New Shop & Major Updates

I started embroidering about a year and a half ago when I got a beginner's kit from my brother for Christmas. It wasn't until September this past fall that I began creating my own designs and stitching almost every chance I got. I love my newfound hobby and am growing in the craft and learning what I can about handmade businesses to see where this might lead! Check out the new online shop to see what I've been up to. 
I'll be writing about my experiences with Garland & Pendant and tidbits about my life as a wife and mom as I go!

A New Endeavor

Today's the day! I hit the "publish" button and began listing items for (hopefully) sale!

I hope you enjoy browsing through these creations as much as I enjoy sharing them with you! And there are definitely more where those came from...just currently in process. Seriously, it has taken over my house and most all of my free time! But I love it, and I love the chaos of paint cans, brushes, stencils and random pieces of wood that has ensued. 
Here's a snapshot of what my kitchen table looks like as I type this:

Be sure to be checking back for updates and new listings, and thank you so much for encouraging me with this endeavor!

Introducing Garland & Pendant

I've made the dive into the small business world and am in the works of opening an Etsy shop....Garland & Pendant will have its first ever item listings up and running on Monday, October 29th! Be sure to check out Garland & Pendant's about page and keep your eye out for item updates and listings! 

I am so excited to begin this venture! In the words of Mary Katherine Gallagher:
"There are two different ways of getting into a swimming pool. The first way, you take your toe and carefully test the water's temperature, and if that feels okay, slowly get into the water, letting your body adjust to the cold. Then, there's the second way of getting into a pool....YOU JUMP!"
Here's to all those that are currently taking the plunge....
