After picking up the brush again, there was no way Alexis was going to put it down for another seven years. In October 2023, she pushed past the nerves and took a leap of faith. Flairendipity Creations was born! With a mission to create designs that inspire, connect, and captivate, Alexis aims to use her talents to make a positive impact and spread a little joy in the world.
While Flairendipity may pop up at a few area craft shows, Alexis prefers the made-to-order model. She most enjoys connecting with her customers to create something one-of-a-kind and special to them. This personal touch is never more apparent than with her horsehair jewelry. Having grown up around horses, Alexis understands how much they mean to their people. Between handwashing, air drying, brushing, and organizing the hair before making the pieces, these projects are a labor of love.
“I feel extremely blessed that people trust me to care for, sometimes the last remaining piece they have of their horse,” explained Alexis. “To return it in the form of something beautiful to serve as a lasting memory of their beloved animal is a gift.
Whether it’s painting or drawing, home décor or jewelry, Alexis loves channeling her creativity into pieces tailored to the specific needs of her customers. And she ties her work back to where it all began, donating 20% of all sales back to churches and other organizations with similar missions.
“I believe that art has the power to make a difference in the world. And I aim to use my talents to inspire more positivity,” Alexis shared with a smile.
