| Rachel's Garden pressed flower art |
What once was a hobby, has become a little business. I started gardening just a few years ago. I made the choice to stay home with my new baby girl, Rachel. When Rachel was 5 weeks old, she started having episodes that resembled seizures. She baffled all who witnessed it, and the doctors were never certain what was causing it. During Rachel’s first year, her episodes were consistent. As soon as little Rachel started walking, we never saw her little “seizures” again. I don’t know what that was all about, but I do believe everything happens for a reason . Only God knows the plan for each of us. Rachel and I would go buy flowers, plant them, dig them up, and replant them. After months of gardening 101, Rachel and I finally got it right! Our flowers flourished and were beautiful! It didn’t take me long, to start pressing and drying our beautiful flowers. Through trial and error, I learned what flowers press beautifully. It didn’t take me long to create a use for my pressed beauties. I began making notecards, coasters, and suncatchers. I gave my pretties as gifts, and since then my little hobby blossomed into what I call today, Rachel’s Garden. |
