When I was a little girl, a friend of mine got me into beading. I loved creating things like keychains, pins, bracelets, etc. So my parents bought me this big box to keep all my beads and string in, and that was my hobby for a long time. As i grew older, my bead box got pushed to the back of the closet and forgotten. Years later, my mom was cleaning out all my old items and brought my bead box bac
k to me. Before I knew it, i was creating again! My beaded bracelets and necklaces soon turned into hand stamping. As for the name - My son likes to watch me work on my necklaces... we like to sit there and talk about this and that as I work. When I told him I'd like to turn this into a little side business, but I needed a name for it. As we were taking a walk down our trails one day, I thought about how I'd like to incorporate wildflowers into my business name. Because like my jewelry, every wildflower is just a little bit different (and to be honest, sometimes a bit scraggly and imperfect), but always beautiful and interesting to look at. We talked about it as we were rock hunting down at the creek crossing. He wanted to name our shop The Creek Crossing. I wanted to name it Wildflower. So as I was poking around with ideas in my head and on Etsy - I typed in Wildflower Crossing, hit "view availability" (or so I thought... I actually hit Save) Sooo... wah-lah! Wildflower Crossing was born. With all that being said - I hope you'll think of me for your next gift-giving event or holiday, or for when you just want to treat yourself! Some of my things will be my random creations, others will be personal and customized. If you see something of mine that you'd like tweaked, or if you have an idea of something I might be able to make but you don't see on my page, please don't hesitate to ask! I love creating and am always up to try something new! Thanks for stopping by, hope you enjoy!
