Day One- Why Blog?

By 10:51 PM ,

Why blog.  I asked myself this very question a few years ago.  I couldn't think of a single thing I really wanted to share with anyone.  But then, let's be honest, I wasn't doing a single thing professionally that I wanted to share.  You see, after years of making popsicle houses, cutting my own curtains, setting Barbie and all her friends up in the most beautiful spaces, (note: Barbie never really did anything but get dressed and get ready to be placed in the 'perfect scene') and every other creative aspect I could do as a child, I decided to go into aviation.  

I know, from aviation to design?  What?! So now, years later, I fly airplanes, teach airplane subjects, schedule airplane events.  Don't get me wrong, I loved it, and still do to an extent, but you have to be true to what makes you feel alive.  So, with the support of my amazing husband, here I am sitting on my sofa in my work out clothes, feet up, writing my first blog post.  I really must get up soon and actually get ready for the day, but I had a few thoughts to share.  

So what is this blog about?  Well, I want to create a place where people who know me, or don't, or are just curious, can hop on and get advice about their spaces.  This seems a bit minor right?  Well not the way I see it.  You see, there are thousands of people out there living uncomfortable because they either don't believe they have the knowledge, the time, the skill, or the money to make something better for themselves.  


They are sitting in rigid lumpy chairs, under fluorescent lights, looking at dreary colors, and living a life they don't love.  Sometimes just a simple switch from fluorescent to a full spectrum lightbulbs and natural light (I'll have more on this later) can make all the difference. Changing from red to light blue, or even adding a plant to a room can make a world of difference.

So that's my purpose really, finding the balance between "function and beauty".  Getting you the research you don't have time to do and helping you enjoy your space.  Whether you are shopping at Crate and Barrel, Ikea, or special ordering from Italy, there are options for your and your space.
