About Me

Me, me?? What about me? There isn't much to say about me. I am a jewelry designer based in Belgium. Who, to make ends meet, works in bookstore. Why myspace, blame it on my sister. She convinced me to give it a try, and now I am hooked. My bloggs are few, and mostley filled with my frustrations of working in the store. Beeing a shopgirl isn't my dreamjob.
