Featured Seller: CherryOnFire

Who are you?
I'm Teresa and I run Cherry On Fire Studios.

Where are you located?
Durham

What do you create?-
Oh, dear! I do a little of everything depending on the materials I have available. From stickers to paintings!

What is you most popular item that you create?
I would say the most popular items I create are my stickers. I think they are so popular because I recycle everything from junkmail to library discards to make them so each set is inexpensive and truly one of a kind.

What is your favorite place to visit in the Triangle?
My favorite place is The Scrap Exchange in Durham. There are so many little oddities that you can't walk out without a bag full of new possibilities. And, all in the name of creative reuse!

What do you do when you are not creating?
When I'm not creating for friends or for Etsy, I am usually creating music with my band, The Virgo 9.

What is the most time consuming part of your craft/art?
Other than finding the scissors, it's that I handcut most of my materials. With the stickers that means super tiny close cutting. If it's rushed, there will be no stickers.

How do you envision your creations being used by your customers?
I envision my creations being used to make someone smile. Whether that's the customer or if it's used as a gift for someone. Fun is the biggest element in my shop and I hope my items spread a lot of joy!
