Exciting News

I am THRILLED to announce that I will be returning to West Elm to do a round two of being their featured Meet the Maker!! YAY! YAY! YAY!

I loved having the chance to sell my artwork at my first West Elm Meet the Maker.  Allowing customers to purchase my artwork in store was so incredibly exciting and a bit unreal for me.

This time around we are adding a fun way to personal and customize a piece of art right there in store.  I will be bringing LOTS of NEW prints for purchase but also LOTS of empty wreaths that I will calligraphy on the spot for you.  So you can buy a print and tell me what quote, name, initials, and/or date you want hand lettered in the middle, and I will do so right in the store for you.  I am excited to not only sell my art but also share the love I have of calligraphy and hand lettering.

Here are a few items coming with me...

This spring print is a work in progress- still deciding on the boot color!

In addition to my new prints and flower wreaths,  I will also be bringing a hand full of my hand made custom arrows.  These are great for your last name and year of marriage or even for a little one's name for a bedroom.

I have so many new items, I can't wait to share more with you all at WEST ELM!!!!

Here are all the details... MARK YOUR CALENDARS!!!!!!

West Elm Meet the Maker

I am SOOO EXCITED to announce that I will be featured as West Elm's Meet the Maker Artist later this month.  West Elm is one of my all time favorite decor stores.  They have a style and a wide selection of products that I feel can fit every home.  I can not wait to add tons of their things to our new home!  

So knowing how I feel about West Elm, you can imagine my pure giddiness to find that our local West Elm team found my artwork worthy to be featured in the Indy, Keystone store!!!  AHHHH- okay I am a little excited! and super nervous to be honest!  As I have mentioned, I come from a family of amazing artists and I think therefore, I judge myself very harsh.  I have never had a true art class- this is just my honest love of art coming out in words and paint.  Taking a chance and putting my things out there is exciting and terrifying!  But I am trying to stick with the excited feeling!!

So... MARK YOUR CALENDARS... for SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24TH 12-5 pm!!! I will be selling my paintings, with LOTS of new items!!!  Grab your girlfriends and come shop!!!
