At first, she started an online store for jewelry, while she was still in school.
These days, she is creating and selling the most fantastic interior miniatures.
As with so many miniature artists, she went to university and then had a full-time job, but that made it hard for her to find her creative voice.
So after one and a half years, she decided to leave and follow her heart to a more artistic career.
With the help of Etsy's blog called "how to quit your day job", she learned how to create a business for her art, and after that, she created a store on Etsy.
All of this developed into focussing on miniatures and in this way Wei Xu got a lot of big clients, like Madewell, for which she created a miniature version of some of their popular clothes. Isn't that cute?
Check out all her miniature tutorials on Etsy.
This had a snowball effect and more big clients followed, like Pottery Barn Kids, Walmart, and Hunker.
Also, Wei Xu has been featured in CBC Arts magazine, Chatelaine magazine, and Buzzfeed Nifty.
