#OWomaniya : The 'glitter' of this 'bug' can surely make your day
By Tarry
Hi
my sweeties and lovelies…..
Recently,
some of you emailed me asking why I stopped the column ‘O Womaniya’. Well
actually, I did not stop it. Afterall, there are never enough of women who are
doing an amazing job with entrepreneurship. But somehow, things were a bit
belayed.
However,
‘O Womaniya’ is back and in action.
Meet our new ‘O Womaniya’ Anmol Shetty, who through her brand Glitterbug
is making lovely and affordable jewellery…. From passion to profession and now,
superb passion…
Meet Anmol and her ‘The
Glitterbug’

Tell us a bit about
yourself dear
A
Mumbaikar at heart now settled in Bangalore after marriage, I have completed my
Engg & MBA in Finance but working in the corporate world didn’t cater to
the creative streak in me. So after shifting to Bangalore I decided to start
off on my own with the support of my husband.

How did The
Glitterbug happen? And how did the name come in?
Well,
I always wanted to do something like creative, where I make something with my
own hands. I started researching online and came across stunning beaded
creations by the Beaders in USA, and this beaders association is what inspired
me to get into handcrafted jewellery designing. Afterall, the pleasure of
making something with our hands is simply out of this world.

What does The
Glitterbug offer to all lovers of jewellery?
The
normal perception about handmade jewellery is that it is not classy enough, that
it cannot compete with readymade accessories in terms of quality & most
importantly, it can only be worn with ethnic wear. My aim is to design pieces
which cater to women of all age groups and for different occasions. Hoops,
Dangling earrings ,charm bracelets, anklets, necklace sets made with glass
beads, metal as well as semiprecious beads. One can also check out our exquisite
range of imported European charm bracelets.

How has been your
journey so far?
Each
day is a new learning opportunity for me. At Glitterbug, we believe in
constantly challenging ourselves to come up with even better designs to keep
our customers hooked & charmed, quite literally. The Glitterbug recently
celebrated its 1st anniversary & we have almost touched 3000 followers on
FB. Off late, on popular demand we have even started participating in selective
exhibitions across Bangalore. But we ship across India.

What has been the
happiest and most memorable moment with The Glitterbug?
Every
appreciation we receive from our beloved connoisseurs is a new feather added to
our cap. With the amount of love & support we have received in this short
span of time, it’s hard to pick & choose one special moment.

Any hiccups or
challenges in the journey and how you managed them?
Our
biggest challenge is customizing jewellery to suit the tastes of women from
different cultures & cities. But, it’s a challenge we enjoy undertaking. Also
just like any other field, we face a lot of competition , but as time passes by
The
Glitterbug is working on setting a benchmark for others to follow
-
What are your future
plans?
Our
biggest aim right now is to have our own website, although we are thriving well
on Instagram and Facebook. For The Glitterbug, the sky is the limit
and I just want to see the glow of the bug all across the globe.
