At Create Whimsy, we’re builders, makers, crafters, and creators – just like you. We share the stories of makers, and what they make, inspiring creativity in our everyday lives.
Want inspiration and guidance on a project? We’ve developed some how-to articles and videos to help guide you. In our articles, we try to show you the ‘why’ and give you options to make it your own.
Your creations are about the way you build it, and the insights you learn in the process. It’s the inspiration you have. It’s your story.
I hope that reading the stories about other makers and seeing the projects that other creatives make, inspires you in your everyday life, giving you the confidence to put your work out there!
Let me introduce myself. I’m Lynn Woll, founder of Create Whimsy.
As a young girl, our mother made all of our clothes, decorations, and home decor projects. There was always a creative project in the works. We lived overseas and the only way to get new clothes was to sew them! She encouraged our creativity and trying new things.
I love to play – with fabric, beads, wire, paints and more. Trying new techniques and mediums always inspires me, and I am always up for a good home dec project, or quick and easy craft project.
I get inspiration across mediums — I put beads (lots of beads) on my quilts, I paint on my clothes and look at an old piece of furniture and think I can recover and repurpose it. I love hearing the stories on why people do what they do, and wanted to bring creators and makers together to make it easy to share our stories.
Create Whimsy blends my experience as a brand and digital marketer with my passion for making. With over 20 years experience in digital marketing and web development, it was just natural to start a website all about makers and creating!
Keep your hands busy, your mind open, and put your heart into everything.
