Hi, my name is Peggy, and I'm addicted...

to PAINT!  Yes, paint.  Seriously if it can be reached with a roller, paint brush or spray paint, I'm all over it!  The walls of my house have been every color from baby poop brown, to yellow stripes, to aqua blue.  I decided, on a whim (typical for me) to paint my kitchen cabinets white...why stop there when you can antique them too?  I HAD to have antiqued white kitchen cabinets! A couple of quick tutorial reads and I was sanding, painting and staining away!
This, I believe, is what led me to the opening of my Etsy shop.
 I had recently decided to stay at home after working 20 years as a physical therapist assistant.  And needed a way to earn extra money.  I had also recently seen on line how to paint a magnetic chalk board wall in your home....yep, HAD to have one RIGHT THEN!  More perusing=discovery of up cycling frames into chalk boards....SWOON!  I HAD to make one...then another...and another!
My parents are Etsy shop owners and are successful at it, So I HAD to open one too!  I tell ya, if it wasn't for their expertise, I don't know if I would have ever sold my first one.  Needless to say I'm not the only one who sells chalk boards on Etsy.  But I did sell my first one, and second...I've never looked back!  This has been the best way, for me, to do something for "me", have a creative outlet, and to earn a lil money too!  Thanks, again, Mom and Dad!!
