Read my second part blog post about my business story, from my journal in January 2022. Learn how I successfully launched a handcrafted jewellery business made in Bristol, the lessons I learned from my parents and their experiences of racism, and the values that drive me to run this business.
Discover the story behind Pink Lime Mango, a handcrafted jewellery business born out of the pandemic. Founded by British artist, Vicky. Inspired by nature, architecture and creativity, I work through difficulties and turn my passion into a thriving business. With my sister's encouragement, I overcame the obstacles and learnt new skills, including building a website, and managing social media. Despite facing fatigue caused by a rare blood cancer, I remain dedicated and passionate, balancing work and rest, and taking time for creativity and personal development. Follow the blog to explore more about my journey and enjoy the colourful and unique pieces of jewellery I create.
I celebrate two years of running my handcrafted jewellery business and reflect on how far I have come. I look at the creative, financial, and marketing skills that have been gained along the way.
