"When I was little,
my grandparents lived far enough away that we didn't get to see them
too often. So, to keep them close to their first grandchild and what I
was doing, my mother used to jot down humorous happenings and momentous
"firsts" on 3x5 cards and send them to my grandmother, calling them
"KatieDids." It seems only fitting that I should name my business -
creating the beautiful things that I love - after those first
"KatieDids," and pay tribute to the two wonderful women in my life who
have always encouraged me to be creative and share my creativity with
others.
"This business has evolved out of my
love for creating beautiful things, and from my love of finding that
perfect something for a gift or for the home. So often I've found
myself making wreaths or curtains or other decorative items simply
because nothing ready-made seems quite right. I know I'm not alone in
this. So many women I've talked with have also spent hours looking for
something - only to come home empty-handed. Sometimes the color is hard
to find. Sometimes it's the style or size desired. And sometimes we
come home empty-handed because our budget won't allow us to buy what we
find. For most of these instances, I just come home and make it in the
right color or size or make a less-expensive version. But not all women
can or want to do this. That's why I've created this business. I want
every women to be able to get that special something.
"I would love to help you
decorate your home with unique window treatments,
bedding, and accessories that truly reflect you...
to help you make your house into a beautiful home that you love. Please
feel free to ask about any ideas, desires, or difficulties that you may
be having. I'd love to help, and you are under no obligation to order
anything... just ask!"
- Katie
