Welcome to my "fun" business

2008-03-09T23:19:00.000-05:00

For the past twelve plus years that I have been with my husband, he will randomly send me flowers or a gift signed "Just Because"! I have always loved that! In his mind, it doesn't have to be a special occasion to give me a happy, he does it just because...
I love painting and arts and crafts. It is very therapeutic and fun for me. Once I get the kids to bed at night, I sit up and "play" and have Mommy time! I have been very busy for the past month or so making Christmas presents. Not making gifts because I couldn't afford to buy them as arts and crafts can be costly and very timely to say the least but making them because I enjoy it!
I have always thought about owning my own business one day, a gift shop to be exact. It's just some random thought (as I have many) that I have "toyed" around with in my head every now and again. After much consideration and persuasion from loved ones, I decided to share some of my work. If you see something you'd like or have something else in mind, please email me at melanieshea78@yahoo.com and I would be happy to make it for you. As I am no professional artist, prices are very reasonable.
