“Hi! I am Karen Santiesteban and I am the owner of Patchhousedecor. I am retired from the State of Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.”
That’s how Karen introduces herself on Facebook. Patch House Decor is her shop of handmade wreaths, swags and arrangements, made in Cedar Park, Texas.
It started at the craft shows
“I got started making wreaths about 5 years ago. I got inspired when I went to craft shows and looked at all the pretty wreaths and arrangements. I told myself I can do that.”
“So I started following wreath making people on Facebook.”
“I have learned a lot by just watching.”
Something for every season
Karen’s pieces are big and full, and most have a little story in the middle: a longhorn sign in burnt orange, a lattice-top pie for the harvest, a gingerbread man, Uncle Sam in his starry hat. Her Etsy shop is sorted by the calendar, with wreaths for spring, Easter, summer, the Fourth, fall, Halloween and Christmas.
Where to find her
Karen has been selling on Etsy since 2023, and she’s back at the craft shows too, this time on the other side of the table. You’ll find her at the Georgetown Christmas Shopping Spectacular, November 12–14, 2026.
