Green State of Oregon

About Me:

Mother of 2 young children, educator with 3 part-time jobs. I started an online shabby chic store recently which allows me to spend a lot more time on my hobbies (and in-turn myself). I love making things!

Gender:

Gal

I am a/an:

Independent Artist/Designer, Supporter, Shopper

(Designers only) I create:

Mostly shabby chic home decor, but I also enjoy card making. Living in Oregon means outdoor activities, like painting, can't happen year-round. Card-making is my indoor craft during those times.

(Designers only) I am willing to do:

Custom orders

(Designers only) I have been featured on:

Various blogs.

(Designers only) My work is sold at:

www.ShabbyNChic.etsy.com where I also have a lot of vintage items. Larger items (furniture) are sold locally only as shipping quotes have been outrageous. And now selling at a local handmade store: Craft Crazy in Salem, Oregon.

Favorite Designers/Artists:

Mary Engelbreit, Laura Ashley, Frida Kahlo (yes, very different - I know).

Favorite Music/Musicians:

Almost anything - I love music! I play music while I create things - it adds to the atmosphere.

Favorite TV Show & Movies:

TV Shows: I love reality TV, especially Survivor and I like crime dramas (CSI, Law and Order). People and what makes them do what they do is very interesting to me.
Movies: Napoleon Dynamite, Little Women, Legends of the Fall - timeless movies are my favorites.

Favorite Books / Authors:

Unfortunately with all of my jobs (which require a lot of reading) and 2 little ones (who require a lot of time), I don't read much for pleasure. I do love Maya Angelou!
