Residing in Springfield, Illinois, Gina (aka One Crafty Chick) is a soap, candle and paper craft artisan, and has been known to dabble in other arts and crafts mediums as her muse dictates She also loves the craft of writing, both non-fiction and fiction, and is thrilled with the opportunity to combine her two passions together, here.
When she isn’t working at her ‘real’ job, Gina spends a lot of her free time traversing Central Illinois attending and participating in various local arts and craft fairs, festivals, and farmers markets; discovering innovative ideas, forging new friendships, and simply enjoying life.

Rest in peace, Biscuit. The love of my life and my four-legged “dogger”. You’ll be sorely missed.
