I'm blessed to be the mom of three amazing children and the incredibly proud Nanna of eight wonderful grandchildren who keep my heart full and my life wonderfully busy. Sharing this journey with me is my best friend and life partner, Craig, and of course our lovable English Bulldog, Lulu, who believes every project deserves her close supervision (usually while snoring nearby!).

I've always believed that beautiful things deserve a second chance. What many people see as an old teapot, forgotten bottle, chipped china, or weathered piece of wood, I see as the beginning of something special. That's how Tea Garden Whimsies was born.

Every wind chime, bird feeder, hummingbird feeder, wreath, planter, and garden creation I make is handcrafted one at a time with love, creativity, and a little imagination. No two pieces are exactly alike because I enjoy letting each vintage find inspire its own design.

Nature has always been my happy place. I love creating pieces that invite hummingbirds, butterflies, songbirds, and pollinators into our gardens while bringing smiles to the people who visit them. My hope is that each creation adds a little peace, whimsy, and joy to your outdoor space.

When I'm not creating, you'll probably find me cheering on the Georgia Bulldogs, spending time with my family, exploring flea markets and antique shops for hidden treasures, or dreaming up my next garden project.

Thank you for visiting Tea Garden Whimsies and supporting handmade art. Every purchase helps give forgotten treasures a beautiful new purpose, and I couldn't be more grateful to share this passion with you.

Welcome to my little garden of whimsy!
