Artisan Entrepreneurs

Gary and Yanira Smith, the creative founders of MyClaynation, LLC, share tips, advice, and insider knowledge about everything behind-the-scenes in the handmade industry. Including conversations on art, design, handcrafted clays, and what it takes to succeed and thrive in this niche but rapidly growing industry. Some segments will be interviews with other designers, artists, clay-makers, and badge creators. And from the less aesthetic but more practical side of the handmade space—we’ll also cover topics such as why artists need a website and how to take better product pics of your hair bows, flower crowns, and other creations—made by you! It’s a mix of interviews, co-hosts, and solo shows from Gary and Yanira as they talk about the handicraft industry from the creative artisans’ perspective that you won’t want to miss.
