“We’ve got a creative family and always been tinkers,” Charles said. “We got the creative gene from our mom.”
Howell specializes in decoupage; an art decoration that protects cut-outs and pictures. Decoupage tiles with jumbled puzzled pieces, making out a home and horses, sat on a shelf.
Charles is the creative of the two while Howell complements with American Picking collectibles and antiques from Ebay, yard and state sales.
