Welcome to my blog!

Hello! My name is Kelly Riemenschneider. I live with my husband and two dogs in Hudson, Wisconsin. We have one grown daughter.

Now that I have more time, I can let my imagination and artistic expression flow. Being creative means being curious. I would like to show you ideas that make you curious. If you are looking for inspiration for your next project, we are on the same page!

I have been crafting and creating in the kitchen since I was young. I learned to knit when I was seven. I have grown my interests over time. I enjoy knitting, painting with acrylic and watercolor, sewing, quilting and working with wool felt. I enjoy cooking, baking and trying new recipes. I have started trying eco dyeing techniques and teaching myself to crochet. I am left handed, so I look for teaching videos for lefties. It makes it so much easier to learn.

We have two King Charles Cavalier Spaniels. https://www.akc.org/dog-breeds/cavalier-king-charles-spaniel/.

Oliver is black and tan. Graham is a rescue. He has white and tan coloring called a Blenheim. They are a British breed of a toy spaniel. They are very friendly, affectionate dogs that love nothing more than to be in your lap.

I have had a long career as a Licensed Practical Nurse. I worked many years in a hospital setting, worked in Homecare and Hospice. I just finished out my career working as a school nurse for the past 13 years with 18-21 year olds with disabilities. Now I would love nothing more than to share the joys of being creative. It is a great way to relax, unwind and leave some of those worries behind for a while.
