My name is Melanie Mckenney, I just moved back to my hometown of Buffalo, NY with my husband Justin, our daughter Lyla, and 2 dogs, Blue & Sadie.
I love working with clay, glass, and jewelry.
I was always creating something when I was growing up, out of any material I could find…painting rocks with nailpolish, creating sculptures of fruit, making ant boats out of leaves and twigs.
-Top 5 favorite foods?
I LOVE food…there isn’t many foods I don’t like.
-Is there anything you’d like to try your hand at doing? Knitting, baking, soap making, wood working, an instrument, etc.
I have pretty much tried every crafty creative thing out there.
-A couple of artists/etsy shops you enjoy?
I love the dresses from etsy artist FoldedRoses and AmandaArcher, the prints of trafalgarssquare, and the handbags of babyeverafter.
-One year from now….
I hope to have a thriving business and maybe buy a house or do some travelling.
