About Me
I'm a Texas native, raised in the Texas Hill Country. I grew up creating and crafting with my family. In our small town of 400, we couldn't drop by the store and buy a gift. Therefore, most of our gifts were handmade. Therein lies my passion for handmade gifts. I am also a lifelong learner and with a curiosity to try new things, so my interests range vastly!
Thanks for stopping by and I can't wait to hear about a project you need help creating!
