I started Blocks From The Heart in 2012. I lost some pretty amazing people in 2011 and it changed my life. I wanted gifts to give to my family so we could cherish our moments and they would be comforted through our losses. My dad was one person I lost. He was a woodworker by hobby. My brother latched on to that talent and I have always had a love for art. I have always exercised my creative side! I have been known to be Mary Poppins, Martha Stewart, and Picasso but I prefer Katie Patton... Ha! I took the old fashion wood talent, combined it with my art talent and incorporated new technology. I work diligently to create the perfect finish so I am certain every creation will last for generations to come. When I create and design a gift for you, I keep in mind that you will hand this down. Each art piece becomes a time capsule. You can capture moments from your wedding, babies, grand babies, graduations, pets, death and everything in between. I have learned to embrace those ugly photos from 10 years ago and capture my life in progress! Spending an extra moment to send some photos has more rewards than you can imagine. With your help and my talent, we can create the perfect centerpiece, gift, or memory.
My husband builds most of my creations. I do all the sanding, staining and sealing before you put your order in so each piece is ready for your design work. A lot of hours go into each and every piece. I will never compromise the quality of my work. My brother builds all my tables, big furniture and custom made requests. My brother will give me unfinished pieces so I can finish them. I am not sure if I am a control freak or if I just need to make sure it has my heart etched into each piece. Please know through each of us, our hearts are humbled and you will receive a piece of our love in your art piece!
It is an honor to know that you will trust me to create a memory from your life. I love to have freedom and add my flair. Thank you for trusting me, following me and supporting what I do! I am living my dream. I love every story, every photo and getting to know you. We will become friends after text messages, emails and or phone calls. I will send you pictures after I design your art piece by text or email. After you proof read it, I will go through a 3 day coating process. I will send you final pictures before I mail it to you. I want you to love it before I mail it. I mail everything tracked and insured. I will bug you one final time to make sure it arrived safe and sound. At that point, you can ditch me or we can become life long friends!
