Today's A New Day!

For the last few years I have heard of, seen, and even followed blogs. Until just recently have I had any desire to be a part of all this. I am THE biggest crafty person! I love anything that involves hot glue, a sewing machine, ribbon, or fabric. My craftiness began in college while I was studying Early Childhood Education. The crafts and projects I created for my classroom were so much fun! Low and behold, I ended up a Kindergarten teacher for 3 years. Projects and crafts galore!! I was in heaven! Then I had my first child and as you all know, babies just seem to take up so much time! Go figure! No time for projects! I have been so blessed to be able to be a stay-at-home mom. Fast forward a few years, and our princess arrived. Being a girly-girl myself, I wanted her in everything foo-foo (is that even a word?). So as I started "shopping" online, I began to realize, "I can make that!". My very first outfit involved no sewing machine and a lot of fabric glue. You can say it, ewwww! So I invested in a $99 machine and began to learn. What I learned I loved! I invested in a better machine, and began to create. Every time I had my daughter in one of my "creations", I always got the question, "where did you get that". I needed a place to share my designs! Fast forward another few years, and now I have decided to start my own business. I'm using this blog to sell my creations! In honor of my one and only baby girl, welcome to Emma Reese Designs!
