Have You Seen This Etsy Shop?

Little Bird in a Beehive came into being on Etsy in January of this year. The creation of Benita from Melbourne, Australia, the shop houses gift tags, cards, handmade paper, accessories, earrings, brooches, and hair clips. Though Benita is now a full time secondary teacher, teaching English to students who speak other languages, she has not forgotten her childhood passion. From an early age she was a crafter, even painting found snail shells, and selling necklaces on her driveway. Now allowing the snails to keep their shells, this entrepreneur uses old book pages, watercolour, sewing and stamps to bring her ideas to life. Asked where she gets her inspiration Benita responded, "All over the place, art blogs I read, a leaf I walk past in the street, a piece of fabric I see, my mum, a bird or plant in the garden, a scrap of conversation I hear in the playground, a market, a gift..I think the more you act on the things that inspire you, the more likely things are to inspire you.. you just have to be open to the inspiration".
