I can tell you it’s a beautiful art form which I absolutely love. I make paper flower installations for event venues, storefront displays, photoshoots, home décor etc. I am also a bit of a muse and have discovered the joys of writing short verses and poems based around my own experiences, the experiences of others and nature.

I recently co-authored a book with a group of women (never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever be part of putting a book out into the world but it’s out there and I am so proud of it).

I’m also an amateur cross fitter. I love the workouts and have discovered a lot about myself doing CrossFit.

I hang out mostly on Instagram but you can also find me on Facebook and on my crafting blog. All handles are beulahpapercreations.
