Formerly Where Sisters Create
We are nature-loving sisters who grew up in the country near Weippe, Idaho...
As toddlers we watched grandma Venna sew our 'go to town' clothes, square dance clothes, doll clothes & coats. As we grew we joined 4-H and developed our skills in yearly classes. Now as adults we've grown to love a good challenge and that includes working with natural fibers and often no pattern. It's an intuitive process.
-Renee's interests: web developer(including this site), teacher, gardener, chicken owner, truck driver and especially, grandma.
Where we started: Danette: in 2006 my daughters and I were volunteering at a small thrift shop in Deary Idaho when we notice them throwing out trash bags of unsellable jeans. We asked to take some home where we took in the challenge of 'What can we do with these?'
We brought in my Sis, Renee and asked her the same thing. We came up with bags, purses, book covers, blankets, aprons, skirts, rice bags ,door stops, throws, and so much more!
We sold a few things at local markets.
Life happens with divorce, moving, career changes, etc,
In 2017 we created Wildly Wearable Coats and more by Where Sisters Create. All of us are still involved plus more have joined in. My daughters are very supportive with ideas, suggestions and as models. Sis & I design and craft each item from our home studios.
Most photo shoots end up being a party. Kayla Sanders is our amazing photographer. Our models are friends who are willing to brave the elements & often hike to a certain location. They are Stacie, Cat, Kathleen, Robbie, Jackie plus many more.
