Free Ambition:
What
is your business?
Free Ambition:
How
long have you been building it?
Lauren Watring: I have loved arts
and crafts since my first pallet of Crayola Watercolors! I sold items
locally and made friends birthday gifts for years; it wasn’t until
2012 that I decided to start selling online.
Free Ambition:
Are
you currently marketing/promoting yourself?
Lauren Watring: I am! Etsy.com is
a great place where creative people can sell their items. They offer
promotion options each month and I also self promote. You can find
pictures from my Etsy shop and a link to my site on coffee shop
bulletin boards all over the Atlanta area!

fun! I create things to inspire.

Who
inspires you?
Lauren Watring: I couldn’t even
begin to name all of the people and things that inspire me! My home
art room is filled with quotes, pictures and people that inspire me.
Inspiration is everywhere, you don’t have to go far to find it!
Free Ambition:
Where
do you see yourself in a year?

months on Etsy have been a rocking success! Over the next year I hope

people!
Free Ambition:
Where
do you shop?
Lauren Watring: I have always
loved thrift stores, even before the song THRIFT SHOP came out!
Free Ambition:
What
is your personal fashion style?
Lauren Watring: I like a nice
balance between classy and comfortable. One of the many things I love
about Atlanta is that I get to wear my pea coats and scarfs in the
winter and sandals and a sundress in the summer.
Free Ambition:
Who
is your favorite music or visual art artist? Why?
Lauren Watring:
My favorite
musical artist I would have to say is Regina Spektor. She is quirky
and original and just fun to listen too!

I also love to follow local artists and bands. My new obsession and favorite up and coming band is a band called No Sleep they are also Atlanta locals.
