Origami paper flowers are everlasting

You would think by my age one would be pretty set in their ways, but this lover of all things crafty, handmade, and specifically oriental was off on another adventure, that being pretty typical of a left-brained kinda gal. I discovered Etsy and origami, both at the same time. I asked my grandkids what would be a good name for my new Etsy shop and they helped me decide that Graceline Paper Studio would suffice. And so the adventure began. In a tiny house filled with oriental influence, on a pretty fall day in northern California the internet introduced me to Kusudama flowers and I haven't looked back.

My customers mean the world to me, customized orders are right up my alley, and the creation of unique Kusudama flowers for weddings, gifts, and home decor using a specialized Asian craft delights me every day.

My 13 grandkids might consider me a little kooky, as most days they will find me 'folding flowers on my couch'. But I consider myself blessed as Etsy has provided the venue for me to do something that is growing in success AND keeps me content. What more could a grandma want?
