OUR STORY

       from a dream to reality...       

When I was a child I would spend countless hours in the bathroom looking through the cabinets to see what I could mix together.  Sometimes it was toothpaste and baby powder.  Sometimes it was shampoo (Body on Tap) and either my dad's Old Spice or my brother's Hai Karate.  I'd use paper cups to mix my concoctions then apply them to my baby dolls.  Oh, to be a kid again!

​

I remember the first candle I made when I was seven years old.  It was a frog.  Then I started making snow candles and tapered candles.  Somewhere along the way, I stopped doing the things I enjoyed the most.  But, that all changed several years ago.  I had worked several corporate jobs and was either laid off because the company moved or closed.  Since I had some free time, I decided to start making soap, lotions and candles again.  Soon the extra bedroom became my supply room then shelves were added to hold the finished product.

​

Why did I pick the name Red Fern Gifts and Essentials?  The red fern has many legends and meanings.  I look at it as a love for something.  "The red fern is often used to represent a new beginning, a fresh start, or a new chapter in someone’s life. The growth of the red fern symbolizes the hope of a better future, the hope of a brighter tomorrow."
