Sometimes in the midst of running the shoppe (planning classes, making samples, running private parties, ordering retail and supplies, developing retreats, paying bills, sweeping floors, laughing and loving and living a creative life), I forget about this little ol’blog on our website. (Uh-Oh!) 

I am constantly moved deeply by the awesome people who come into our shoppe. I am touched by the friendships I have made, and the friendships I see being created within our walls. I am in awe of the trust so many people have when coming to a class – people who walk in not knowing a thing about art or what they have ahead of them, and leaving proudly with their heads held high and their awesome art piece in hand.  

Most importantly, I am proud of what we have done in 2019. Those who know the story of Creative Wings Art Shoppe know that this year has been one of healing. When I look back, I think we have done an amazing job – together – towards healing. And I am forever grateful to each of you for being here. 

2019 . . . you’ve been pretty good to us, so far (and we are not done yet!)
