Meet Karla
“I believe that personalized gifts show how much you appreciate a person! I create hand painted champagne bottles for special occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, home closings, etc”
Learn more about Karla below!
How did your business come to exist?
My daughter and I were looking for ideas for unique gifts for a few of her friends graduating from college. I painted champagne bottles for them and they loved them! I realized I had a business. That was just a couple of months ago!
What is your biggest challenge?
My biggest challenge right now is making myself focus on my web site, but I know I need to finish it so I have a storefront other than Instagram and Facebook. I need to carve out time and make it a priority, but I would rather paint. I would always rather paint!
How did you arrive where you are today?
I refer to myself as a recovering Executive Director for a reason! I arrived here, now, because I’m at a point in my life where I want to do something that not only makes other people happy, but it makes me happy too! Recently I heard someone say that “self care is not selfish—it’s compassionate”.
What is your favorite part of your job?
My favorite part of what I do is thinking about how much joy the person or persons on the other end will experience when they realize the bottle I created was personalized for them, and them only! I would love to be a fly on the wall and hear the excitement!
