Hi Everyone!
We are so glad you decided to stop by our handmade accessories shop. White Poppy Designs was started by myself Mary Beth and my mom Barb. Growing up my mom was always a creative genius! From making cakes to paintings to figuring out the perfect home decor and even planing my wedding, the creativity definitely runs in our genes. After countless friends and family were always interested in our products, we started to open our own shop.
Mary Beth
A little about me! I am a wife and mother to the perfect little family. I am a Scientist by day and Entrepreneur by night.
I spent most of my life growing up in a beautiful small little town on the Oregon coast. Most of my free time growing up was spent swimming competitively. After High School I went to Campbell University where I continued my swimming career and received a degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences. While at Campbell I also worked part-time teaching swim lessons. It was teaching swimming where I met my husband and partner in life Matt.
Today I have a family of 6, yes I count our two dogs and cat as part of our awesome family. I look forward to sharing with you all our creations.
Barb
She is a mother, wife, and grandma. My mom is the prefect role model for any girl, young lady, or woman. She has shown and taught me so much in life. Not once has there been a task or challenge in life that she did not handle with grace and skill. She has taught me to not be afraid of anything and always chase after your dreams.
My mom is the biggest advocate for those that most need help. During her working career she helped rid a neighborhood of drug activity through prayer and an attitude of perseverance. She has worked with the State Police as an Evidence Tech, coached and mentored young gymnasts, worked for the Youth of Christ ensuring children struggling would always have the help they need and now currently works for a dog and cat rescue. My mom was always able to connect with the right people to effectively take care of any situation all while still raising her two daughters.
As well as working two jobs most of her life my mom has also had her entrepreneurial ventures with her crafts. She has done holiday craft shows, designed and created beautiful cakes and still found time to decorate her own home. She looks forward to sharing all her talent and beautiful creations.
