About Me:
I am a married mother of three who works full time. I love trying to tap into my creative juices (those same juices I used to swim in). It's even better when I pull something off I am proud of. Luckily, my husband is very handy with tools and (usually) sees the value in my re-designs. We moved to KY from FL in 2010 and have begun trying to renovate our 1994 home with a tiny (more like zero) budget.
Favorite area of home improvement:
Refurbishing old to look new.
