About

I am a local designer who loves trinkets and treasures, bling and baubles, the vintage and victorian, and anything with pearls and lace. I am inspired by black and white photos, old greeting cards, fashion, Paris/London, Frida Kahlo, Steinlen, and my family. I have inherited the gift of creativity from the wonderful women in my life, my mother whose vision is never ending, my grandmother whose soft and gentle touch puts just the right finish on a project, my sister whose words are never ending, my daughter and nieces with their pure outlook on life. Thank you for the gifts and visions that you share and inspire me to be the best designer that I can be. Thats me(Therese)on the left, the designer and owner of Fanciful Notations. I love to share my ideas with you. I work hard to create beautiful prints and creations that will leave an impression on the mind of those who are on the receiving end. Enjoy and remember to dance as if no one is watching.
