House of Baulch

Describe the first thing you ever designed

When I was a kid I used to make crazy big earrings out of fimo. They were outrageously bright and fun, incorporating materials like glass stones, easter egg foil and chains. I was quite the budding young enterpreneur - I remember setting up a card table stallat the local voting day to hawk my wares as people went in to vote - people were very encouraging but I'm not sure that I was exactly pitching to my target market.
