lori. You name the craft and she's done it! From rug hooking and macrame to most notably tole and one stroke painting - this girl is an all around crafting pro! Lori has even studied directly under the watchful eye of painting industry leader Donna Dewberry! If there is a crafting trend, Lori is on it; and that is precisely why she's been crowned Clipper Street's very own and all original Glitter Queen! She shines! Name 3 things in your fridge on a regular basis... Milk, Cheese, and Orange Juice What's in the trunk of your car right now? Nothing (Isn’t that great?) What TV series do you record? Reality shows mostly. Describe your favorite shoes. I don’t have a fave. Like em all. Describe your purse. Keys, cell phone, Ph. #’s, pens, mints, gum oh and of course money.

Do you cook? What’s your specialty?

Never liked cooking and I always said that when my kids moved out my husband and I would eat out all the time, well we tried that and now we want home cooked meals, it’s such a shame cause I still do not want to cook, I guess I should have taken cooking lessons! My specialty is a meat, cheese and macaroni casserole.

What’s the strangest listing in the directory of your cell phone?

No listings

Name the musicians/groups you have been listening to lately.

Tina Turner, Celine Dion, the Bee Gees, Don Henley and my personal favorite the Eagles

Favorite book?

I love to read autobiography’s, the Royal Family especially Princess Diana.

What’s hanging on the walls of your workspace?

Well at this moment there is nothing on the walls. We are finishing our basement and my personnel workspace just needs to have the cabinets and the counter put in and I will be a happy camper at last.

The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is…

Hope that it is a sunny day and that I get accomplished at least half of what needs to be done that day.

What do you like on your pizza?

It would be easier to tell you the items I don’t like on Pizza. Let’s see, Anchovies and Olives. Now wasn’t that easier? I am trying to do my part in conserving valuable space taken up on the computer, every little bit helps, if we all did this every day then just think about all the room there would be after just one year people! I for one want to do my part in this global problem let’s start a movement to stop unnecessary words being typed for no reason. Who wants to be the leader? Oh yea Anchovies and olives you got that right.

When I’m stressed I want to…

I want to eat chocolate ( doesn’t everyone? ) I also like to have a nice hot decaf Latte, actually I could use one right now, be right back…

My favorite paper craft projects are…

These projects would be the cards that we receive from our Daughter and our Daughter-in-law for Mother’s day, Father’s day, birthday cards and our Christmas cards. These cards are truly made from the heart and I will cherish every single one forever.

Favorite junk food splurge...

This might be another one of those questions that would be easier to tell you the junk food I do not like but, if I were to choose only one to have on a desert island then it would be Lay’s Potato chips and dip. This makes sense because I would need that salt just to keep from being dehydrated right?

The first thing I do when I have a creative project is….

The very first thing for me is to go and buy every possible item I would need for it. If it doesn’t work, then I consider it like therapy, it always makes me happy to shop.

I collect…

Porcelain and vinyl dolls (thank goodness I have one granddaughter)

Favorite quote and why…

"What goes around comes around" The reason this is my favorite line is, it’s so true.

How many years of experience do you have as a professional crafter (teaching, creating for sale, selling, etc)?

25+ Isn’t there a law that you cannot ask these personnel questions? Sheesh!

What was your first paying job?

Babysitting was the start, then moved on to other jobs in the craft industry which I love. And after all these years I’m still babysitting only now I don’t get paid for it! Wait a second that means I’m going backwards. Not fair!

Name your top 5 celebrity heartthrobs.

John Travolta X 5 (I got to shake his hand and get his autograph in Las Vegas and he is every bit the gentleman they say he is)

Tattoos & piercings?

No tattoos! Just ear piercings.

Name of your favorite shade of lipstick.

I do not wear any only because I heard along time ago that if you start you have to continue because your own lip color is gone. Is this just an old wives tale?

How do you order your Starbucks?

Grande, decaf carmel Machiatto just to name one. Actually I could use one right now, be right back…
