Your workshops are acting as emotional therapy to lift the spirits and gladden the hearts of those who attend. YOU GO GIRL!
Carolyn Wear, ASID, MO
I have to say that your website is the most beautiful and calming website I've seen in a long time; from the color palette, to the organization, to the imagery; it's simply mesmerizing. It's like taking a virtual retreat.

What intrigues me most, are your designs and your color choices. You are really a great artist. Thanks
for the fun!
Gail Schwab, Oshkosh, WI
Just a quick note to tell you how much I enjoyed meeting you, and that all of my girlfriends and I had a GREAT time learning how to make your beautiful Christmas cookies! We all truly loved the workshop, and are excited to make cookies for our families for the holidays.
Gayle Buth, Appleton, WI
I want to thank you for doing such a GREAT job at Saturday's cookie workshop. I enjoyed all of it, and
learned a lot.
Mary Piette, Neenah, WI
I can't tell you enough how much your kindness today meant to me. You were so gracious to have me come into your home and help me with the icing.
Your lounge was so inviting. You really do have an eye – perhaps I should say flare – for decorating. YOU ROCK when it comes to decorating anything from cookies to jewelry to gardens to lounges, etc.
I've learned a lot from you in the short time I've known you. You are a very talented lady.
You are one "Hell of a Lady." When there is work to get done, don't call Ghostbusters…..CALL
DAWN KOEHLER!!!
Carol Kessler, Appleton, WI
You have such a great thing going for you. Your business is wonderful.

Wow! You amaze me. I am so proud of you, and all that you've accomplished!
C. Casey, NY
Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are such an inspiration in all that you do. I truly appreciated learning from such a talent. My family will thank you too. My 5 year old was so impressed with how my cookies turned out. I had such a good time last night, and I look forward to attending another workshop.
Krista Mantey, Appleton, WI
Thanks, Dawn, for a fun-filled evening of cookie decorating! I truly enjoyed it. You are a wonderful teacher.
Cathy VanElzen, Appleton, WI
I LOVE YOUR TAKE ON DECORATING….. it is so cool that you create your own designs. THAT IS AWESOME!
Thanks for the great memories. It was so much fun and we feel we learned a lot.
Sue Gregor, Davison, MI
My mom had a blast last night….. she was really excited to go home and show dad her cookies. Dad was super impressed. He was so cute. His favorite was the mittens, and he asked mom if she'd show him how it was done.

I have attended amazing gatherings in Dawn’s garden, from intimate get-togethers to large parties. Dawn has a real eye for composition, color, and creating points of interest – like her koi pond! She has helped me a great deal with my outdoor space, and her advice is invaluable.
IKL, Chicago
I was just given a gift of your cookies…they are gorgeous and so good. Thank you for your gift of being such a special artist.

Words do not capture the essence of what Dawn Koehler’s creations evoke when you see her designs. Dawn has a talent that captures a person’s individuality. There is a passion, a beauty and a personal touch in everything Dawn designs that makes you feel unique and special. When wearing her jewelry or displaying her designer cookies or asking her advice on home decorating, I am guaranteed to have others compliment me and ask where can they get these items. Dawn creates beyond items…she creates and captures the emotions of her clients. I do not have a patio garden but a private sanctuary Dawn created that allows me to escape the daily stresses and remember how to relax and dream. Thank you Dawn for all you do and may others find the inspiration in your designs like I have.
Kathy G., Appleton, WI
Dawn has a flair for elements and design that transform space into a pleasurable environment. Unique, personal, and fun!
Thom F., Green Bay, WI
I have known Dawn Koehler for nearly 14 years. When I met her on location at a photoshoot, she was the stylist for the products I was having photographed for an annual report. She has been a source of inspiration ever since. Dawn is a true designer. She’s an innovative thinker and a creative individual. Her ideas flow and she is very prolific in her work. Dawn is also a “go-getter.” She gets an idea and runs with it. Somehow Dawn is able to take her passions in life and draw on them, whether it be gardening, baking, jewelry-making or being with her family. Dawn knows how to take the important things in life and tap into them to activate her creative energy. I have always been enamored by her style and her ease when it comes to creating a beautiful piece of art. She makes it all look so effortless…but being a designer myself, I know that it’s anything but easy. Keep up the good work, Dawn. Congratulations on your new website!
C. Casey, NY
Dawn Koehler is a very warm, fun, creative person. She can make anyone instantly comfortable with her retro hospitality. With an amazing gift for design and humor, Dawn helps you bring out your inner artist. What you take away from her workshops is so much more than a beautiful piece of jewelry or the most unbelievable cookies. You leave with knowledge, ideas, and new found confidence to continue designing and making hand-made gifts forever.

These cookies should be in an international creative contest – they’d win first prize!
Sue M., KS
With her artistic eye and decorating expertise, Dawn transformed my home. I like the fact that she used much of my current décor in new ways thus giving a new look with ease on my pocketbook.
Susan O., Appleton, WI
Thank you so much for re-arranging my living room. It reflects such elegance.
Suzy H., Oshkosh, WI
I learned that some very simple cookie designs, when decorated with Dawn’s techniques, end up looking very professional.
Lois D., Appleton, WI
With Dawn’s color expertise and decorating flair, she turned my house redecorating project from a chore to an adventure…and my home looks great!
Mary B., Oshkosh, WI
I want to tell you again what a lovely job you did today at the cookie workshop. You are not only an artist but a good teacher – and my sister-in-law and I had such a good time!
Tina Haffeman, Oshkosh, WI
Dawn has a remarkable sense for jewelry design. Her pieces are so engaging, I always get compliments when I wear them. They definitely have an air of collectibility.

My husband had entirely different tastes in decorating our new house than I envisioned. It was very frustrating for me until Dawn Koehler worked through our ideas and merged them into a workable solution. I thought we would have to live with white walls forever. Our new home now feels warm and comfortable. Thank you, Dawn.
Bob and Nancy Cabler, Surprise, AZ
The magnetic photo collage in the large wood frame really makes an attractive wall hanging vs the cluttered mess that was once on my refrigerator. Thank you!
Greg D., Green Bay, WI
I’ve never seen more beautiful cookies. Dawn’s cookies are simply works of art…not to be missed.
Ben M., Green Bay, WI
The dried floral arrangement Dawn designed in my mother’s vintage soup tureen makes the perfect centerpiece for my dining room table.
Suzy H., Oshkosh, WI
My kitchen is organized and more functional! Thank you for all the helpful tips.
Greg D., Green Bay, WI
Besides your designer cookies being so beautiful on my table for Easter, they taste awesome!
Suzy H., Oshkosh, WI
The floral and plaid accent pillows you designed were the perfect touch to add color and pattern to my
living room.
Kathy G., Appleton, WI
Dawn has an excellent sense of balance with an eye for style! She uses her energy, creativity, and organizational skills to infuse her designs with a graceful sense of order and precision. Dawn creates beautiful interiors by incorporating the elements and principles of design as she arranges furnishings and accessories to enhance the beauty and comfort of every home she designs.
