My love for arts & crafts started when I was a young girl at Camp Bonnie Brae in East Otis, Massachusetts. I loved being a girl scout always creating, going on nature walks, canoeing, hiking to pick berries and singing camp songs. My mother, the late Sylvia Foster Kirby, was a Girl Scout leader in Springfield, Massachusetts. I loved selling Girl Scout cookies. Thin Mints rule!

In addition, my mother was always sewing a dress, curtains or something. I loved going to the fabric store with my mom and twin sister Pamela. I would just lose myself in those big thick pattern books. Little did I know the seeds of my passion to create were being planted.

Years later, while working in broadcast news as a TV Reporter/Anchor I would spend my free time doing arts and crafts. I loved to make floral arrangements and wreaths to decorate my Victorian home.  I sister Jennifer encouraged me to participate in craft shows.  I did and soon entered into juried craft shows.

Recently I graduated with a Master's of Science in Nonprofit Management and Philanthropy. My goal is to someday turn Kathryn Kirby Signature Wreaths and Floral Arrangements into a business with a social mission. The mission would help raise funds to support youth programs and expose youth to classical music via the Springfield Symphony Orchestra.  I'm a member of the Springfield Symphony Chorus and music has always been near to my heart.

Let Kathryn Kirby Signature Wreaths and Floral Arrangements captivate your living space, office, outdoors or give as a gift.

Thank you and have nice day!

Kathryn
