Location Chicago, IL.
Introduction Numare is a self taught jewelry artist who's been creating beaded jewelry for the past six years. I've always enjoyed being creative making everything from painted picture frames to "found objects that people didn't want and refurbishing them. I can recall spending my summers as a young girl in the south with my grandmother who has given me alot of inspiration for why I love to be creative. She always has been a do it yourself crafter and a spiritually wise woman. I crocheted my first bunny rabbit when I was 11 years old and I used to "mess" with her beads and baubles all the time and would get in trouble for playing with them! But little did she know that would spark my interest and love for the way they were put together. My mother worked hard to be an independent business owner and by the time I reached my 14th birthday, momma never punched a clock from that point on. I know that I am well on my way to becoming the woman her and my grandmother has taught me to be through hard work and dedication, because just like the both of them, I love what I do and I have a passion for it!
Interests Creating one of a kind jewelry and hosting bead parties.
Favorite Music Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Common, The Roots, Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, Chrisette Michele, India Arie, Obie Trice, Jeru the Damaja, Incubus, Maroon 5, Kindred the Family Soul, and a whole host of others!
Favorite Books I love inspirational and spiritual books, as well as anything that speaks on living a natural holistic lifestyle.

When you hesitate before hitting snooze on your alarm clock, are you being lazy?

No. I am not one who likes to wake up in an instant an rush to get ready. I rub my feet together, take a deep breath, and rise slowly and thank God for another day he's blessed me with.
