Hey Curvinistas!
I haven’t done a reader feature in awhile, so I am so excited to share Craft Lace Creations by Aelicia Mechele! Now do you all remember “gimp” and lanyard crafts from back in the day? Well, my friends and I use to create all sorts of knot patterns like the “Cobra”, the “chinese stair case”, “the zipper”, etc, and use them as key chains. Now a days, most kids just play video games and watch TV, so I haven’t seen anything like this in YEARS! When I saw Craft Lace Creations’ accessories, it took me wayyyy back! Not only has Aelicia revived a lost art form (yesss this stuff was serious), but she put her own spin on it by making it into unique jewelry!
What inspires you to create new pieces?
Aelicia: Seeing OOTD photos that focus on accessories is very inspiring. It pushes me to create pieces that look great with any outfit. Mistakes that I’ve made while crafting can be inspiring too. When it happens I take notes and use them to come up with something new.
Describe the woman who you envision wearing your pieces?
Aelicia: A fashionista who absolutely loves color and appreciates pieces that stand out. She also knows how to make a statement with the right amount of arm candy. Someone like
@ahsiek1118 comes to mind. I like her style!
Do you plan on expanding accessories line?
Aelicia: I’m actually expanding as I go along on this creative journey. I often experience 2AM light bulb moments when ideas pop in my head. Anyone who enjoys crafting knows exactly what I mean. As an artist even if you don’t plan to expand it will naturally happen in one way or another.
How can someone purchase these?
