Rawr. I need something soothing to calm my nerves! Everything is so stressful right now. Perhaps you know the feeling? Maybe looking at some pretty Etsy things would help. Luckily, I've found the right shop for that! Enter, Greenwillow!

7) Creation that you are most proud of:My daughter's wedding dress and her professional acapella singing group 19th century costume.
8) Explain your shop name:Greenwillow is the name of a street we built a house on years ago. My husband picked the street name from a record jacket. My daughter lives there now, and she and I began a craft business about 5 years ago and named it after that street.
9) Final thoughts?I create to make myself happy and others happy. I've always loved to create gifts for others, thinking that when they saw my creations for them, they would feel my love for them. When anyone actually likes something of mine enough to buy it, I am still thrilled.
