Artist Spotlight

I would like to take today and tell you about 2 wonderful artists here at Hotgers....they are 2 of the 5 of us here, my sisters,  Rhonda Barr and Beth McCarville.

 

Talented people to me....~Anyone that puts in a serious amount of effort into almost anything will become skilled in that area. People put in insane amounts of effort, and we call those people talented.

 

Rhonda Barr~A talented woman who knows her scents!  She makes "too many to count" varieties of potpourris and scents~ for any season! These scents deliver an ambiance here at the shop.....the first thing you hear a customer say..."oh my goodness, it smells so good in here" when they walk through the door...who wouldn't want you house to smell that good? You'll have your friends and family feeling  the same way! These can smell like Warm Cinnabuns to Peaceful Water Gardens~ That scent has pieces of driftwood in it! Each potpourri has a refresher spray you can purchase to refresh your own potpourri.

She offers a line of candles...too pretty to burn..(in my opinion) :)......and good enough to eat...please do not! This woman's talent just does not end...! She is a huge asset to our family business.

 

One of the more popular this season is "A walk in the Vineyard".......you just have to smell this!

Rhonda, Kelsey, Mama, and our little buddy Payton he is also pictured below in photo with "Hupp" as he refers to her as......as we all do now!

You just wouldn't believe this woman. She works harder than most men! She works a part time job a couple of days a week in  Newton also! We all count on her to do way more than we should...but that is because she CAN do  it!

Carving started as a hobby.......

She is Very talented!  She loves to carve...in her spare time!

 This is a hobby???? She is amazing

 She also helps sister Ellen...(me) with my jewelry making~
