ABOUT ERIKA, YOUR FAVORITE PARTY HELPER! 

Hey! I am Erika, your favorite party helper! I am the Owner and Creative Mind of She Does Shindigs + 21 violet Beads, a mom to 2 amazing boys and wife to a Navy veteran.  I grew up in the Tampa Bay Area and lived in Florida, most of my life. But I have also lived in North Carolina and moved to the Nashville area in 2023. I love all things creative + crafty, traveling, taking photos, time outdoors, coffee, exploring new towns, experiencing different wineries and PARTIES!  I really enjoy volunteering my time and have with various organizations over the last 15+ years! She Does Shindigs has been a dream in the works for over 20 years. My love for crafts and parties really started when my first son was born, back in 2003. Every holiday, each birthday, any school function, really any time that I could plan something for my family or extended family and friends, I was all about it!  My motto for She Does Shindigs is "Be Your Guest." Literally, be your guest! Let me help you bring your vision to life and lend an extra hand to do that. I have incorporated my other small business, 21 violet BEADS, to offer Bead Bars to my menu of services to include bracelet making, DIY pen bars and keychain + bag charm making. Lets chat soon!

With love and thanks, 

Erika
