I'm Mary, and I'm the daughter of the mother/daughter team of the Purple Butterfly shop located in North Iowa. At our store, I hand draw and paint shirts and jackets, etc. When not at the easel, I love focusing on theatre, writing, and drinking way too much coffee!

My mom Deb has enjoyed all kinds of crafts for as long as she can remember. She is fascinated by the infinite designs she can create with polymer clay and takes great care in making every one-of-a-kind pen which will be available in this online boutique.

Did you notice the upper wings of our logo? "Mother" of this mother and daughter boutique is shown on the left working on one of her polymer clay covered pens. Outline of the "daughter" is on the upper right wing drawing a design on a t-shirt. Mary designed this logo with her Grandma Barb in mind. Grandma Barb's favorite color was purple, and ever since her passing in 2014, we have always associated seeing a butterfly with feeling her presence was near to us. A special logo for a special mother and daughter endeavor.

On Christmas Day when our family gathers to recap the year and talk about goals going forward, the idea of a collaboration was born. No matter how this story progresses, working together as a mom and daughter creative team is a dream come true, and we are having a blast sharing our wares and our story!
