i will be opening a new website on september 15th, kenner road, it is very dear to me and one i've been obsessing over since i decided to jump in with both feet right before i left for cha chicago. a dear friend of mine had suggested that i do this. that i take this leap and put my heart behind what i love and adore, all things vintage + scrapbooking/paper crafts. i sat and thought about it for a couple weeks and realized how much this craft, this industry and the amazing people i have met & become friends with makes me happy. so here i am, starting another online business and excited to begin.
i'll be selling vintage scrapbook and papercraft kits, more of my vintage inspired digital elements {like the images you see above and on the kenner road splash page} as well as vintage fabric, trims, ephemera and other vintage elements that i love to collect. basically, anything that you've seen me use in my work {and more} will be available. the kits will be available through guranteed subscriptions and also on a limited basis the day each kit goes live.
i have to say that choosing the name was easy for me, kenner road was the street that i lived on when i was little. it was where i spent days outside in the summer, running and laughing and getting brown in the hot central valley sun. i had a horse for a best friend, freedom to roam where i wanted and orchards to get lost in while picking apricots straight from the branches as a snack. it wasn't a fairytale childhood, and i had my struggles, but looking back now i can see the magic moments that existed, the moments that have shaped me into who i am today; strong, independent, loyal, focused, loving and more.
it's a dream i'm excited to work on, something that has been inspiring me on a daily basis. there is alot more i have planned than what i have shared here, including an amazing creative team that i am blessed to have join me next month, but all of that will be revealed in due time.
if you are interested in learning more about kenner road, you can send an email to subscriptions [at!] kenner road [dot!] com or use the direct link on the website and i'll add you to the newsletter list so you will be the first to know when subscriptions are available for preorder and more.
happy monday!!!
