Spreading Holiday Cheer Year-Round: Heather Donohue Shares on Finding Inspiration, Custom Crafting and All Things Vintage Christmas

Margo is joined by craft maker, Heather Donohue. Heather has been crafting since childhood and is known for her vintage-inspired Christmas stockings and tree skirts from felt and sequins as well as other creative commissions. She creates original content and craft projects for companies including Handmade Charlotte and Benzie Design. Her work has been featured in magazines, on stage, and online and although she considers herself an introvert, she loves leading in-person craft workshops. Her craft lab is in Minneapolis, where she lives with her husband, their twins, and cavalier king charles spaniel.

Margo and Heather discuss:

• Her creative path and how she runs and manages a business built on Christmas products
• How she went about monetizing her creations and a go-getter personality
• What success looks and feels like and how she’d like her business to evolve
• Advice and tips for others wanting to put themselves out there
• Working through introvertedness to leading workshops
• Creative burnout
• And more!
