I am Amy: mama of four, wife to my high-school sweetheart, and creative enthusiast. I am so glad your creative journey has brought you to Positively Splendid!
As the daughter of an accomplished oil painter and a gifted sewist, I spent my childhood in a home brimming with paintbrushes and sewing notions. My profound love for all things creative began just about the very moment I first wielded a pair of safety scissors, and creativity has always had a significant impact on my life. Positively Splendid was born in 2010 out of my desire to help others discover their own innate creative potential. Since 2010, it has been my pleasure to write many unique, photo-rich tutorials to inspire my readers to create something they can be proud of with their own two hands.
PS is dedicated to a creative lifestyle, where heart and soul are poured into projects in a way that enables you to master new creative skills to enrich your life.
