Each ornament is glittered, painted, and strung by hand by yours truly, here on Anna Maria Island. My little garage studio comes alive with glitter once a year and I spend all of my creative efforts glittering and then painting as many ornaments as I can manage. This year, I’m excited about some new designs and am still hustling to bring back some old favorites. I’ve also adopted a more streamlined approach to the studio process and am proud of the amount of these hand-painted beauties I’m able to offer. Also new this year is the ability to buy the ornaments ONLINE! It’s a big task, but I’m happy to do it. RatherBeCreative.com is ever-evolving and slowly becoming the hub I want it to be for all things Creative. Figuring out how to present one-of-a-kind artwork in a convenient and user-friendly shopping online experience is important to me. I love connecting with my Collectors and fellow creatives in all ways, so thank you for being here with me!
