The plan was to be a decorative arts curator, but as we all know, plans change. I am a stay at home mother of two, living in the Midwest, who bakes when I should be ironing, and stitches when I should be mopping the floor.

I grew up in a family where everyone made “stuff”.  Sometimes it was out of necessity, sometimes to prove it could be done, mostly I think it was just a better way to get exactly what we were looking for.

I love learning new tricks to create what I’ve pictured in my head.   Every time I make something, I learn something about my process and myself.  Growing along with the process is one of my favorite things about a homemade life.

Thanks for visiting mybricole.
