I'm Sara.

Thanks for stopping by. If you hang out a while you will find bits of my life, a lot about fiber arts, a plant or two, and most likely a bad joke. I'm glad you're here!

Can I just lay on the floor and have one of you pour this directly into my mouth? Y’all, I am exhausted. But in the best of ways. After almost 36 hours of events I’m home with my girls, reflecting on the last few days, and listening to the soothing clicks of Minecraft. I’m consistently in awe of this life. It’s crazy to think that just a few years ago I was so lost and alone. So broken, angry, and confused. But it wasn’t the end of my story and I’m so freaking thankful for that. And I’m thankful for YOU. That you take time out of your day to drop in here so we can hang out. Anyway, ima go feed my kids now because the Minecrafting is starting to get ugly out there. Love you guuuuuuuys. #thankfulforyou #andcoffee • • • • • #tilinsiders #theinstagramlab #madecoffee #coffeeme #momentsilivefor #flashesofdelight #creativehappylife #risingtidesociety #galgetaway #happy #lifeafterdivorce #rosetattoo #harrypottertattoos #becomingwild
Just hanging out and being a super serious business woman at the @galgetaway conference! 😂 But for real, y’all- this kind of stuff gives me so much life. To all of you dreamers out there, all the gals I met today who are just starting out, and those of you in insta land- you got this! You aren’t alone. There’s a whole gang of us waiting out here for you. Space is NOT limited. Everyone is welcome. Encouraging these young ladies to find their passion is so encouraging for me. @kahleanicolee killed it. Feeling on cloud 9 right now. Can we do this every day? #galgetawayconference #seriousbusinesswoman • • • • #findyourfiber #theeverygirl #theinstagramlab #tilinsiders #creativeentrepreneurs #calledtobecreative #girlboss #galgetaway #targetdoesitagain #havefun #orlandoiswonderful
Scenes from a project I’ve been helping with that I’m so freaking excited about. If you’re coming to my workshop tomorrow (ps- only 2 tickets left) then you’ll get a sneak peak. And I know I’ve been saying this forever BUT!!! fellow fiber artists get ready. We’re going full granny up in this b. 📷: @annastamatic #fiberartistsunite #comingsoon
We are summering HARD over here. Either in full swim, slip and slide, scooting, crazy mode or laying around in pj’s mode. For me summer always means early morning and late night work hours. And while these summer months might not hold my peak work performance they are so good for my mama heart. Success is measured a little differently in summer and I am 100% ok with that. #momentslikethese #summervibes
This little beauty is hanging in the bedroom of my daughter’s bestie. Not gonna lie- it gives me warm fuzzies to know it’s hanging there when they are making memories together. #everydayimacrame
“It must be so nice to get a break from your kids when they go to their dad’s.” I get this all the time. Especially now that school is out. And I have no idea how to response. On one hand, yes it is nice to have some time to focus on work, home, and self while knowing my kids are in a safe and loving environment. And I get to do a lot of really cool thing without having to worry about childcare because I know they will be with their dad. But on the other hand it never stops hurting. It’s been almost 3 years and every time they leave I walk back into a suddenly quiet house and it feels like someone’s knocked the wind out of me. Tomorrow is my littlest 6th birthday and I get to pick her up and take her to breakfast then drop her back off at her dad’s. They have a fun day planned and it just so happens she’s at his house this year on her birthday. But these are the things that hurt so deeply despite the logic of it and that burn in my heart when people say “it must be nice...” I’m not saying it’s good or bad to say- just sharing part of the emotional avalanche that comes with a simple phrase. Remember that the gram isn’t real life, fam. Everybody has struggles. This is one of mine. If it’s one of yours too know you’re not alone. 🖤 #itsoktonotbeok #reallifestagram

Confession 1: I play with my hair when I’m nervous. *hair flip* This was me experiencing FEELINGS at the @flowcreative.co event last weekend. Confession 2: I still struggle calling myself an “artist”. Even after 2 years of #findyourfiber , 3 years of #dillydallydolls , and almost 15 years of combined experience- I stood in a room of artists, influencers, and creatives of all types and felt under qualified. If it ever gets easier let me know (or I’ll let you know) but no matter how deserving I may or may not feel I want to always feel as grateful as I do now. Confession 3: I’m still not sure if this is a hair flip emoji or not but I use it as one anyway. 💁🏼‍♀️ 📷: @kahleanicolee #flowcreative #hairflip #feelingnervousbutdoingitanyway
Just feeling extra love for this city today. I moved back to Orlando in 2008 and wasn’t thrilled about it. Now I JUST realized that was 10 years ago and honestly could not be more thankful for this city beautiful. Plenty of cities have great food, art, etc. but it’s the people who make a place great. Grow where you’re planted, my friends. Chances are there is a community waiting for you out there- go find them! #sundayvibes #thisisorlando #acolorstory
