Garrison, Rachel

Rachel Garrison is a fourth generation folk artist. She has been creating for as long as she can remember. Growing up her days were spent watching her mother craft the most amazing farmhouse style folk pieces using old feed sacks and antique calico prints. Her mother's works have been featured in magazines and have even made their way into large chain stores. Rachel's goal is to follow in her mother's footsteps and build a folky business of her own.

One of the most exciting times of the year for Rachel is Halloween! Her works are inspired by Halloween decor from the 1940s-60s. The pieces made during that time are full of character and bring back  fond memories of walking hand-in-hand and door-to-door greeting neighbors with a sweet “trick or treat” on a crisp autumn night.

Rachel loves adding joy and whimsy into all of her handmade Halloween folk art / primitive pieces. Using high quality materials, vintage fabrics and found objects is a must to bring her projects to life. She creates the look and feel of an item that has been passed down through generations.
