Interview: Christine Morris

1. What exactly is hemp and how do you make things out of it?

Hemp is like a type of string. But other things can be made of hemp. Hemp jewelry is made by twisting, tying and knotting the string in a specific pattern depending on what is desired.

2. How long have you been making things out of hemp?

I started getting into it about three years ago

3. What made you interested in this?

Some one made me a hemp necklace with glass beads. I liked the way it looked. After it is worn in, it is very comfortable. You can put any kind of beads you want on it and you can tie it in different ways to give a different look.

4. What do you do with your items when they're done?

I make some for myself but i mostly sell them

5. How long does it take to make a necklace?

It depends on the necklace but usually about an hour

7. How did you learn how to make them?

My friends and husband

8. How much do you sell them for and where do you sell them?

I will sell them for various prices. It depends on the cost of the beads
and what was made. Bracelets necklaces and anklets can range between $15 -
$25. Some beads are more expensive. Locally blown glass beads are generally
priced higher.
