🚨THIS FRIDAY AT NOON!🚨

My LARGE FARM FRIENDS PATTERNS are FINALLY being released! Yes! You read that right.

You’ll be able to grab them right here on the page on Friday at noon then over on Etsy starting on Saturday.

These primitive farm friends have been a huge hit for me and the patterns have been a long time coming, and I know a BUNCH of you have been waiting on them ever so patiently! ❤️

There may be a few OTHER new releases too! 🤭

Maybe a new pattern…
Maybe more than one…
Maybe something you’re not expecting at all. 😏 My sweet assistant has been a very busy girl getting all of these ready for us, while I’m busy in the workshop finishing up orders.

Good Morning friends! Hope you all have an amazing weekend!

❄️🎄 THREE NEW PATTERNS ARE READY!!! 🎄❄️

My assistant and I have been busy behind the scenes getting these sweet primitive Christmas friends all finished up, and I’m so excited to finally say all 3 patterns are READY! ❤️ And more on the way!

🐑 Winter Friends Sheep Can
🦌 Santa’s Helper Deer Can
🐑 Winter Sheep Sitter

Each pattern includes the full-size pattern pieces, supply list, and step-by-step instructions so you can make your very own! I kept these projects simple, primitive, grubby, and beginner friendly — just the way I love them. ❤️

And I LOVE how these three look together. You could make one or make the whole collection for your Christmas decorating or upcoming shows!

🎄 ALL THREE PATTERNS ARE AVAILABLE NOW here to purchase at 9.99 each or in my Etsy shop. The cans do come with the printable labels. We can also print and ship for additional shipping.

If you’re loving these, comment WINTER with the pattern you would like below and I’ll send you the payment links.❤️ Or head on over to my Etsy shop 😁

🍂 LOOK WHAT MARIAN HAS BEEN MAKING! 🍂

I absolutely LOVE seeing what you all create with the FREE printables I share! ❤️

Customer Marian has been using the fall printable I shared a few weeks ago and turning it into these adorable primitive fall jars! 😍🍁

I love how she used different jars, added the labels, tied them up with jute, and even added lights to one. Such a simple idea, but they turned out SO CUTE and cozy for fall! 🧡

Thank you so much, Marian, for sharing your creations with me! Seeing you take one of my printables and make it your own is exactly why I love sharing these little freebies with you all. ❤️

🍂 Who else grabbed this free printable when I shared it? Have you made anything with yours yet? I’d LOVE to see what you all came up with!

✨ 🙌🙌Launching Soon 🙌🙌✨

Raise your hand in the comments if you’re a Maker, a Creative a Vintage & Antique dealer or even a Shop owner!🙋🏼‍♀️ (This will help this post get seen!)

I’m starting something special for you.

For over 30 years, I’ve been blessed to live a life doing what I love.

It all started with a few handmade items that my mom and I made together and a dream.

Since then I’ve owned shops, traveled to craft shows across the country, sold in antique malls and vendor malls, designed hundreds of patterns, written books, been featured in magazines, taught thousands of painting and crafting classes, and spent decades learning what truly makes a handmade business successful.

I’ve made the mistakes. And still do honestly! 🤫

But also I’ve celebrated so many victories.🙏

And I’ve learned lessons that you simply can’t find in a book.

So….
Instead of simply teaching you what to make…

or even just how to make it…

I want to teach you how to build a handmade business you truly love.

Because the truth is…

My greatest passion has never just been creating product.

⭐️It’s creating an experience.⭐️

Designing booths that stop people in their tracks.

Merchandising products so shoppers can’t wait to pick them up.

Mixing handmades with vintage antiques and Creating beautiful displays that make people linger…

…and buy!!

Helping makers discover what actually sells.

Watching someone turn a hobby into extra income…

…or even a full-time business.

That’s why I’m so excited to finally share what I’ve been quietly working on…

It’s EVERYTHING I wish someone had taught me when I first started, that I had to learn all on my own. I sincerely want to help you!

All of this inside a private group just for those serious about taking that next step to success!

More details are coming soon…Keep watching. Sign ups will be launching in Mid September! Just in time for the 4th Quarter!

And I truly cannot wait to take this new journey with all of you. 🤎

🍂 🤎CUSTOMER BRAG TIME! 🤎🍂

I just have to brag on one of my sweet customers, Rosey, for a minute! 🤎

She shared her finished Rosie & Rhett scarecrows made from one of my new Sweet Harvest patterns, and oh my goodness…LOOK AT THEM!! 😍🌻

I absolutely LOVE seeing what you all create from my patterns. Rosey did such a beautiful job bringing these two to life, right down to all those wonderful little primitive details. And that glowing pumpkin beside them is just perfect! 🎃

Thank you so much for sharing your finished Rosie & Rhett with me, Rosey! Seeing my designs made by your hands is one of the BEST parts of what I do. ❤️

Everyone give Rosey a little love for these two cuties! 👏🍂🌻🤎
