Welcome to my blog! I love making every day beautiful in "My Old Kentucky Home," a 1921 yellow brick charmer in the (re)making. I truly enjoy sharing my creative ideas with others and I hope you will be inspired here. I am a music teacher and licensed KY Realtor with a passion for old homes, decorating, collecting antiques, gardening, and creating lovely things!

Look for my "Style Tips" in posts on decorating, home improvement, DIY and craft tutorials, gardening, holidays and entertaining. You can also find Christian encouragement, healthy recipes, and ideas for cleaning and organizing. There is always something going on around here!
