About Me:: My sister, Nancy and I have been in the craft and needlework business for a very long time. We used to produce needlework and craft kits that were sold in the major craft stores. Then we switched to books, starting with counted cross stitch. We now produce books for a large publisher.
We're semi retired so we have more time to make things that we like to do instead of having to always appeal to the mass market. We love paper art, atcs, collage, ephemera, etc.
We've accumulated lots of stuff through the years and now want to share it. We have paper and ephemera galore. Also lots of fabric.
Barbara has a background as an L.A. art director and Nancy has a degree in anthropology. We're just starting in Etsy and are completely
addicted but still a little confused.
Our studio is in an avocado grove in Southern California.
