~~ About ~~
Eclettico in Italian means eclectic,
which pretty much describes me, honours my paternal Grandfather and our Italian heritage.
I can thank my Parents and Grandmothers for my creativity as I spent quite a bit of
time with them when my parents were working.
I grew up directly involved with crocheting, quilting, sewing, making barbie clothes and furniture, macramé, pottery, leather crafting, whittling, making models ----how on earth could I give up any of these???
Fast forward to marriage, 3 fantastic children, loss of grandparents, divorce, relocation,
and a second marriage to a wonderful supportive husband. I'm very blessed to have
an amazing son, and 2 wonderful daughters. Not to mention my 7 amazing grandchildren
whom I love dearly and am so unbelievably proud of.
After many different jobs, my most recent being in Assisted Seniors Living, I am finally ready to come
full circle to continue doing what I love with my husband and children beside me, while continuing to provide, care, comfort and passion to all walks of life!
Thank you for coming along for the ride.
