What led you to where you are today?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have always been crafty. When I was about 7 my grandmother taught me how to knit. That started my love of making things with my hands. From that I started doing mosaics when I was about 10. I had to stop doing that because my mom hated me breaking all the pretty plates I could find. So then I read a book about crocheting. It had an article on how to start so I was off to the races. Then I ran out of people to give blankets to, so I switched to cross stitch. So here I am now. I love making wreaths and centerpieces. It\u2019s all I think about any moreI knew since I was a little girl I wanted to own a business. It is in my blood and soul! When I was young I had lemonade stands, back yard carnivals, a dog grooming business called \u201cPerfect Pooch\u201d and a babysitters club. Always working on building my own company. As I got older and like any entrepreneur I tried and failed, tried and failed again. I finally gave up and continued to get promoted at my 8-5 accounting job, but it did not satisfy my need to create and be challenged like entrepreneurs do. Some of you know what I mean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1q8o8ch5u48ua.cloudfront.net\/images\/detailed\/152\/6844F565-F86A-4B8D-BCA0-685AA35E5200.jpeg?t=1600305583\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"340\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tell us about what you make? Why did you choose the products and style you create?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I make <a href=\"https:\/\/goimagine.com\/?subcats=Y&amp;pcode_from_q=Y&amp;pshort=Y&amp;pfull=Y&amp;pname=Y&amp;pkeywords=Y&amp;search_performed=Y&amp;pshort=N&amp;pfull=N&amp;pname=Y&amp;pkeywords=N&amp;match=all&amp;pcode_from_q=N&amp;currency=USD&amp;sl=en&amp;q=wreaths&amp;cid=0&amp;category_id=0&amp;dispatch=products.search\">wreathes<\/a> both grapevine wreaths and deco mesh wreaths, and centerpieces. The possibilities are endless. If I can think up a design I can make it. It\u2019s all I think about, I\u2019m always thinking of designs. I love flowers and the flowers on the market today are very realistic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Where does your inspiration come from? What helps with your creativity?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Basically my inspiration come from my imagination. When I\u2019m having a difficult time coming up with an idea I do look at some wreaths or centerpieces on Etsy. Mostly for centerpieces sometimes I just can come up with ideas for them. But once I find one I like I always can come up with my own designMy inspiration honestly comes from my customers. I get so excited when they are happy with my product. When what I design works for them like it did for me. If they need something specific, I come up with a design to fit their need. My mind is always working to create an item to meet a need or an odd shape cushion cover they couldn\u2019t find anywhere else. I truly love helping my customers find something to fit their needs and style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What does your creative process look like?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As far as grapevine wreaths. I look at what cute or funny signs I have. Then I start putting on the greenery, then placement of the flowers that will match with the colors of the sign. Then I start to add some of the fun stuff like pumpkins in fall or whatever I have on hand like leaves. Then it\u2019s time for the ribbon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the wired forms, it always starts with the colors of deco mesh I have. Then what signs I have, like fall I need Fall sign or scarecrows or gnomes and for me l usually stick with making ruffles with the mesh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/zmdownload.zoho.com\/view?attachId=138200247604020090&amp;entityType=1&amp;entityId=1600731960192100001&amp;accId=3002074000000008002&amp;height=1024&amp;width=1024\" alt=\"\" width=\"251\" height=\"335\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is your favorite product you make or material you work with and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My favorite is both kinds of wreaths. There just so many possibilities. Whether is a big floppy bow or a beautiful flower. Or the awesome signs or just some of the cute little dodads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Is there anything else you would like to the world to know about you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am a hardworking handmade shop owner that sells my designs most of the time with very little profit. Mainly because I offer free shipping and shipping prices have gotten very expensive. I\u2019m not trying to get rich I just love what I do. Which makes me a perfect fit for the amazing platform that is Goimagine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Thank you so much Lori for sharing a bit about yourself.
