Busy, busy, busy!

Well, I am back after a whirlwind couple of weeks. I was in Nashville, MI, doing the Pig in the Poke Spring Fling show, then was off to Ohio for Market. I had a booth with Beecharmer's Cottage in Nashville, and I have to say our booth looked amazing! Check it out!




I will be in Breckenrige this weekend, March 28, for the Promise of Spring Breckenridge Antique & Folk Art Shows. Be sure to stop by! This show is amazing.

Feeling nostalgic...

I recently acquired a collection of love letters from the 1950s, and have been completely absorbed following the romance of a young soldier and his soon-to-be bride. Enchanting and fascinating, I can't put them down. I keep telling myself, "just one more letter..." and read on into the night.

Inspired by the correspondence between Donna and Richard, I created this piece...

Welcome to my studio...

I love collecting pretty things. Vintage fabrics, delicate stips of lace, forgotten photographs... these are the things that inspire me. With the snow pressing in on the windows, there is nothing quite like settling in my warm, cozy studio and sorting through buttons and antique hardware, a hot cup of coffee within reach.

I will be posting dates of my upcoming shows and events. In the meantime, if you want to see more of my handcrafted items, check out my Etsy store.

Welcome to The Poet's Daughter

Even though the ground is blanketed with snow and the trees are bare, the promise of spring lingers in the crisp air... This profound optimism inspired me to do something I have been meaning to do for ages: create a blog.

I am excited to share some of my latest creations. I am currently at Heritage Markets Show in Valley Forge, so be sure to check back next week as I will have pictures to share.

See you soon!
