It started with jewelry, beading, sewing, home decor, painting, basket weaving, pottery, and cross-stitch. Marry that to an entrepreneurial spirit & at 9 years old a girl is selling her wares at craft fairs as far as her parents and grandparents would drive her.

Her style is approachable and she wants everyone who sees her work to feel that they too can embrace creativity and make their home and life beautiful.
