LAURA MARCO
Laura has always loved the warm glow of candle light and the ambiance it creates. She started making candles in 2016, when she decided that she wanted to give all of her wedding guests a candle to take home with them as a favor. She decided it would be much more cost effective to make them herself; so that is how LaMarco Candle Co. started. Today, she has started her own candle company; along with having two toddlers and working part time as an Executive Assistant. She has been operating for about a year and is having the best time creating unique, chic, and delightfully scented candles. She is here to craft your next aromatic addiction, that costs less than dinner but lasts for days.

Fritzie is the co-founder of Greenology Organic Living, an Eco Boutique and Plant Shop in the picturesque Peddler’s Village, and an Organic Farm in Western Texas. A lifelong plant enthusiast, she has devoted years in learning about different plant species, how to grow them organically, and in artistic ways to sustainably incorporate them in a home setting. For the last 8 years, she has been regularly hosting Planting Parties and Workshops for social events like birthdays, ladies’ night out, and date nights. She also hosts corporate team building events virtually and at area hotels and country clubs. She believes that a big part of living sustainably and holistically is surrounding oneself with living natural elements. You will find her most days with hands in dirt and always offering helpful advice to plant novices, so they too can enjoy the wonderful feeling growing plants can give you.
Taylor Bussinger
I’m Taylor! I’m a 31 year old momma to 3 children. I’m a personal trainer and absolutely love what I do. When I’m not busy with the kiddos or work, I like to bake anything and everything sourdough. My love for sourdough baking started once I realized, “hey, I can actually do this!” It took a few tries for sure, but once I baked my first successful loaf of plain bread, the rest was history. Now you can find me baking cookies, inclusion loaves, scones, pizza dough & all kinds of goodies!

Introduce yourself:
“Workshops like last night weren’t just about the wreath; it was about coming together, supporting each other, and creating something beautiful in the process. This simple act of making something with their hands had rekindled a sense of connection not only to each other but also to the natural world around them.
Fritzie E. from ‘Greenology organic living’
Rekindling bonds with pals and embracing the beauty of nature in a picturesque barn, Art in the Barn revived with heartfelt dedication over three decades. Just last evening, these radiant women created a Kokedama Living Wreath, necessitating collective efforts to tackle a multifaceted task. And oh, they nailed it exceptionally well!
The laughter and chatter that filled the barn were a testament to the deep connections forged over years of shared experiences. Each woman brought her unique touch to the project, weaving stories and memories into the living wreath along with the moss and soil. As the evening progressed, the barn seemed to glow with a warm, inviting light, reflecting the joy and camaraderie of the friends within.
