| More About Me | I live in Easton, Pennsylvania, USA, with my husband, Jim, and our bunny, Woolie Bear. I love outdoor activities, hiking, biking, snowboarding, and kayaking. We have recently purchased a piece of property upstate and are in the process of building a home in the woods. As in, we are doing most of the work ourselves, which has been an amazing experience so far. I've spent most of my adult life working as a massage therapist, energy worker, and yoga teacher, and running a very busy wellness center. I absolutely loved it, but started to get burnt out after 24 years. Also, I really, really missed making things and having a creative outlet. Over the past few years, I have transitioned into my current business. I feel so lucky, because I love this work even more than what I was doing before. I just love to be immersed in the whole creative process of this business. I get to work from home, which is awesome. I also really love the whole business aspect too. Building my website and all the other administrative stuff that goes along with it. I'm kind of geeky that way, but it keeps me grounded. |
| My areas of expertise that apply to handmade business: | I literally started designing cards and paper goods at the age of 5. I have been completely obsessed with beautiful paper, cards, and lovely paper designs for as long as I can remember. Quite a few years ago, I decided to take classes at the local community college in web design and graphic design. It was really just a fun thing for me. A creative outlet. To my surprise, I absolutely fell in love with graphic design. When I began designing invitations and paper goods, people quickly became very interested. At that time I decided to go for it, and Magnolia Street Paper was born. |
