About Us

Our Mission: To nurture and teach young hearts and hands through the joyful art of sewing and 

creativity, while sharing God's love with them.

We believe every child is a unique masterpiece created by God, gifted with incredible potential for creativity and imagination. 

Through our sewing, art, baking, & diverse learning programs, we aim to:

• Inspire Wonder: Help children discover the joy of creating something beautiful with their own hands
• Build Confidence: Empower kids to believe in their abilities as they master new skills
• Share Love: Demonstrate God’s love through patient instruction, encouragement, and celebration of each child's progress
• Foster Community: Create a welcoming space where children can learn, laugh, and  build friendships
• Teach Values: Instill principles of patience, perseverance, kindness, and the satisfaction of  completing meaningful work

We are dedicated and committed to providing a safe, nurturing environment where children can explore their creativity 

while learning thru their talents and gifts. 

 Our loving home studio is located in Buckeye, AZ in the beautiful community of Verrado.  My name is Jen Bartolomeo, and my small business began at my kitchen table many years ago when my children were young.  I have been teaching children and adult classes  working with all ages, backgrounds, and disabilities and am very passionate for my students and their families.  I have enjoyed growing my passion for over 10 years and excited to announce our latest news! In mid January of 2026 we will be moving to a new studio space in downtown Verrado!  ( Home address for current classes will be sent upon registration completion.) 

 If our classes do not show up on our page, that means we are full. Please contact us to join our waiting list: 530-514-4080 by text, call, or email: thecountrycactus2020@gmail.com

If you would like to schedule a private group of friends or family, please reach out and we can discuss any special ideas you may have including celebrations of any kind.
