I am Tipper a mother, wife, daughter, sister , artist, and hopefully considered a friend to many. I consider myself a mountain girl (even though my husband likes to remind me the mountains here are not nearly as big as the ones he came from a whole three counties away).

I have always had a love for history, antiques, vintage finds,-basically anything old. As long as I can remember I have craved a connection with my heritage and the creativity that abounds in it.

I have a wesite- the Blind Pig & The Acorn where I celebrate my Appalachian Heritage. My hope is to weave what went before into a hope for the future and an appreciation for the present. I hope you'll drop by the Blind Pig-I feature my family's music, my artwork, Appalachain history, Mountain Folk, and have a monthly giveaway- Spread the Love.
