Shellie Smith Handmade
Address
I'm Shellie!
I reside in a cute little cabin in the woods in the beautiful Ozarks in Arkansas with my husband and 2 amazing kids. We also have 2 dogs, ShaDough, the black lab and Bubbles the Corgi. We love to go hiking, camping, and traveling. I've been sewing, crocheting, and crafting since childhood. It's something I love and enjoy doing. I hope you love my work too.
A little background about me... I'm a Cajun girl born in the early 80's from south Louisiana. I met my husband online in 2004. After marrying we lived in south Mississippi for 14 years. There, we were farmers. We raised rabbits and had a 10-acre garden. We sold veggies and flowers at farmers markets and operated a Community Supported Agriculture program for about 4 years. We also operated a plant nursery for a couple years before moving to Arkansas.
I have an Associate Degree in Horticulture Technology from Jones Collage.
I'm very much intend to get back into the homesteading type life we lived back in Mississippi.
I work full time sewing boat seats for Ranger right now.
Sewing, crocheting, crafting, gardening, canning, cooking, and raising animals is what I crave. This hobby of making and selling my handmade items is part of that life for me. This is more than just a hobby though; it also helps me to do something that I love to pay the bills.
