Nourish and Nestle

We built our home 12 years ago and there are several features of it that I really love: #1 is my 'office'. I carved out a room just for me and my crafting. It's everything I hoped it would be. #2 is that my counter tops have all been raised. I'm a tall gal and I really appreciate the height as I spend a lot of time in the kitchen. #3 is that its an eclectic home. I don't know if anyone could nail down the 'style'. I like many different styles and our home reflects most of them.

When our home was being built, I found several antique sideboards that I turned into vanities for some of our bathrooms.

I'm all about good looking organization, I call it functional aesthetics. When my organizational vessels are good looking, then I'm more inclined to keep my stuff organized. I use old silver pieces to store my knitting stuff, pretty glass canisters for my paint brushes, etc...

I spent 10 great years in Nashville and fell in love with the city and the surrounding country. There are some phenomenal homes there and I think I'd love to see the home of Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban. It's on lots of land so it would surely have a country estate feel to it and I think it'd be a great mix of classic and contemporary...and family.

1. Redo my laundry room
2. Paint the exterior brick
3. Make the landscaping less maintenance-intensive

Here's what I might be be doing at any given time:

Knitting

Thanks for this honor! After having a banking career followed by a rewarding and blissful 'mom' career, I'm enjoying my third career of just creating things. It's so great to be acknowledged for doing something you love.
