I am a SAHM of 3-1 girl, 2 boys. They are all school age. I love shabby chic, cottage, vintage, retro, and yard sales. I like to sew, craft, and take pictures. I watch lots of movies and read tons of books. I love pink things, tattered and worn things-things that have had a previous life. I like things that are useful. I like things that are useless but beautiful. My 'degree' is in history and geography. I am 40 yrs old. I live in a small town in south Texas and wouldn't leave here for a million dollars!

I have too many faves to list, but I absolutely LOVE historical fiction-but not the tacky romance novels. I'll read anything relating to medieval times, edwardian and victorian England, U.S. during 1920's-30's-40's. I read a lot of Christian fiction, too.

I listen to anything and everything except rap. Really! I drive my kids nuts in the car because I am such a channel flipper! Oldies, 70's, Pop, Rock, Dance, Christian, Mood, whatever!

I don't watch a lot of TV but if I am watching the box it's on Fox News. I do make time for Mad Men and a big guilty pleasure of mine is catching an epidsode or two of "The Real Housewives of...(where ever)" on Bravo. I have recently discovered 'Walking Dead', too-love it!

I like to sew using vintage fabrics and trims. I usually make children's clothes. I do not consider myself an artist, but I do like to create things. I am just beginning in paper crafts and collage. I love taking photos, but am not much of a scrapbooker.

Beautiful, sparkly things. Old, worn, tattered, previously loved things. Fairies. Roses. Tiny things (to put in matchboxes). Interesting old books.
