A new venture.

Over the Moon Goods is the creative brainchild of me, a 40-something year old woman who found herself at a crossroads.  Years spent professionally behind a desk shoving paper from one stack to the next, I yearned to spend more time indulging my creative side.  The real estate market in a slump, I knew that my previous artistic outlet, redecorating, remodeling and/or building various real estate holdings, was not an option.  I needed something on a smaller (and less risky) scale.

So I gave up my day job pushing papers and I began to dream.  What inspired me?  If free time is more readily available, how did I want to spend it?

As a child I was mesmerized by the textile wares that my Grandma Beuna would create.  At the age of 10 she taught me how to use the sewing machine and I was hooked.  She was a genius at crafting something out of a few swatches of yard goods.  When she died, I inherited the trunks and boxes that had once been her sewing room.  Sadly, circumstances and daily life commitments had robbed me of the energy and time to nurture my inner seamstress.   Now that I was starting this new phase of my life, I unearthed those boxes and trunks, and began to sort thru the treasure trove of vintage buttons, fabrics, and notions.  I spent days sorting and organizing her mass accumulation, and in those boxes I found inspiration for Over the Moon Goods.

My goal is to create unique, one of a kind items for you and for your home.  I promise to create products that feature fresh designs, colors and patterns created into stylish and appealing items.  I will feature those items on this blog, as well as on our website:  www.overthemoongoods.com   I'm new at all of this, so I hope you keep checking back to see where my artistic path takes me.  It is all a work in progress, but I am enjoying it immensely.  Thank you for sharing this journey with me.
