About Me

Hey There!

Who I Am

Hi, I’m Chelsey! I’m a mom of three lively boys and an Army wife, living a life full of creativity, family adventures, and the unique rhythms of military life. I’m also a proud dog mom to two German Shepherds and a German Shorthair Pointer who keep our household extra lively! Creating has always been a huge part of who I am, and I’ve found joy in turning everyday moments into opportunities for creativity. From embroidery to DIY projects, I love exploring new ways to make things with my hands and sharing that journey with others.

Why I Got Started

My passion for embroidery began as a hobby during the quiet moments of mom life, but quickly grew into something more. It started with a simple desire to make personalized gifts for family and friends—special pieces that told a story. From there, I discovered the joy of teaching and inspiring others to try something new, even if they had never picked up a needle and thread before. Daisies & Duke was born out of that passion, as a way to share my love for embroidery, offer DIY kits, and show others just how easy and rewarding it can be to create something with your own hands.

What I Hope to Build

I’m on a mission to build a welcoming and inspiring community where creativity can flourish. I hope to be a resource for beginners and experienced creators alike, offering guidance, tutorials, and encouragement every step of the way. My goal is to create a space that’s not just about products, but about sharing experiences, ideas, and the satisfaction of making something truly your own. Through my newsletter, website, and social platforms, I’m excited to connect with other like-minded creators who are eager to explore the world of embroidery and DIY. Together, we’ll build a community that celebrates creativity, family, and the beauty of handmade items.
