Cardinal Curiosities by Lydia Beth McKinney

A Little Shop Where We Don't Know What We Are

Cardinal Curiosities was a name born out of confusion. I just like too much stuff.

I love scrapbooking, jewelry making, re-purposing old stuff, fixing and tinkering, and basically any "new" craft that comes along.

I am a teacher (5th grade) by trade - but always had a love of art and music. My grandpa started me early - I tagged along with him as he took classes on everything from jewelry making, stained glass, to photography. He even taught me how to crochet!

My foster parents taught me sewing, gardening, painting, ceramics, and a love for nature and animals. My mother taught me a love of woodworking and natural materials. My dad taught me music - we both played clarinet, and I later learned the viola. He also had a love "for the finer" things - I think he's why I love diamonds.... hmmm....

So now I am here, making what I love with the ones I love. My small family of a husband and two kitties. Life is too short to limit yourself to one love - LOVE IT ALL!

Owner, Designer, Maker, Curator, I Do It All!

I am an avid crafter, jewelry maker, scrapbooker, and all-around art freak. I am addicted to Snoopy and chocolate. I am a 5th grade teacher. I am married to an amazing man named Dennis who is my inspiration.
Minnie

Designer, Maker, Assistant Designer

Minnie wandered her way into my heart as a tiny kitten. She was hired after a lengthy 30 sec.interview snuggle process. She will be making her debut, soon, because I have discovered her teeth marks in a metal piece on which I am currently working.
Tinkerbell AKA Sargent Tink

Curator, Security

Because I often work with valuable materials, a security guard was needed. So, my husband and I (as the commercial suggested) employed a rescue panther. Tink will tear your arm off if you mess with my stuff.
