About Me:
I currently work at a Lawn and Garden center. I have always loved the garden and design, both landscape and interior. I am also an antique dealer and I love to use old salvaged fines in new and creative ways. I offer consultations by the hour for interior & exterior design suggestions.
Favorite area of home improvement:
Landscape and using vintage and antiques in the home and garden.
