Friends, we are so sorry we’ve been absent friends the last couple weeks, but we’re back and we’re looking for some new blogs to stalk read. This week I thought it would be fun to introduce you to my partner in crime Laura at Abstract Grace. Laura and I met through our husbands a few months ago and became instant friends. We bonded over our love for music, crafting, sewing, baby girls, and our love for Jesus. We decided it would be fun every week to host “Find a Friend Friday” so welcome to Week 3! Hope you’ll join in the fun! Laura’s also kindly donated some adorable items for The Paxton Project to help raise money for the Miller family adoption.
What inspires you?
Most of my inspiration comes from perusing designer fabrics, vintage children’s patterns, Anthropologie (my favorite!), and my little girl Ella June. Everything that I make is inspired by my own personal tastes, and somewhere along the way that resonates with others who like them too!
What made you start your business?
When you have a seamstress as a mother it’s safe to say you grew up sewing and crafting, and that I did! I had been blogging about my sewing and crafting for sometime, but when I found out I was pregnant with Ella, my sewing/crafting really kicked into high gear. It wasn’t long until people were offering to pay me to make gifts and items for them and that’s how I started selling my goods.
What do you love most about what you do?
First off, I love that running my Etsy shop and blog gives me an outlet for my creative side, and a small break from the every day life of being a SAHM. Second, I love when people choose to buy things from me for their children; to me that’s a huge compliment.
What’s your favorite ice cream flavor?
Strawberry. Mmmm, yum!
What’s your favorite color?
It’s a tie between Green and Pink!
