Gingerbread men jewellery - Alyssa Smith |
We've recently launched a new feature in Make & Sell Jewellery magazine called How I Started. It's a feature on an individual from the jewellery world about, you guessed it, how they started.
I've been lucky in managing to get some big names, including Alyssa Smith. She's got a strong celebrity following (Sheridan Smith and Dawn Porter to name a few). I thought because of this she would be too big to talk to me, but oh no, she was actually one of the nicest and funniest people I've ever featured.

She started her company straight out of university, even though she "didn't know how to fill in a tax form." Now she's a successful business woman. Her Tweetie necklaces in particular are popular.

I think I like her best because when the magazine came out she posted this on Twitter:
'I put the magazines on the main stand and left all the pages open at my interview. Had to be done! :-D xxx'
Legend!
The magazine is out now so take a look.
