Natasa Marinkovic double majored in Sociology and Behavioral Studies—and then took a completely different route and received a Diploma in Beauty Therapy. For 10 years, she became the sole owner and operator of a successful beauty salon. During those years, she also devoted herself to her passion of journal making, book binding, teaching, and most of all, creating something out of nothing—or rather—turning trash into treasure. Her YouTube channel, Treasure Books, currently has over 200 videos (many of which are tutorials) has grown quickly in a reasonably short amount of time. Because of the success of this venture, she now devotes herself to Treasure Books full time. Natasa resides in Melbourne, Australia.
