Show Notes
This week, Rebecca and Shannon sit down with artist, designer, and all-around creative force Shari Jenkins Schmidt. Shari shares what it's like to live in and restore the historic Collins Mansion, her ongoing restoration projects in the old Beckman's building, and her plans to open a one-of-a-kind Santa museum in downtown Great Falls. She also talks about her inspiration behind the Beckman's storefront display honoring Norma Ashby Smith's 90th birthday and how her work ended up on Leanin' Tree greeting cards, mugs, and magnets found in stores across the country.
