As the proud owner and creative spirit behind The Rusted Willow, I bring over 21 years of marriage to the most amazing man and the joy of raising four incredible children into my work. I also cherish my role as Nana to three beautiful granddaughters. My passion lies in transforming items through thrift flipping, crafting unique handmade pieces, and celebrating all things vintage and antique, which defines my creative journey.

One of my favorite pastimes is exploring thrift stores in search of hidden gems. I have a soft spot for old furniture and often find myself wanting to save every piece—at least, I try! There’s something immensely satisfying about giving pre-loved items a second chance and turning them into remarkable and beautiful creations!

I invite you to join me on my creative journey through my YouTube channel, where I share tutorials on flipping and crafting. You can also catch occasional updates on Instagram and my Facebook page. This platform offers a more personal, behind-the-scenes look at my projects. I love sharing the step-by-step process of bringing my ideas to life, from thrift store finds to stunning furniture transformations. It’s a space where I connect with fellow DIY enthusiasts and showcase the magic of handmade craftsmanship.

In my online store, you’ll find a thoughtfully curated selection of unique items. Each piece tells a story and reflects my love for thrifting, decorating, and DIY. Whether you’re searching for a meaningful gift or a one-of-a-kind addition to your home, I hope you discover something that resonates with you.

Thank you for being a part of this creative journey. It’s a joy to share my passion for thrifting, decorating, and crafting with you.

Together, let’s create something truly beautiful!
