My Roots
Hey y'all! Well.. where to begin..? My name is Heather and I absolutely LOVE to paint! I am a farmers wife, stay-at-home mom, and business owner. I have been creating, painting and making for as long as I can remember. My parents always encouraged my creativity and imagination by allowing me to do all sorts of crafts despite the big messes I would make. They let me paint and repaint my bedroom and bedroom furniture (that I was always rearranging too).
When I started my business I started out by redoing/painting furniture. Then I started making home decor from reclaimed wood and vintage pieces as well. I did all of this from our garage with a little kiddo at my side. I would take furniture pieces and home decor items to vendor shows as well as sell locally through my growing facebook page. Eventually, I decided to try my hand at painting some flowers on some old windows. I felt a spark in my heart and a nudge from God. I decided to take these paintings to my next vendor show with other home decor items and furniture pieces. This ended up being my worst vendor show ever. I only sold a handful of items and NONE of them were any of my paintings. Despite not selling a single painting.. I still couldn't help but feel that THIS is what I was supposed to be doing. So, I listened to that nudge and followed that spark. I created enough paintings to do a launch of them on my website. Every. Single. Painting SOLD OUT within MINUTES. I cried. All the happy tears and I thanked God. That was back in March of 2019 and I have been painting flowers full of texture ever since.
So, there you have it.. I'm just a small town Kansas girl who's a wife, mother, business owner, painter, free spirit, adventurer, dreamer, hard workin', all American girl who belongs among the Wildflowers & Pistols. :) And I am so, so happy that you are here!
