18k Gold-Plated Dangle Earrings with Hematite Gems 'Sea Bohemian' Item ID: 2671641525

"Before I joined Novica, I had to use a credit card because I didn't have enough income to spend on my daily life. But now I don't use it at all because I have enough cash flow. Novica has given me more knowledge about choosing the best materials to make my jewelry. I constantly study jewelry trends, to make my jewelry designs more attractive. This has opened my eyes up to the world a lot more. I keep improving my design and quality, and as a result, now I earn more from selling jewelry through Novica. This allowed me to let go of my concerns about the unstable cost of living. I've been doing what I love and still continue to earn more.

"The most important advantage of this work is that I have more time to spend with my children and family. I'm very happy that I don't have to go away to work. I don't even need a shop. Before I joined Novica, I couldn't give my children the choice of what they wanted to study and was unable to allow them to experience what they want. With the increase in my sales through Novica, I was able to send my daughter to travel to America when she was in grade 8 when she had an opportunity to learn and gain experience with the English language and different cultures. My daughter loves learning English very much. I think she has a talent for this, and so does my son. I, therefore, encourage them to study the English Program, which has a much higher tuition fee than the normal program. I’m really fortunate that I can make enough income from my Novica sales to pay for my daughter to live comfortably in Bangkok, as it is known that the cost of living there is very expensive.

"Novica is not only giving me enough income to be able to support my family, but also allowing me to take care of my father at home because I don't have to travel back and forth between home and workplace. My father has heart disease. He is very happy and his heart feels warm to have me by his side all the time. I would like to send a million thanks to Novica for dramatically changing every aspect of my life and my family. The sales revenue with Novica has given me great relief from the current uncertain pandemic situation. Most importantly, I would like to thank all of my Novica customers for your support in purchasing my products. Your purchase really helps me and my family. God bless all of you."

Original Artist Story

"My name is Sareeyakarn but my friends call me Fai.

"I was born and raised in Lampang, where my father was a farmer and my mom made clothes. I liked to go to the rice fields with my father. I loved its atmosphere and the beauty of nature. There were all kinds of colors and patterns in the leaves, grass, feathers, butterflies — everything had its own details and was beautiful.

"When I was young, my uncle was my inspiration. He loves art and drawing. He likes to take scrap wood to make into interesting objects. When I was in first grade, he gave me a ballpoint pen to draw anything until the color became darker. Then he took my drawing and pasted it on the back of a jeans jacket, as a background. After that, he used a pen to draw an old movie poster without erasing anything. This was all so amazing for a little girl like me. He inspired me to do the same things that he did. I kept learning and doing it by myself.

"Then I started entering art contests. I was excited when I won an award and I was encouraged to continue with my artwork. One of the awards I was most proud of was third prize for the invention of anything from natural materials when I was in primary school. These awards were sponsored by Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn, the King's second daughter. I created a doll from rice straw.
