About Me

My name is Erin, and up until the beginning of 2010, I made my living as a high school English teacher.  On January 9th of 2010, I gave birth to a baby boy!  About forty-five minutes later on January 10th, I gave birth to his twin brother!  They were born ten weeks early and had to spend a month in the NICU.  After considering their compromised immune systems and their delayed development, my husband and I decided that it would be best for our family for me to stay home with the boys.  My husband is also a teacher, and to supplement our income, we had to find something I could do from home on my own schedule.  I had made a few picture frames for my graduating students in the past, but it wasn't until Mother's Day that I made my first flower pot.  The flower pot was a gift for my mother, but I had no idea how nice it was going to turn out!  It was so pretty that I immediately realized the potential for selling them.  After several family members ordered their own pots, others saw the pots and wanted some for themselves.  Erin's Flower Pots and More was born!  To give customers information and ideas for their orders, I created this website.  The flower pots and picture frames make perfectly affordable gifts, and if you can imagine it, I can probably make it!
