“I have been creative since I was small. We didn’t have enough money for art paper and supplies so I would draw in the dirt and paint on rocks. Lately God has called me back to my bead desk to make jewelry again. It is exciting to see the designs and ideas that flow through and how to fit them together. It didn’t feel right selling these pieces so I started giving them away to people who are making donations to help others through this time. It can be just using this time to clear out your closet and donate to Goodwill, giving $20 to the next person in line at the store, or paying it forward at the drive-thru. Just pick out a necklace and let me know. We will get through this and maybe come out a little kinder if each of us finds a way to help someone else through this. It feels good to be creative again.
(If you want a necklace, message Norma Jean Burns on Facebook)
(I am now doing Soul-cial distancing interviews by phone. If know someone I should interview, send me an message or email. [email protected])
