No, I am not retiring from designing – I will still be selling my designs at Funky Playground! But after a wonderful year and a half as owner of Funky Playground Designs, it has become necessary for me to say good-bye. Although this was a difficult decision, I know this is what is best for me as well as for the continued success of Funky Playground. I want to thank all of the loyal FPD customers and dedicated staff who have supported me on this adventure and wish you all the best.
I have chosen to pass the store on to someone who has been by my side assisting with the day-to-day operations since day one; someone who I know cares about the Playground as much as I do and is honest, dedicated and reliable. So, effective September first, Cindy Siebert (AKA scribler) will be the new owner of Funky Playground.
And if that isn’t exciting enough – Cindy is having the first open call for designers in almost a year and a half! What a fantastic opportunity to get in at one of the warmest, friendliest and supportive design teams around!
Funky Playground Designs is looking for a few designers to join our design team. If you are looking for a store with a fun, supportive environment then look no further than FPD.
