I love this quote, “Without passion, you cannot succeed”. I really believe that. I took
something I was truly passionate about, which is “Being Creative” and made it into my career
and life. I had a discussion recently with a friend and we were talking about being a happy
person. I definitely consider myself a happy person and I think a lot of it has to do with the
fact that I am living my passion. I love what I do and was able to create the life I wanted.
I think that everyone has issues and struggles through life… that’s just natural, so you need
to find ways to enjoy life. Everyone needs to have a hobby. I always believed this, because
sometimes you need to get away from it all, and do things that make you happy. Life is too
short not to enjoy it. Make your life a happy life that’s full of passion!
About Us
I Love To Create.....
I have been creating my whole life and absolutely love what I do. I love shapes and textures, which is
what draws me to molds. A lot of my inspiration comes from nature, color and a passion for creating
things with my own hands. Many people in my life have been a huge influence in my creative life. My
grandma was always busy making others happy with her quilts and hand Crocheted doily Christmas
ornaments. I also have an aunt who enjoys oil painting and decorating her home that displays her unique
creative style. And of course my Mother, who encouraged me by supplying me with all kinds of craft
supplies as a child and taking me to the small craft shop in our tiny home-town in Southwest Minnesota.
As I got older, I immersed myself in as many arts and crafts mediums as I could. As a young child I was
always amazing people with my creations using Etch a sketch, Play-doh, Lite-Bright, Shrinky Dinks and
Spirogragh. I gave many of my creations away as gifts and I enjoyed seeing the smiles it brought to my
friends and family. As a child, my small tiny fingers were perfect for quilling, which led to making church
bulletin paper beads! I also did some weaving, string art and all those types of crafts that were popular
back in the day. Eventually I started working in craft stores demonstrating all types of wearable arts,
window display and enjoyed instructing craft classes. I couldn’t believe they were paying me to have so
much fun! There haven’t been many mediums that I haven’t tried over
the years, but polymer clay has definitely been my medium of choice. I
love creating with mixed media and adding a variety of mediums to my
polymer clay artwork.
We opened Mad About Molds in 2004 and gradually increased our mold
line ever since. We have a huge assortment of molds in many
categories, so there’s something for everyone. Molds are so fun, with an
incredible amount of projects that can be created. We offer many one-
of-a-kind molds that can’t be found anywhere else! This is unique to
many other companies, whose molds are manufactured.
Thanks for checking out Mad about Molds!
Best wishes,
