I NEED your help.
What classes so you wanna see this season.

I am planning out the calendar for September and October...and well truthfully until New years.
We have a whole bunch of NEW classes, and NEW Items.
Kinusaiga- Japanese art of painting with fabric!
Halloween Candy holder -Great for a family activity
Fall Decor class- Porch signs, door signs, wall signs ( umm... we have so many new fall pieces!)
Door Mat class- Fall decor/Halloween decor
Barn Quilt class -NEXT WEEK! (sold out!)

Here are a few I am mulling around.
1.-Of course, the original OG deco class for Holidays.
2-Bejewel your decor. Add some sparkle to some Holiday art pieces with some rinestone art
3. Ornament classes ( at least 2) from an ornament bar.
4. Holiday Barn quilt
5. Holiday Kinusaiga Pieces
6. Cross stitch holiday decor.

Please please please throw the number of the one that interests you the most. The more you respond, the more it gets seen...the more I can bring what you want to try for the season!

We need to talk.

AI IS a great tool for a lot of things.
It could even be a great place for inspo.
However..it's making things a little challenging for me.
How do you know its AI?
It's getting easier to spot.. but the measurements on here on a little inconsistent to start.

Today I was asked if I could make this.
This exactly.
Because AI said it was possible to be made out of wood.

I can always make a version of this. The detail alone on this would make it a 500-600$ piece.
It wouldn't look like this but could have some of the same elements.

Ai can be helpful. It's can also be misleading.
Just be careful :)

Monday Brag Post ( Its still Monday right?)

This was for one of my OG clients, who I absolutely ADORE, and is incredibly talented!
This was grown from an idea, with some inspo, and some really fun back and forth to make the perfect piece for an afternoon at home just being creative.

I love her coastal grandma era.
What do we think?

Stunning.

I have a question for all my momsā€¦ šŸ’œ
How many of you wish you had measured your kidsā€™ height somewhere like this?
Because honestlyā€¦ these growth charts aren't just dĆ©cor.
One day those little pencil marks become reminders of how fast everything went. From the first measurementā€¦ to suddenly realizing they're almost grown.
As I send my youngest off to university... its all the feels.
I absolutely LOVE creating these personalized pieces because every single one becomes part of a family's story.
This one was made especially for a little girl and I can't get over those butterflies and flowers!
If you've been thinking about ordering a personalized growth chart for your little oneā€”or as a giftā€”send me a message and let's create something special together.

I've been working on some new projects and have a few fun classes coming up for September & October.

šŸ‘» Halloween Candy Box DIY
šŸ Fall-Themed DIY Class
šŸ§µ Kinusaiga Fabric Art Class

The Kinusaiga class is something completely new for us, and I'm really excited about it! If you've never heard of Kinusaiga, it's a really cool way of creating artwork using fabric instead of paint. I think you're going to love this one!










There are lots of different options coming up, so whether you're in the mood for something Halloween-y, something fall-inspired, or want to try something completely new, there's a little bit of everything.

All the class details and registration are on the website:
