Where are you located? Mebane, NC
What do you create? I make little robot/space aliens from junk, mostly oil lamp parts and other metal objects. I make fabric banners from upholstery samples and other fabrics. I also like to alter vintage housewares, and I dabble in photography.

When did you start creating? I've been creating since I was a kid. In high school, I made a life-size person out of junk (literally, junk), so my work in that medium began around my late teens.

Where do you create? Right now I create in my office at home, but I'm working on turning a small bedroom in my house into a craft room.
Why did you choose your shop/company name? I perform as a bearded lady under the name Ouida de la Goutteire, so that's where Ouida came from (it's a homonym of the name my brother called me when he was little). Just before I opened my Etsy shop, I bought a big steamer trunk from a thrift store. I was storing all of my vintage finds and craft supplies in there, hence the trunk.

So after you've checked out Theresa's etsy shop, swing by and like her facebook page, too!
