DO YOU LIVE IN FORT WORTH??? I have not been back to @shopsmallfortworth in close to a year 🙀 but I’m BACK next week for Art Journaling 101!! Tag your DFW friends - excited to see y’all! #mintandmapleworkshops

Because it’s Friday 🦠🦠🦠 Abstract expressionism?

It’s been SIX YEARS this month since I started a little @etsy shop called Mint & Maple. I spent weeks brainstorming with Josh what to name it. I had nothing meaningful at the time - I just knew I liked to paint and letter things. A few friends who saw my work told me the word “fresh” kept coming to mind, so I googled “herbs and trees” and after going through lists and lists and writing down words I like, Josh and I landed on “Mint & Maple” 🎉
It’s been fun looking through old pictures remembering my humble beginnings. My studio doubled as our kitchen table and my supplies were stored in our small, first apartment entry closet. I spent countless hours addressing envelopes on our couch while The Office, 30 Rock, or Gilmore Girls played in the background. I had family and friends help me build my displays for events with @renegadecraft and @theswoonevent. Stated sharing a studio with @go_rings and @kristinafaji. Got to work with @ifgathering, be in @austin_monthly, and on @studio512tv. How truly FUN!!! Many friends helped me brainstorm what Mint & Maple could be as it evolved from freelance work to teaching.
This front pic is my very first workshop I taught in 2015 for some dear friends- over 4 years ago!! Crazy to think I’ve now taught over 2500 students all over Texas.
I’m thankful for all these things (good, bad, hard, ugly, and amazing) God has taught me. While it hasn’t always been rainbows and butterflies, it’s been exactly what I needed. Never has he used something so unexpected to refine, grow, and build my faith more. And here I thought I was going to be a social worker 🤷‍♀️
