Hi! I'm Julie...
A former city girl now living in beautiful Eastern Ontario. Former corporate employee turned “maker”, lover of the countryside, family and pets…I am the owner of Cedar & Fern.
I began crafting, painting and sign making since moving to my country home and started to have family and friends asking to buy my handmade pieces…so I thought “okay.. why not” maybe I can turn this into something bigger than I ever imagined.
Although I have worked from home for years, I have now traded in my “9 to 5”, conference calls and deadlines, to work with tools, wood, paint and stain that now forge this new chapter in my life.
When I am not in my studio you’ll find me at my retail shop in the heart of Alexandria Ontario or in the company of my sweet little dog and new kitten!
The best part of all of this is that you are here on this journey with me! Without you, none of this would be possible. So from my heart…
THANK YOU AND WELCOME TO CEDAR & FERN
My retail shop is located at 8 Main Street North in picturesque Alexandria, Ontario! Come shop for handmade wood signs, home decor and gifts. So many items lovingly and joyfully crafted by Canadian makers.
My studio is a historic, rural log cabin nestled in a sea of ferns under a dense forest of towering cedars. An abundance of flowers, birds and wildlife inspire creativity. It's an idyllic place for me to create.
