About Me

Tara Hendrickson

I am a full-time tax professional, a full time pet mom, and I take care of a house full of grown men (my dad, my brother, and my husband). So you can imagine that I need a creative outlet to de-stress, detox, and de-clutter my mind. I originally started with CTMH in 2015. I recently took some time off to care for my family, but now I'm BACK! It really is amazing how you can miss something so much. I love being a part of the Close To My Heart family and I always knew I would come back. I don't think I'll ever stop wanting to do this. I love the creative flexibility that these products give me because I am by no means an artist; but these projects help me feel like one. Let me show you!
