welcome!

i'm so glad you've found the Pleated Poppy!

let me introduce myself: i'm lindsey. i'm most defined in my role as a stay at home mom of three kiddos: gracie is 5, lily is almost 3, and silas just turned 1. i've been married to my entrepreneur husband, sean, for 8 years now (wow!). i'm involved in my church (women's ministry, mom's group, and seasonal decor), but most of my time is spent at home. to offset how much i give myself to the kids, i like to be crafty and creative as a personal (let's be honest: selfish) outlet.

here's how this all started: after starting my personal blog, imperfect, awhile back, i decided to try to make all of my gifts for christmas. you can see glimpses of it here. then some friends and i decided to host a spring boutique, where i sold some of the items i had given as christmas gifts. well, i got the bug! i sold my stash that was leftover from the boutique on my blog, then kept getting requests for more. i've since expanded the items i make, and am always trying something new.

check back here often as i'll update my "shop" as often as i'm able (as often as the kids let me!).

enjoy!
