January/March Display
Wreaths by Linda Aldrich
Hello, my name is Linda Aldrich. I was chosen as this months Artist of the month to display my wreaths.
I have never considered myself an artist, but, I guess I am kind of!
I am a native South Dakota girl, born and raised here. I was married and raised my 3 children in Hill City. I graduated from Nursing school in 1986 and worked in the nursing profession for 31 years. I retired 3 years ago, and found myself with a lot of time on my hands. My best friend of 50 years makes wreaths and had encouraged me for many years to do it...so, this September I began to make wreaths. At first giving them as gifts. That quickly changed into making and selling them. I have progressed a lot in the quality of my work. I learn something new every day. I love to try new things and the feeling of accomplishment I get from doing something well. I hope my creations bring joy to people and more than anything I want to bless people by my work. When I’m doing a special order, I pray for whomever the wreath is going to. I am a Christian, and my faith guides my life. I will have business cards available for anyone requesting one. Contact me if I can be of service to you! I do best if I have a picture to go by, as often my vision is quite different from what a specific person may have in mind. Thank you for taking the time to look at some of my creations! There are MANY more where these came from!! My husband and I are residents here in Piedmont, and truly love the rural life! We consider this God’s country!
