Meet CactiJ

Hi, I’m Janel.

I grew up in South Texas, and have called Central Texas my home for well over 20 years.  From little on, I have been creatively inspired by the gifts of Mother Nature, especially the allure of cacti and succulents.  For decades, whilst working in corporate America, I have captured the whimsical beauty of these natural wonders in table top gardens.  Like many folks, 2020 encouraged me to lasso my dreams, and make them a reality.  With that, I am incredibly excited to share my love for “gifts that grow” beyond the creations that I have gifted to my friends and family for years.

I have a particular interest in upcycling and repurposing materials.  I specialize in unique, one-of-a-kind works of art as well as custom arrangements for any occasion.  My home studio is located in Georgetown TX.
