She is here for a teaching cruise out of Galveston. I drove 4.5 hrs one way to a tiny craft store in Spring, TX called Little Craft Place. It’s so cute! Teeny tiny fun things everywhere you look. Washi literally on every surface. It was fantastic to finally meet Vicki after not getting to go to She Loves Color in 2020. She’s just as delightful in person as she is on her Lives. *click to enlarge Planning to meet up with her again tomorrow.

That is so cool!!! I don't know where she finds the emotional reserves but she honestly seems to thrive on social contact and making friends. I love people and friends, but I'm an introvert and after an event, or after meeting "x" number of new people, I need a break in my own space!

I like meeting new people (sometimes), but this lady thrives on it. She can talk for days! LOL

Sounds like she exceeded your expectations. Love that. Her energy does not seem forced. She does seem like a nice person.

I've taken a couple classes with Vicki and she is very genuine, warm and outgoing. How fun for you to meet her.

How cool, that's awesome.
I took a class from her about a decade ago - maybe more - and she was just great. She's a good teacher and was genuinely warm and engaging. It was at the height of 2 Peas popularity and so everyone in the class just ended up asking her all about 2 Peas and the garden girls and the behind the scenes gossip - we just sat around for the last half hour of class and chatted. She was happy to spill the tea but was always nice and positive. if I remembered any of the gossip I'd tell you all, but I can't! I just remembered loving every minute of it lol.

My husband and I met up with her again for dinner on Thursday, and we reminisced about Two Peas and the CHA trade shows. It's very possible that I may have run into her there years ago! There was a lot of stories she knew about the "secret CHA after dark" life that I missed out on because my boss at the time wouldn't let us hang out with our competition. It was interesting to hear about, that's for sure! She is so fun, interesting, bubbly, enthusiastic, and super chatty. I just loved getting to know her outside of my laptop, especially since I missed my opportunity back in 2020 when She Loves Color was moved to virtual due to the pandemic, so I didn't get to go see her in person!

I love how approachable and accommodating she is.I took a class from Vicki in the early or mid 2000s. She was awesome. I was seriously shy unfortunately.
