About Us...
Being a mom of three girls has always had its challenges. After years and years of basketball, volleyball and softball practices, pageant shopping and interview practicing, countless pick up your room and this and that, lots of Sonic slushies, way too expensive coffee drinks, to being their team mom or room mom in school, or volunteering for all the extra things during work, I found myself with time and it created a void and time to think what the heck am I going to do now? Well, I didn't realize I would be slowly substituting my time with my 3 girls to new beginnings with 3 boys...our doods...our doodles! Mr. Hickory, Mr. Axl and Mr. Jax. With the addition of grand dogs, Mr. Koda another doodle and my only girl, sweet sweet Miss Izzy. Love our furbabies! But still had downtime with them all living their best lives laying around my feet :)
Why not add to my craziness and open a little Etsy shop doing things I love to do?
Dusted off the Cricut my girls gave me over 3 years ago. Had a bridal shower for my sister-n-law and made wine glasses with the gals in our family...thankful my niece was a pro and she did it all so I could watch. Still apprehensive...the cricut sat for a few more months when a co-worker showed me on the app how darn easy it really was and I jumped all in. I spent the entire month of November in 2023 creating Christmas gifts for family and friends and I loved every minute of it!
Clear As Mud...the one thing that I say and have said over the last 30 or so years, something I say more than I realized, can relate to EVERYTHING in life, could be the perfect name for my designs and crafting. Because with all that lands in my thoughts throughout a day...as a friend says I am a squirrel trapped in a human body...what better name could I use?
So now...here I am...Clear As Mud Designs.
I'm excited to limit my Netflix binging and put time into this shop. I will make mistakes and I will learn but what I am most excited about is talking to new people through this platform, creating ideas and conversations and spreading smiles amongst all of your faces!
Let's chat! Send me a message and let me know if there is something I can make for you!
Here's to new beginnings and new stuff!
