About Christina
Creating art, particularly with attention to detail and personal aspects, has always been a passion of mine. When my husband proposed in 2006, I knew that I wanted our wedding to be unique and a celebration of our love, while also telling the story of who we are. We were married the following year, and our wedding was full of unique and personal items. I handmade all of our paper goods. Our favors were also handmade and gave our guests each a keepsake and remembrance of our story. Shortly after, my passion bloomed into my business- creating paper goods that tell the stories of my clients.
Today, I not only offer clients personalized and detailed paper goods but I enjoy creating other unique one-of-a-kind keepsakes. While during wedding season you will most likely find me working on invites, programs and favors it is not unusual to see me creating hand-painted ornaments, platters, plates and Family Trees.
Why the Tree?
In a lot of my pieces you will often see a tree. You might ask why. There are many symbolic reasons behind my use of the tree. Trees are a symbol of both strength and growth. Have you ever seen a tree thriving on the ledge of a mountain or in-between the crack of a concrete sidewalk? Trees adapt and grow. They bend and continue to search for the light. One could even say that a tree is representational of an individual, a couple or even a family. One of my first personalized pieces was a watercolor and ink that I created for my now husband and I. It hangs in the main hallway of our house. Reminding us daily of our strength, both individuals and as a couple.
