Helping other veterans and staying true to herself are the two most important parts of Pottsville resident Christie Bavage's earring business.
After serving eight years as an army medic then spending seven years as a sales rep, Mrs Bavage decided it was time for something new.
What started as a hobby making clay earrings soon turned into all things bright and sparkly out of acrylics. So was born business Dented Diva by the self-proclaimed "Dented Diva" herself.
"I like the fine things in life, I like champagne, I like shopping, I like sparkles but then with my military service I'm a bit dented around the edges as well," Mrs Bavage said.
