Celebrating Memorial Day

Typically we would be kicking off Memorial Day with a family camping trip to the Hocking Hills in Ohio. Our kids would explore the caves, and our shop puppy would enjoy the hikes. But, as it is for all of you, this year is a little bit different. This year, we're able to take time to pause and really appreciate those we've lost through service. We are thankful and grateful for all of them and their families for their sacrifices.

We're a mother-daughter duo crafting because we love to. We're not out to become wreath-making millionaires (is that a thing?). We just want to share what we do with others.

Our story starts with us making wreaths for friends and family. Making all of the floral arrangements and bouquets for my wedding and my sister's. From there we started doing more. More wreaths. More arrangements.

In 2012, I was sitting home alone on a Sunday. My husband had been deployed to Afghanistan. My parents were hundreds of miles away. And I found myself on Etsy. Then, I had an idea. Why weren't we doing this? Why hadn't we thought of selling our pieces? And so, we did.

I called up my mom and said, "We need to be doing this. Our stuff is as good as this. Let's try it!"

I signed us up for a three-day festival as a vendor, and we crafted as much as we could working up to the big day. We started gobbling up all of the flowers we could...slowly transitioning my basement into a floral warehouse. The big debut day came. We set up our first tent. Our first display of what we'd been working on for months. And with the first day of the show also came tornado warnings and severe thunderstorms. We battened down the hatches as much as we could the first night and prayed all night long that our little booth and all of our goodies would survive. The next morning, we found our tent still in tact...less a few pieces. Our first show wasn't a huge success, but boy did we learn some things! Number one being, and I'm quoting my business partner (my mom) here, "No more outside shows."

Zoom forward 8 years and here we are. We ships our pieces across the country from coast to coast. We host in-home wreath-making parties. We now only participate in two large (indoor) shows. And our business is blooming. It's all thanks to all of you. And we couldn't be more grateful.

So, take a few minutes to read more about what we do, what we've learned, and how we're doing. Connect with us. Comment and share. Ask us questions. We're ready to share our nest with all of you.
