To help you get to know me and what I do, I decided to answer some normal About page questions!

Why did you open an Etsy shop?

For years I’ve had people say “You need to make an Etsy!” I always sort of wanted to start one, but I was held back by the thought of the work that it would take and the daunting task of branding myself and my work. I finally decided that I could do this! I jumped in with both feet and I’m excited to be on this journey! Thank you for joining me!

Where is your small business located?

I work out of my home where I live with my amazing husband, adorable Airedale Terrier and lots of other pets! My home is my sanctuary and it’s the place I feel most able to unwind, relax and create.

How do you decide on what supplies to use?

My supplies are strongly influenced by my love of color and my obsession with how things feel :) The different brands of clay, paint and paper feel totally different and that definitely affects what project I’ll use them for or if I’ll buy them at all. When I’m looking for fabric, the design is what I look for first and the feel of the fabric is second. I never use cheap, paper-feeling, low thread count fabric, no matter how cute the design.

Who helps you with your Etsy shop?

My Etsy shop products are all made by me! My husband is an amazing supporter of my passion and creativity. My dog thinks he helps, but he mostly just gets in the way :D He loves to climb in my lap when I’m working or get in between my foot and the pedal for my sewing machine.

What is special about your customer service?

Customer service is my actual job! I know how important it is to answer questions quickly and efficiently. I love to make sure that opening a package from my shop is anything but an ordinary internet purchase experience.

What inspires your work?

I can find inspiration anywhere! If I find myself in need of inspiration or just a breather, my pets and nature are my favorite go-to’s! Spending time with my animals is awesome, calming and grounding and nature is where I feel most thankful and grateful :)
