About Me
I am a friend, cousin, niece, aunt, sister, daughter, granddaughter, wife, mother and grandmother–all titles I cherish! I love to doodle, craft and create. My love for crafting and creating started when I was a young girl.
An early memory of one of my first crafts was at Christmastime. It started with the hope to make gifts for my family members. I had done crafts with my grandma and mom but this was my first time to make something on my own.
I went to the hardware store to look around. There was this long one-inch-wide plastic faux wood that had a peel-off side that looked like a good fit for my gift idea. I cut it into 8 and half inch lengths and attached them to letterhead paper on the top and bottom and added a string on top for hanging. Writing quotes on them was my next goal. I was in 3rd grade at that time and we were learning calligraphy using calligraphy fountain pens. I found quotes that applied to each person and wrote their quote on each one.
The one I remember the most was for my grandpa. He was an early riser, so I wrote on his, “The Early Bird Gets His Own Breakfast!” He loved it so much he hung it by his recliner! I have been creating and sharing ever since that Christmas!
“But to what end were we created? We were created with the express purpose and potential of experiencing a fulness of joy. Our birthright–and the purpose of our great voyage on this earth–is to seek and experience eternal happiness. One of the ways we find this is by creating things…as you take the normal opportunities of your daily life and create something of beauty and helpfulness, you improve not only the world around you but also the world within you.”
– Dieter F. Uchtdorf
