What happens when creativity, courage, and a deep love of home collide?
You get Wendy Conklin, better known as Chair Whimsy.
In this ReBloom Podcast episode, Wendy shares her journey from finding a creative outlet to building a joy-filled brand rooted in play, color, and confidence. What began as a weekend upholstery class quickly bloomed into a business that reimagines antique chairs, expands into vibrant art and textiles, and nurtures a thriving community of creative women.
Wendy believes every woman deserves a home that reflects who she truly is—and she shows us how creativity can be both accessible and transformative. From boldly mixing fabrics to trusting your instincts, her work invites us to loosen perfection, take creative risks, and let whimsy lead the way.
Whether you’re a maker, a creative entrepreneur, or simply longing to bring more personality into your home, this conversation is a gentle reminder that creativity doesn’t have to be complicated—it just needs permission. And we all give you that permission to create with joy!
Listen in and be inspired to ReBloom, one joyful project at a time.
