Hello! I'm Lori, owner of Tom&Chickpea - I am a furniture artist, visual storyteller and custom canvas artist as well. I am inspired by nature and emotion and gravitate towards the boho style, but with my interpretation of what that means to me. I use Earth friendly products and retail both Wise Owl Paint and Daydream Apothecary each of which can be purchased on site at my shop at One Pinkerton Street in Derry, Nh or online at TomandChickpea.com.
