But the search for magic continues.
I have spent the majority of my adult life attempting to recapture the childhood magic of Christmas, by creating memories for others in both a spiritual and physical sense. I have focused more than half my creative tendencies on Christmas. Shortly after moving to Lehigh County in Pennsylvania, I started opening my workshop over the holidays in order to sell fresh decorated wreaths. Like Dr. Who's Tardis, my workshop is bigger on the inside than first glance might suggest, fortunately for me, as it sometime got a bit crowded as I offered my handiwork for sale, too—hand-painted furniture, handmade decorations and candles scented with evocative seasonal fragrances.

However, I have changed the focus of my shop to reflect not only my love of Christmas, but also of paper—the texture, the color, and the wonderful things you are able to do with it. Tumble Creek Cottage handcrafted greeting cards are sold singly or in packs of four, eight or ten, depending on the complexity of the design. I use premade stamps, stamps I have designed, my own illustrations, and cut paper, affixed on a variety of cardstock color, texture and thickness. Cards are available for holiday and everyday use, such as a congratulatory message or thoughts sent someone’s way. The cards come in different sizes, including note cards, which can be used for dropping a quick hello, sending a thank you, or using as an invite.
You will also find lovely natural wax candles in both seasonal scents and fragrances specially mixed by me. I also offer gift items and décor, including hand-painted furnishings from candlestick holders and boxes to stools, chairs and tables.

The Etsy community is proof of the renewed and growing trust we have in the quality of careful craftsmanship. I am pleased through Tumble Creek Cottage/Tumble Creek Christmas to be again offering my wares to those seeking products created with hands-on tradition—and I hope I help you find your magic!

Thanks for stopping by,
