History behind Bushel + Peck:
Left the "Office Job" when my little boy was born and starting a business was my way of keeping peace of mind. I'm not one to sit idle. Having an Art Degree, I decided to just start designing what I thought was fun and later began to put things down on paper. Voila, Bushel + Peck Paper was created!

History of Green Beansie Cards:
I have always been interested in design - ever since I can remember! I followed my design interest to college and graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a Bachelors in Interior Design. I worked in the retail design field for awhile then eventually put away my architectural scale to pursue other areas of study - and eventually to be a mom...the most important job yet! We have a 3 year old little girl and a baby girl on the way this August (2011).

As a stay at home mom I have spent the past few years working on various graphics projects for friends, the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America, and my church. And, following a recent move from Ohio (where I grew up) to Colorado, I suddenly had a lot of spare time on my hands as my daughter started preschool and I had fewer family and friend commitments. I decided it was a great time to open an Etsy store. I still love to view quality interior design and many of my creations are inspired by interior spaces...or my favorite magazine: Coastal Living.
