I'm an indie accessories designer, author, crafter, entrepreneur, wife, and mother of four.
My official bio:
Lexie Barnes is a sassy, spirited accessories designer living a noisy life in the quiet Pioneer Valley of Western Massachusetts. Lexie thrives on the entreprenurial energy and fast pace of a two-career marriage (husband is Cory Barnes, owner of Spire USA) while balancing the needs of four sons. Lexie recently published a book, Sew What! Bags, and is hard at work on her next one, which will focus on projects for the home and sharing her style secrets.
This summer she is busy getting ready for the launch of her latest collection of bags and keeping up with Henry, Sebastian, Monty, and Calvin, her beloved troupe of boys. In her spare time, Lexie and Cory are working to grow and expand Twist, their indie craft fair which debuted in Northampton last year.
