Many thanks to Julia, the Etsy shop owner of Julia Wine, for participating in an exclusive little interview for us!
Please tell us about your shop name…
► The name of my shop consists of my real name Julia and alias Wine. I know that it does not quite match the things I sell, but when I was setting up my store I didn’t pay attention to it, and now I think it sounds nice and unique in some way.
Can you share a little background about your logo…
► I haven’t come up with the logo yet. All I have is a shop banner and it is pretty simple.
I just used one of my items and added some text in photoshop :)))

How would you explain your Etsy shop…
► I’ve been making handmade items for a long time, but decided to open a store only in 2011. Before that I was working with my local shop for home decor and toys. ETSY is a great place and I’m very happy to have a shop there, even so it took a very long time to promote it.
Please tell us about the items in your shop…
► I always come up with a new ideas and love to work with new materials, so I have such a big collection of items in my store.
But what they all have in common is an “animals” theme. I just adore animals!
Where do you get your inspiration?
► My best inspiration is my family, my husband and young son!
They like to cheer me up and mess with materials and toys 🙂
Where can we find your work?
You cannot live without…
► CANDIES!
You‘re not a fan of…
► Coffee.
We wouldn’t guess that…
► My first job was a call operator! It had absolutely nothing to do with handmade! So I guess it’s strange in some way.

One day you hope to…
► Build my own house and design the interior… a perfect house as I see it 🙂
Do you have advice for other Etsy shop owners?
► Never give up and never be afraid to set up your etsy shop. It’s not that hard but it takes a lot of time to promote it, so be ready!
If you create thing with love you will always find your way!
