So many items out there to be rediscovered!
The items I sell in my shop are found around town, & sometimes in the unlikeliest of places, like rubbish piles (a rose platter) & the beach (rusty beach metal.)
Most of the time these items are sitting in attics & garages, & have been forgotten about.
My passion is to bring them back to life by doing what is necessary & finding a place for them to be truly appreciated!
My work space is filled to the brim of once forgotten treasures!
When my time allows it, I clean, repair, photograph & describe them in detail, all so you know what a gem it is & want to bring them in to your home.

I am a mother first and foremost to 2 darling small children, wife to my hard working husband, & full time home manager. We also have free range chickens; our "new" barn kittens, Lollipop and Cottonwood (litter mates), and Captain Mountain the resident barn cat; & our dog, Pickle, that need us & 5 acres that needs tending with plans for expanding our garden, so my Etsy shop is my outlet of expression, & I am tired of just scraping by, so I work to earn an income. Hopefully in the process of running my business, I can save reusable materials from landfills & encourage proper spending in the first place.

I am a mother, wife, daughter, granddaughter, sister, aunt, cousin, niece, teacher, recycler. entrepreneur, gardener, writer, crafter, decorator, scrapbooker, creator, photographer, hemp jewelry maker, clothes enthusiast, list maker...
I love all that I do & Owner/Sole Operator of "The Paisley Whale" on Etsy, is another title I am proud of!
Now I am also the business owner and operator of "The Paisley Whale, Treasure Cove storefront!!!
I have my business license for my dream storefront that I have been planning for for a decade!! I am so excited! I couldn't do that part alone, though! I have a team of wonderful people that have been phenomenal in this process!

First and foremost, this is for the community, raising funds for those in need & raising spirits for all involved. I get to take my little ones in search of history, providing an outlet for me & a fair price for those no longer appreciating an items value.
I am full-time with my important soul mates: my family, plus making sure everything is appropriate. Keeping them in everything healthy & out of everything else. I feel deeply rewarded, loved & needed. It can be an exhausting, & overwhelming experience. Some may take days off, I don't have those. I enjoy going to work to reduce my clutter at home by selling all those things that I am no longer needing; socialize with other human adults; feel accomplished on a different level; & express myself through my own human experience, in a safe and accepting place.

Check out my shop & you can own a piece of history!
Join me & you can add to your own story, make history & be a part of other's lives.
Come find me at my new storefront, The Paisley Whale, for a personal experience and no shipping costs!
