I'm Claire - by day I'm a marketing professional in Corporate America. By nights and weekends I'm a wanna-be artist creating fun designs for coffee mugs, art prints, and more over at Bumble and Bustle. I love my day job, but the need to flex my creative muscle led me to start Bumble and Bustle in early 2017 and it's been quite the ride already. Things I love: champagne cocktails, long walks along Lake Michigan, traveling - both for work and for fun, afternoon tea, my two cats, and so much more!





When did you first start creating?

Pretty much the day I was born. My mom had this amazing craft closet when I was growing up. Most of the modern craft rooms would put it to shame, but back then, it was my heaven. We were always looking for new projects - homemade Valentines, friendship bracelets - mom even taught me to sew! I'm definitely a jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none kind of crafter, but I appreciate the ability to bounce around and try new projects.
