goose Crafts.)

What kinds of things do you sell?
We have varied crafting passions such as candlemaking, needlearts, sewing and woodworking. Creating new items is something that brings us great joy and is something that he and I love to do together.

How did you name your shop?
Our shop name, Kona Creations, comes from our love of Hawaii, which we hope to make our home someday!

In case you go to look at Percival's page and he's gone (because I bought him), he has a friend:

  1. Oh gosh! What a sweet store! Love it! Thanks for sharing. And thanks for my blog button darling! I am trying to remember how I made it, I think I just searched the term "how to make a blog button in blogspot" and went with whatever the first result was. Sorry to not be more helpful. :(
