ABOUT

Developing my creative backbone very early on, I grew up (in rural Ohio) in a very dynamic family.  

My father, a master carpenter & my mother, a career mom with a penchant for crafts 

& bargain shopping, together instilled their work, hobbies & interests in me.

​

In high school I began to create my own things (clothes, crafts, jewelry, etc.) 

out of necessity (i was a broke kid), which quickly turned into a hobby & passion!

In college I learned how to do all sorts of useful things in studio art classes like: 

etching, ceramics, photography, drawing, sculpture, silk screening, book binding & paper making.

In addition to studio classes, I focused on computer art & took an array of graphic design courses.

Other mediums I dabble in are collage & mixed media, water color, embroidery stitching, basic sewing 

and so many more!

Everyday new projects & ideas flood my brain!  

The places I get the most inspiration from are stores like: 

anthropologie

the salvation army

goodwill

m&j trimmings

mood

michaels

& blick

I will continue to do my best to keep my ideas original and up to date!

Hope you enjoy my blog.

Love, 

Amanda
