– now co-owner of Divas Art and Craft Store
Hot, tantalising, sexy, electrifying, dynamic, explosive, and numerous other words can be used to describe the stage performance of this young and oh-so-talented Guyanese-born-and-bred singer, songwriter Shelon “Shelly G” Garraway.
Guyanese are accustomed to her customarily saucy and outright provocative and raunchy performances and that would have been the main contributor to her remarkably large fan base.
However just recently, fans have been clambering with even more excitement, now that the talented song bird has opened the Divas Art and Craft Store at Avinash Complex, Water Street, Georgetown.
Garraway co-owns this business with her life partner, Corwyn Williams of CFW Family Entertainment Inc.
While she is not giving up on her music by any chance, the songstress wanted to do something different, and as such, ventured out to make a fashion statement and do something classy that stands out on in the fashion arena.
She is of the belief that for ages women have battled with the unpleasant experience of having to deal with fading jewellery and accessories and it is with this in mind, she opened the Divas Art and Craft Store.
“Using authentic stones and beads, we are continuing to wow our customers with our clean finish, and intricate styles we add to their pieces. To guarantee ultimate customer satisfaction, we inculcate the use of ‘non-fade’ materials to ensure jewellery does not fade or change colour,” she told Guyana Times Entertainment.
Upon entering the store, one’s mind is transformed into a colourful world of clashing colours and brilliant hues and shades, as the very attractive pieces are displayed at strategic points in the store.
There are pieces there to suit any aspect of society, and practically persons of any descent can be assured they will find something there to meet their needs.
The pieces assure sophisticated evening allure, bubbly fashion statements, outdoor free-spiritedness, sensual captivations and so much more. In addition, cultivated beads and precious stones are transformed into breath-taking jewellery in shades of jade, turquoise, topaz, hazel, and hues associated with different moods.
The sea shell necklaces and bracelets are astounding, and the earrings are certainly items to die for.
Management is offering to have interested persons trained in the art of making jewellery. They can be contacted on telephone number 698-6530, and can be followed on their Facebook page – Divas Art and Craft.
Garraway has been singing since the age of six, starting in the church and continuing in her school dorms. She eventually auditioned on a talent exclusive show, and earned herself a lead recording roll at Dynamix Recording Studios.
She does it all, being versatile in everything, including soca, dancehall, reggae, chutney, R&B and soul. To get a taste of her ‘intoxicating flava’, just check the music on her albums, available at http://www.shellygonline.com.
