About

Rachel & Wholesome Handiworks
I’m Rachel – Welcome to Wholesome Handiworks!

NICE TO MEET YOU!

My name is Rachel Decker, content creator and founder of Wholesome Handiworks. I am a country girl from Vermont, who has lived and worked in the suburbs of New Jersey for more than half my life. Perhaps it was my nature-soaked upbringing – or just my nature – but I’ve always had a disposition of gentleness and kindness; a drive for self-sufficiency, resourcefulness, and frugal living; and a fondness for the outdoors, old-timey things, animals, crafts and creativity, simple pleasures, and good clean fun!  

I guess you can say I have a passion for all things wholesome, and taking a practical, hands-on approach to crafting life itself! This site is the expression of my deepest passions and gifts.

Who am I?

In my 20+ years as a Christian, wife, DIY house renovator, self-taught herbalist, nature nut, graphic designer, writer, dancer, wannabe gardener, small business owner, vacuum cleaner saleswoman, research geek, newbie backpacker (the list goes on…) let’s just say I’ve picked up a few tips for how to survive and entertain myself on a dime, make the most of what I have, make pretty things out of junk, connect with nature, improve my walk with God, and TEACH others how to do the same.

Full Disclosure:

I am a “jack” of many trades, a “master” of just a few. I am a BEGINNER at many of my endeavors (this site and channel are no exception!) But I have begun….that’s the hard part, right?

I’ve gained so much knowledge – and therefore blessings – from others who were generous enough to SHARE their experience with me (even though many were beginners themselves.) I know it’s my turn to give back.

ANY inspiration or direction I can impart to you, your family (and your circle of influence) will be my greatest achievement in this life, and store up much treasure for my heavenly one. Rest assured that I will also be bringing true experts to the table on many wholesome subjects, giving you a rich, well-rounded, and valuable experience here.

How do we live in this fallen world, but not be of it?

Life is too short not to be enjoyed fully. Yet our eternal soul is too precious to risk by holding onto destructive beliefs and selfish, toxic behaviors, or partaking in filthy or fruitless activities.

So, is there such a thing as “good clean fun?” Can a more “wholesome” lifestyle be easier, more exciting, fulfilling, happy and healthy? I wholeheartedly believe so! Please TRUST ME to show you! On this site (as well as my YouTube channel and more) I’ll share with you everything I’ve discovered!

I promise – good, CLEAN fun does exist!

Here you’ll learn EASY and inexpensive ways to incorporate FUN and wholesome products and activities into your everyday life. Learn habits that will create a profoundly POSITIVE effect on your mood, outlook, living conditions, and finances, and improve your relationships, and your physical, mental, and spiritual health.

Sound too good to be true? Think a more Wholesome lifestyle sounds lame?
I triple-dog dare you to TRY IT and see for yourself!

Think a more Wholesome lifestyle sounds lame?

This will be an exciting and rewarding adventure for us both… THANK YOU for joining me!
God Bless,
