Making beauty out of ashes

Christine Gitau started her own pottery company after losing her job and had to feed. It all started when she was going through her belongings and came across a book on ceramic art and since she was a creative person, she gave it a trial though it was a hard lesson. Many are the time she could make pots and end up not selling even one because they were bad, but she never lost any hope.
But determination pays, today Christine make ceramic art on commission and has employed four people, private clients form the bulk of her orders and she really makes real profits.
She encourages those who want pursue their dreams and have no money that one can start where is with what one has. She started with only Kshs2,000 and her at her mother's house but now has rented a premises. These talks have really encouraged those who are unemployed.
