The Story of my sign


I had the shop opened without any sign for a month or so, not know exactly what I was going to do. Then I remembered a friend of mine that did wonderful creations revamping old pieces of furniture, etc. She also does some one-of-a-kind cards by painting and adding her own special touches. I said to myself " I wonder if I could get my friend Glee to paint a sign for me?". So one day I packed up an old sign that I had purchased earlier and stopped at her house to see what she said. She gladly accepted my offer. I showed her my design that I had picked out and she did it all by hand for me. If you look close enough among the forget-me-nots you will see her signature. I picked the forget-me-nots because they are so pretty and delicate and recently my mom passed away so everytime I see the sign I think of her. She was able to come and see my shop before she died. I was thankful for that.

The artist name is Glee Bilderback from Galena, Illinois. THANK YOU GLEE!!!!
