Show notes
Dorothy loved having this opportunity to sit down with two wonderfully creative Memphis women, the Archer sisters, Kristen & Lindsey Archer. Arch'd takes the sisters creativity and transfers it directly to the wood, via Kristen's photography and Lindsey's graphic design. They fill us in on their assembly line process, working in batches, how they working with family, and how they like doing things that are creative outside of businesses. https://getarchd.com/ Subscribe to the Positively Creative Newsletter here!
