CRAFT TOWN
Brooches were especially popular. Because of their small size, they fit easily into tourists’ carry-on luggage and made perfect souvenirs, so visitors often bought several at once — for themselves and as gifts.
The entire production process was completely on me:
• product photography and visual content creation
• packaging, label, and logo design
• creating sketches in CorelDRAW for laser wood cutting
• hand-painting brooches with acrylics
• sourcing and ordering materials
• decorating and organizing the workspace
• presenting the company at events, local markets, and public spaces
• client communication and order management
• brand promotion and visual strategy development
• bookkeeping and business organization
It was a lot of work, but I truly enjoyed it. During that time, I learned so much: how to work in a fast-paced environment, handle multiple tasks at once, quickly connect with people, stay open to new opportunities, and constantly keep learning. I remember that time with incredible warmth.
