Amanda from Amanda Barkley Design Co.
Meet Amanda from Amanda Barkley Design Co.,
she is our featured maker for July 2023!
"I was raised in my grandmother's flower shop where I was encouraged to create, make and work! Before there were glue guns we used electric skillets with glue pillows that would melt and sometimes get dangerously hot, and there were always two or three available. We created seasonal wreaths, homecoming mums, crafts for visuals and of course everyday florals. My grandmother would put a sweet faux bird glued to a branch on almost every plant that left the shop. It was a magical place to grow up around and what I learned was beyond invaluable."
In one sentence describe...
1. What it is you create/craft:
Anything seasonal that enhances a tablescape or content that I am producing, but most often wreaths and paper products like paper flowers.
2. What is your favorite Surebonder product:
Without a doubt any glue gun in the Specialty Series with a fine tip!!!!!
