My parents have always supported my creative brain and encouraged me to challenge it for as long as I can remember—even when it resulted in a (pre-Pinterest) Pinterest fail. Then I met my husband. For being a rough-and-tumble 17-year-old, I never imagined he’d see “crafting” as anything more than a quirky hobby. In fact, I was half embarrassed to tell him I was heading to a friend’s house to sew a quilt after a classic wild-hair moment.

But to my surprise, he thought it was amazing—and later I found out both of his grandmothers were crafty women too. I think it gave him a sense of home. (Sorry, dear... putting you on blast a bit!)

Fifteen years later, that little three-person support team has grown into the foundation of what we now call Family’s Creations. It’s truly a family coming together in every way to create—Mom and Dad, Daughter and Son-in-Law, and now Grandsons too.
