As far back as I can remember, I've been creating some form of art. From spending hours coloring when I was young, to sketching, painting, and building sculptures with everything I could get my hands on from paper to lightbulbs. I followed my passion for art to college, graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Cinematography and Graphic Design, which not only strengthened my eye for color and design, but also taught me how to tell a story visually.
In 2014, things began to click creatively for me again when a friend asked me to make some miniature woodland landscapes for her wedding reception table centerpieces. In working on that project, I discovered a love for building tiny environments and dioramas that I had never imagined before. With the urging of friends and family, in 2016 I opened a small shop on Etsy that allowed me to continue to create and imagine these tiny worlds beyond our reality. I'm now constantly thinking of new ideas and learning new skills everyday.
I have since cojuled my mother, a former full time seamstress and crafter herself, to join me with her brilliant fabric art skills, and her sister with her majestry of embroidery, to expand the many creative horizons of Poppy & Dandelion. I still love every tiny creation we make down to the last detail and I hope that they will bring you as much joy having them in your home as we have in making them.
Poppy & Dandelion creations are now available year round in person in booth A16 at Painted Tree Boutiques - Cinco Ranch! Open daily from 10:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. Located on 6729 S Fry Rd, Katy TX 77494 (between HEB and Hobby Lobby).
