Biography
I have always had a passion for beautiful paper, fabric and embellishments and the countless ways they could be combined to create something unique. As a life-long crafter and sewer, I have enjoyed creating handmade gifts for family and friends since I was little. Ten years ago, I decided to combine my creative talent and business sense to start my own company, EAB Designs. With the wonderful support from my husband and two young daughters, I began selling my handcrafted picture frames to the public through gift shows and retail shops. Today, my collection includes frames, albums, journals, accessories and unique gifts, all of which continue to reflect my passion for the finest papers, ribbons, fabrics and handmade materials from around the world.
Please feel free to leave me any comments or questions. I enjoy reading each one.
