Patient Blooms

January 24, 2017

Let’s get our hands dirty in the white Minnesota snow with natural winter beauty and blooming bulbs (and I’m not talking about the burned out bathroom bulbs). As winter interest has a place in my home so in my home has it been an interesting winter. Read on to see just a slice of my recent life through the eyes of an apple seed (or two) – it may just be what the doctor ordered.

Valentine’s Day Printable!

January 14, 2017

Let’s get V-day crafty!  Sooo, it’s that time of year again when all the reds, purples, whites, pinks (blah, blah, blah) colors make their abrupt appearance onto my tables (notice ‘tables’ is plural?). Ahhh, yes, crafty love is in the air – and the table and floor and on doors and in the living room and windows…at least at my house anyways.

Gift Certificates Now Available!

October 19, 2016

Hmmm…what size is she?!
I hear it all the time, “I have a friend who loves hats, but I don’t know her size”  or “my sister loves hats, but I don’t know what color she would like.”  I understand that feeling of really wanting to give something special, but also not wanting to mess it up!  Bound to be Creative hears ya loud and clear and now offers Gift Certificates! Giving your girl-pal a gift doesn’t have to be hard or stressful. A Gift Certificate to a custom made cloche hat (pronounced “clawsh”…trust me, I Googled it) and HIP Mini’s in my shop allows your mom to choose her own lovely reversible hat (or fleece hat!) and your niece to drool over her own  HIP Mini colors!

An Experience
Does your person need the full-on treatment to see fabrics and get their head measured?  I take home-studio visits by appointment.  Head measurements, a delish array of fabrics to choose from and personal consult on colors and styles just for them.  I’ll have the piano music playing and coffee brewing 😉

For the perfect way to earn the title “BFF” go to www.boundtobereative.etsy.com and get your Gift Certificate today!

Why I re-branded

October 19, 2016

website-social-media

My story of re-branding is more than just a new look. It’s a story of passion for hats, passion for my customers and whole heck a lot of drive. Although I work in the downstairs level our home….there’s something about being connected to all that’s around me.  Yes, my space is beautiful, bright and effecient and it totally rocks, but it’s so much more than a space.
