FARMHOUSE LIVING

Kristine:Kristine Stark is the creator of Farmhouse Green, where she shares the beauty of everyday life on Instagram, Etsy, and Pinterest. Her love for God is evident in all she does, and she finds joy in discovering the beauty in broken and distressed items that tell stories of time passed. Passionate about connecting with people, Kristine is an entrepreneur and photographer. She has a deep passion for antiques and vintage treasures, particularly those with a Midwest country charm. Inspired by farms and wildflowers, she seamlessly blends her love for the old and the natural into her creative endeavors. Her children not only spark her creativity but also guide her in developing strategies for her business ventures. She is a devoted wife to her best friend and husband of twenty-five years. Together, they have four wonderful children who continually inspire her to see the world through fresh, creative eyes.April:April Eileen is a writer opening hearts to the beauty, the color, the extraordinarily ordinary magic of every day, the aliveness of life, the treasure that is the human experience. Through her writing and Life and Lovely Things platform and community, she invites women to live with more Love and to find richness and meaning in the life they already have. Before creating Life and Lovely Things, April spent nearly a decade managing marketing strategy, communication planning, and product launches for some of the world’s largest brands. She is a writer, forever romantic, a coach, and a homeschooling mother. She dares, amidst chaos and laundry, to dream of moving through life in presence and delight, and to invite others to join her. Choosing to be in Love, she believes, is not naive or idealistic, but might be the single most revolutionary choice a person can make. At the end of the day, she’s a woman, finding her way like everyone else. Her greatest contribution and true life's work, though, is raising her two daughters, the absolute Loves of my Life. She is a forever romantic, a dreamer, and believes choosing Love - to live with Love, to be in Love with Life itself - is not naive or idealistic, but might be the single most revolutionary choice a person can make.
