My name is Sheila and in the autumn of 2017 I decided to follow my lifelong dream and open a little shop that showcased my passion for crafts and imagination. Since I opened the shop, I've been privileged to see not only smiles but also tears cross my customers' faces when the gifts that they commission me to make fill them (and me) with heartfelt emotion. I hope that I can offer you something to cherish, or even allow me to show you how to make it yourself at one of my classes. See you soon.
