Hi, my name is Kat! I love making stuff…if I don’t make something every day, I start to go a little nutty. Even making dinner counts; I just have to CREATE! I had this idea many years ago to just blog about whatever my current project happens to be, so you can do it too!
Nice to virtually meet you 🙂
But how often do you find a project you want to make, only to discover it’s nearly impossible unless you have prolonged patience, fat funds and tons of time (can you tell I like alliterations)?
I keep all this in mind when I break the projects down step-by-step, provide tips and tricks along the way, and provide patterns I made myself, often for FREE! That way we can all have our cake and eat it too (I do like cake).
You may have noticed I have a cherry problem, and while that may be true, not all my projects are cherry-themed! It’s also worth mentioning I am a few kinds of crazy for other things as well which includes but is not limited to: Christmas, Disney, Dance, Harry Potter, Gaming, and DOGS!
Here’s a bit more about me…
Grew up…
Oregon. Hence my passion for recycling, beading, and being a hippie granola earth child of sorts.
Education…
Associate of Applied Arts (AAA) in Fashion Design – The Art Institute of Seattle
Career…
Designer at a porcelain doll company (mainly Disney Princess!)
Got married & moved to Iowa in 2011 then worked at a community college starting in the Wind Energy program
My first child was born in 2017 & I left my job to stay home with her.
Now I’m a stay-at-home mom of 2, blogging, Etsy shop-keeping, and I’m a Zumba Instructor!
How do I do it? Everyone has spiritual gifts, and one of mine is creating stuff! I understand gifts are for others, not for myself, to ultimately bring glory to God! Cherry Fairy Tale shares this magic with you.
