Faith, Courage and Strength


I saw the story of Zach and his struggle with cancer. He was a strong boy and I know that he is looking down on his family and friends and watching over them. If you haven't heard his song "Clouds" take a listen. I am so grateful for every day that I get to spend with my two little ones and the love that they show me every day.

1. Tell me a little bit about yourself 
My name is Anusha and I live in MA. I am currently a college student balancing school and my Etsy shop. I have one Etsy shop called PrasadDesigns, a jewelry shop. 

2. How did you get into making jewelry? How long have you been doing it?


I have always been interested in crafting, particularly in making jewelry. I started when I was young and decided to turn this hobby of mine into a business. I decided starting with Etsy would be a great way for me to learn how to run a business. 

3. What do you like to make the most? 


I enjoy making all types of jewelry but I really do enjoy making sea glass pendants

4. Will you be adding earrings to your shop?

I have had earrings in the past and sold those! I am currently working on creating some more earring designs. 

5. What is your best selling item?



That depends! I think most people enjoy my necklaces. But a lot of people have bought my bracelets as well. I sell offline and online.

6. Do you have any advice for someone wanting to start their own business?
It takes times to build a business. You have to make sure your product stands out and try to find a niche for it. You also have to be passionate about what you sell. 

7. Anything else you want to add?
It’s been a slow start but I really enjoy what I do and would love for people to take a look at my shop! I am happy to answer any questions!
