Business sells handmade goods

A new business selling handmade goods has opened up in Umina.

The shop Colourful Creations offers glass-beaded jewellery, paintings, clocks made from records, hand painted glass picture frames, and hats, according to owner Loreen Konig.

"After having stalls at markets and festivals for many years, I've decided to open up a shop to display my wares," Ms Konig said.

Originally from Toronto, Canada, Ms Konig has lived in Australia since 1992, and on the Central Coast since 1998.

"I have a business school background and have entrepreneurship in my blood."

Ms Konig works in the shop with her husband Bruce and daughters, Teagan and Venita.
