A week ago, I got an email from a customer. She saw my letter photos at Prattville Pickers and wanted to make one for her son. I put together several options for her to choose from. She made her pick, and I framed it up. Easy as pie.

I delivered it to her today. Thats when I found out she bought 2 framed names from me 13 years ago at Prattville Cityfest. Wow! How fun is that! And since then, she’s picked up a few more from my shop at Prattville Pickers.

I love to hear this and I’m so very grateful for all my patrons! Y’all are awesome!!

🌻Sunflowers symbolize longevity, loyalty, good fortune, intelligence and happiness, to name but a few. Other meanings include focus, healing and warmth. They are the gift of choice for 3rd wedding anniversaries.🌻

All kinds of weather, we stick together
The same in the rain or sun
Two different faces but in tight places
We think and we act as one 👯‍♀️🎶🎶

Here goes with a new name and a new pic and new goals!😅 I’ve felt a nudge from friends, family and fans for too long now. Today is February 1 so I’ve already let a month of this new year pass by. I finally decided to be more intentional about sharing the things I make and sell. Thanks for the follow! Lots more to come from The Bluegrass Birdie!😊
