The pumpkin is a rattle!! What I love the most is the vision and evolving skills!! Some of these kids have been with me for 4 months and some for 3 years. And they never cease to amaze me😱🎃☠️👽♥️

5 years since I purchased the Fiddlehead cannery.

I build, I dance, I create here.

GRATEFUL doesn't encompass the feelings 🥰🥳🎊🌞

I had a VISION!

I put in loads of time, lots of hard work, and hired carpenters who could execute my vision.

And let's not overlook a fabulous community of people who attend and co-create with me that have helped make this grow into what it is today.

And I'm still envisioning more!

I hope you realize -YOUR DIRECT SUPPORT at the store, and Belle is what BUILT THIS.

I'm proud of this endeavor-you BET!

On a whim, I moved to Maine, trusting the process.

Then...I opened a store, and trusted the process.

Then... I moved the store againand again-moving to Wilton

And I trusted the process.

Each time, trusting the little voice that said "keep going " and knowing. Just knowing.

This doesn't happen overnight. It's often 2 steps forward, 3 steps back.

What I've probably never told people is that I've had this vision for over 25 years. Pinch me!! It's happening!!

When I look back- I CAN HARDLY BELEIVE IT!!

YAY!!!!!

We had a creative vision. And this was the results. Love working with these kids!!
We laugh, tell stories and collaborate.

Classes were HOT! Everyone did an excellent job! We learned several fundamental techniques.

Here's the deal...
Many of you have told me for years to move into my studio, but now it's my idea😂🫣😎😂😂
So...things are changing up.

👻There are a couple of things to consider if you're bringing children. (Which are welcome, I mean, I offer kids classes😉🌻❤️and absolutely enjoy curious minds...!)
I'll have kids' books out for looking through. 😊🦋

***Children must be supervised AT ALL TIMES *KEEP hands to yourselves. Things are fragile, and people have spent a lot of time working on pieces that are in the studio. look with your eyes

*WALK. No running.

*No playing in the studio.

*Stay on pathways and driveway and OFF the sculptures in the gardens.

Saturday 10-5
Light snacks.

* Park along the tree-lined driveway, up against the tree stumps or
there's parking behind the building, and you can walk up the side of the building if you prefer.
*street parking and walk down
*parking lot at Kineowatha for play and walk over

I'm looking forward to seeing you.

Ahhhh, the Maine woods. What a beautiful place to be. As if sprinkled with magical, happy calming pollen or magic dust.

Something happens to people here. We breathe deeper, and we return to our inner peace.
For good reason.
These were inspired by my own experience.
As always, thank you for sharing and following along in my journey.
Coming soon to Rangeley heritage days September 20th. I'll be at @thefarmersdaughter. Come see me! 🌲🏞🐝🐞🦋🌻
