Terri was asked about her favorite holiday sweets and she said, “The Christmas treat that I look forward to most is homemade toffee a friend of mine makes.

Bring a little Spring to your tree this year with Keepsake Artist Edythe Kegrize’s Brilliant Butterflies Ornament.
Edythe was asked where she draws inspiration from for her beautiful designs and she said, “I look forward to the butterflies of summer! As the flowers in my garden are starting to emerge, I have been looking at plant catalogues and making plans to add more plants that attract butterflies and birds. I find working in my garden very calming and a good physical workout as well. The color combinations and forms of plants and flowers often influence my work. I am sure I will be working some of my favorite colors into my next nature inspired butterfly design.”
