About The Velvet Acorn

Hello my name is HeidiMay, I have a true love for nature and the outdoors. One of my favorite things is to sit with a cup of coffee in the morning and stare out at the mountains and trees. Whether they are filled with snow, falling leaves, or billowed out with spring foliage. I can’t think of anywhere else I would rather be in that moment.

I am inspired everyday by my children, and all the simple things in life. When my first daughter was born, I combined my love for nature and everything handmade with my love for knitting and crocheting. I was always looking for items that where feminine, practical with a natural earthy flare. This is where it started…..The Velvet Acorn.

I have three wonderful children. Time goes by so fast and I am very thankful, I cherish every moment we share together and seeing the world through their eyes. I really enjoy cooking, gardening and just curling up in front of the fire with a great book or my basket full of yarn. I can only hope to share with you my love for nature and all the simple things in life one design at a time.
