crafting, interior decorating, cooking, enjoying my grandkids

I love spending every extra time with my grandkids and watching them grow into adults.


I owned a craft store for several years and enjoy being creative and watching my creativity come to life. I have loved doing crafts with my grandkids since they were born and the time I spent with them and seeing their creativity come to life.


I have enjoyed taking taking care of clients and their needs and building lasting relationships with them.
