Introduce Yourself: ​  Hi! I’m Klaryza, I’m a self-taught calligrapher based out of Saskatoon, SK. I create items from cards, home décor art pieces, to customized items for weddings. I’m a wife and a mom, and I spend most of my free time on my family and learning more about calligraphy.

What is the name of your shop and how long have you been open?  My shop is called Klaryza Calligraphy.  I have been open since 2015, so about 2 years.

How long have you been doing your craft? ​  I started lettering when I was 15 (back in 2003), but rekindled my interest in 2015.​

How did you get started?  My dad had a book all about different lettering styles and in 2015, I saw a post on Instagram about modern calligraphy. That’s when I decided to re-learn lettering.

Where can people find you online?  
I have an Instagram account: @klaryzgraphy

What do you like about selling on Etsy?   ​It’s very easy to use, and my page looks professional without any hassles. The community is great, and I can reach a lot of audience through Etsy.

What brought you to Etsy?  I have seen from an Instagram account that they sell their handmade products on Etsy, and so I decided to check it out. ​

What's been your best Etsy experience?  Best experience for me was when someone contacted me for a big custom order. Most of my orders are customized and I like making them because it means a lot to the customers.
