Taming Roses

Growing Girls and Roses...while trying to prune life's thorns and keep all the roses. Somewhere in the midst of all that...to create beauty in my life through Art: Tatting, Crochet, Crafting, Sewing, Baking, and Gardening.

About Me

Julie Romero: My favorite quote is an anonymous one about a life with love having some thorns but life without love having no roses. I believe this to be entirely true. I am a mom who keeps busy helping her two beautiful daughters grow and become whatever God intends for them to be someday. I love Tatting, Crochet, Crafting, Sewing, Baking, and Gardening...particularly growing roses (100 bushes and counting ~ not too many is that...), and generally creating anything that makes life more beautiful and helps to tame those thorns while helping the roses I am blessed with to grow!
