Hi all, Cheryl here and I just wanted say Welcome to The Feathered Gypsy Boutique & More!
I am so excited to have you visit my store! I just wanted to give you a little background about who I am and how The Feathered Gypsy Boutique began.
First, why Feathered Gypsy? Well I have always had a love for birds. I think that stems from the fact that 3 of the most important women in my life all shared that same love. I am intrigued with the color and detail in their feathers and how they enable them to soar freely throughout life.
Second, I have always been a free spirit marching to the beat of my own drum. Life should be about sharing, kindness, giving of yourself to others, spending time with your TRIBE, and overall enjoying the little things.
And now..... how did I come to start this business? I have always found peace in creating. Painting, photography, taking something old and making it new again. I started out with photography and found that the editing process was my happy place. Being able to transform the images that I captured into a beautiful memory for family, friends and eventually clients. I practiced and studied in photoshop and began creating designs and graphics. I made a few t-shirts here and there and loved the process. I eventually stumbled upon the process of sublimation and that is where is all began. I realized that I could create so many different items with this process. I invested in some equipment, researched, read, watched a million tutorial videos and began making items for family and friends. Then 2020 COVID hits! I was a nurse who had an extremely stressful job and COVID just added about 10 times more stress to my daily life. I decided that happiness and health were so much more valuable, so I took a leap of faith and resigned from my nursing job, registered my business and buried myself in the design and build of my business. Scary right, but oh so worth it to be stress free and HAPPY!!
Again, thank you for visiting and remember to live Happy & Free!
Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.
