Playful Purpose Studio Welcome to Ann Loree Boutique! Handmade crafts, designs, photography, vintage, patterns & more. About Me:
Hello and Thank You for taking time to read my profile.

I love to do crafts, take pictures and create things. My favorite thing to do is crochet. My great grandmother taught me to crochet (she was a master) when I was about 4 or 5 years old, I have been crocheting off and on ever since. Happy Creating!! My husband and I are currently living in Fort Collins, Colorado. We have lived here since 2010, I have spent the last few years building my Specialty M

assage practice, doing private coaching & teaching as a certified Art of Feminine Presence Teacher and gorwing our Vitality, Healing & Movement Center. I love crafting, creating and taking pictures on my travels. It is a great way to relieve stress. It is a very relaxing and therapeutic thing to do. I do it part time in the evenings and on the weekends. So that's just a little about me. I think it's always neat to learn a little about the crafter/artist behind the items. If you would like to drop me a note, tell me a little about where you are at and what you are up to. I would like to get to know all of you a little bit better. Hope to hear from you soon. Well gotta get back to work creating new things. Thanks for visiting with me for a while. See you again soon. =)

I’m spending this week in my workshop making cozy, meaningful holiday keepsakes, and these custom laser cut and engraved wood ornaments are officially open for orders.

Each ornament is handmade, personalized, and sealed, making it a sweet, lasting gift for families, pet lovers, and anyone who appreciates something thoughtful and one of a kind on their tree.

I’ll be working on ornaments from today, December 17, through December 22. Orders placed by December 18 will be ready for local pickup by December 23, just in time for Christmas.

Ornament options include:
• Snowman ornaments in double layer birch wood with hand painted trees and snowflakes
• Dog Bone and Round Paw Prints dog ornaments in double layer birch and walnut
• Paw Print ornament in birch wood

Prices:
• Double layer ornaments are $22 each
• Paw print ornaments are $18 each

All ornaments are personalized, and I’m happy to answer questions or help you choose the best option.

Local pickup only in South Fort Collins near Trilby and Lemay.

To order, comment or send me a DM and let me know what you’re thinking. I’ll reply with PayPal or Venmo payment options and we’ll take it from there.

These make such heartfelt gifts, and I’d love to make one for you or someone you love this season.

New customized laser engraved wood Dog Ornaments in the works... Check it out!

Come say hi to me and Monique Eckes of Silver Paw Studio tomorrow at the Winter Pet Market at Summit Dog Training.
We'll have specials on Pet photography sessions, some cute Holiday Pet themed gift items, some everyday Pet themed gift items and maybe even some non-pet themed items so you can knock some extra shopping off your list 😉

And you can place your orders for one of these customized Dog Ornaments... I'm making a batch of them next week so you'll get it in plenty of time for Christmas!
