Hi,
I am a wife and a Mom of three beautiful children whom I am very proud of. A husband who supports my habit of beautiful things. I love creating for my family a cozy home and a fun place to come home to. I love being surrounded by pretty things that bring a smile. I love it that our family and friends enjoy our home as much as we do. Looking at beautiful things inspires me and it's just one of many things that makes me happy. Enjoy!!
