I started selling in mid-September on Etsy. Still remember that first sale like it was yesterday!! I just checked my hearts today and then I felt the love! 2474 hearts in such a short period of time! WOW! I love each and every one of those hearts too! I can't thank you enough for supporting what I do!! Thank you so much!
Also today I woke up and saw my Mint-Chocolate-Chip Sky print on the front page! That is always a good way to start the day!
AND THEN--- I found out that SpittingImage wrote a lovely blog feature about me!! I love it!!! Made me smile ear-to-ear when I read it... seriously!!!
What an awesome day! Thanks so much to all you out in EtsyLand!! You make my life wonderful!!
Hi... my name is Kim Ripley (formerly Sobanski). I am 29 years young and I am from Mount Clemens, MI. My passion lies in art, photography, and creating jewelry. I graduated from Wayne State University in Dec. 2005 with a BFA in photography. I would have to say that I have been an artist my entire life. I think I was born with a crayon in my hand.
When I am not busy creating I enjoy other things. I love thrift stores, antique shops, and yard sales. I have always got my eyes open for strange, tacky, and kitschy things. I am also obsessed with searching out Ebay and Etsy for neato finds!
Which leads me to my next interest- found objects. I collect found items (photos, letters, shopping lists, etc.). I am a huge fan of Found magazine and I even have a 2-page spread of photos and a letter in Dirty Found #2!!
I am currently married to the love of my life~ Joe (we've been together since Nov '99). We have a daughter, Chloe Pearl, who was born in December 2009. We also have one min-pin dog named JoJo.
We hope to make it out to Vegas someday and get out of Michigan.
