Last week, a local deputy passed away unexpectedly at only 45 years old, leaving behind his wife…read moreand teenage twins. His daughter had one simple, heartfelt request: to fill the room with beautiful, abundant flowers to honor her dad. I reached out to Sponseller's on Friday, June 13, explaining a heartbreaking situation and the urgency--we had just three days until the memorial service on Monday. I informed Rick that my nonprofit, Making Everything Good, would be fundraising to help make the daughter's wish come true. Without hesitation, Rick said he was up for the mission. I initially approved $1,000 in flowers, but as the fundraiser quickly grew over the weekend, we stayed in close contact and ultimately increased the order to $2,500 worth of floral arrangements. Not once did Rick or his team hesitate. They poured heart and talent into creating stunning floral masterpieces, all delivered to the church ahead of the service. Their compassion, flexibility, and craftsmanship helped turn a grieving daughter's wish into a beautiful reality.

The bride wanted a natural look that incorporated a blue cornflower ribbon motif that was her theme. The arrangements exceeded our expectations! Stephanie was a joy to work with as we planned for the event.

I would highly recommend Stephanie at Sponsellers for anyone looking for arrangements for their next special day. Thank you, Stephanie!!

From paintings, to woodworking, to knitting and crocheting, to metal and glass work, to handmade jewelry, to macrame to housewares, to handmade soaps and candles ... this fascinating store will have you mesmerized. There's even a book nook offering writings from local authors. Due to these uncertain times, with so many of us hunkered in at home more these days, it was refreshing to see the creative juices of these artists flowing. Donning our masks, (and by the way, they had some cute, unusual handmade masks for sale) we meandered through this inspiring place and purchased many cool items! If you get a little stir crazy and get the chance to get a change of scenery, be sure to pop into this arts and crafts bazaar!
