Instructor: Denise Millard

I am a life long lover of all forms of arts and crafts, I have dabbled in a few and mastered several. Crocheting and knitting bring me comfort when I listen to music, podcasts or an audible book. Sewing has been my greatest accomplishment in that I have made everything from professional business suits to bathing suits to chair/cushion slip covers. I briefly had an Esty shop where I sold items made from recycled blue jeans. Recently I retired from a full-time budget/accounting role in academia and turned my side hustle as a professional home organizer into my semi-retirement job. Helping people declutter and organize their homes provides me great satisfaction so I don’t look at it as a job. Organizing energizes me and the energy flowing through my soul is showing its results in my art projects….as many and diverse as they are.
