Blue Door Essentials

History

Founder, Deb Drager began her career as a freelance graphic designer with a BFA from Missouri State in 1980. Deb embarked on numerous creative services from print collateral, branding, tradeshow & special event displays, fashion & product illustration to custom artwork. In the early 90's she studied with Faux Effects, Inc. International in Vero Beach, Florida and became a Master Faux Artisan & Decorative Finisher, which expanded her creative offering to surface adornment for walls, ceiling, floors, furniture in homes and commercial spaces. Deb's specialty is theme-development which includes finish packages for hotels, restaurants, retail businesses as well as custom venues. Deb's passion has been instructing and mentoring creative kindred-spirits!

This area of expertise continues today in Deb's own projects through artFORMS, in her hometown of Talihina, Oklahoma where she offers paint classes, custom art services and private lessons.

Deb embraced a huge step to change her lifestyle choices after a breast cancer battle in 1995. Her successful Drager Design Studio with seven employees was reduced to ashes after this dramatic event stopped her in her tracks along with a hysterectomy at 39 years young, knowing she would not be a Mother almost destroyed her will to live. Deb based her value on what she could produce and was a certifiable 'workaholic', and desperately wanted to have children.

Since Deb is resilient, tenacious and heart-strong, this allowed a doorway to redirect her to reevaluate her healthcare choices and she began investigating ALL NATURAL products. At this turning point, she discovered 'chemically-free' cleaning options with NORWEX, safer hygiene products with FRONTIER Coop and doTERRA essential oils for GIFTS OF THE EARTH plant-based therapeutic options for emotional, physical and spiritual support.

Thus, blue door essentials was born; to share, educate and create healthier choices for others.

Testimonies with incorporating smart choices into every day living have included surviving rocky mountain tick fever, allergy & skin issues, reducing inflammation & pain, dealing with intense tmj and ent issues, improving metabolism, incorporating exercise and time in the trees, as well as made-with-love products to care for skin, hair and body.

“I have collaborated with many ‘healers’ and knowledgeable souls about the wisdom of what Mother Earth provides. I believe God created our bodies to HEAL THEMSELVES with the right solutions of harmony; mind-body-spirit! Being healthy is a choice! Taking care of YOU is first and foremost and you must participate in your own self-care. Investing in time for ‘being still’, listening for motivation and desire and then sharing these gifts with others is my philosophy for living in the moment and being my best self!” ---Deb Drager
