We are thinking of our neighbors in SWVA and are grateful for the first responders and organizations that are providing assistance. Virginia's Blue Ridge region (Cities of Roanoke & Salem and Counties of Botetourt, Franklin, & Roanoke) was fortunate to sustain minimal damage from the storm and our local businesses are open and ready to welcome visitors.

My flower making hobby started in NM where I met an accomplished seamstress that showed me how to sew ribbon flowers. My love of flower making blossomed again after the birth of my first daughter. That's when embellishing hats and hair accessories became my favorite way to express my creativity (and how I avoid my household chores.)
I now squeeze time in my craft room or studio between working full time at as an elementary school librarian, teaching art classes to Crafty Kids, and raising three beautiful gals of my own.
