What It's All About
There are few things in life as exciting as finding great thrift store furniture. I mean, the potential...the possibilities...it makes me giddy. And what about crafting--how much fun is that? Me, I mosaic, crochet, collage, take on little sewing projects, pick up a paint brush from time to time. Am I producing masterpieces? Not even close. But I hang some of my projects on the walls or place them on other surfaces in my apartment because I get a lot of pleasure from looking at them. I like them. They’re cool. And they’re mine. And that brings me to the real thrill of all of this—creating a space that’s one-of-a-kind and personal. Because somewhere along the way I figured out that there’s no such thing as a perfect home, only an imperfect home that’s perfect for me.
