Exotic Handbag Queen

Exotic Handbag Queen Alexandra Knight is my idol.

First and most importantly, Alexandra went to Hollins College. She was actually just a year older than I was and I remember her vividly. She had the best style—simple and sophisticated. She was smart and unique, and I knew way back then she was going to [...]

Amazing Artist – Elissa Gore

Recently, I have taken a liking to landscape artwork, mainly the abstract stuff. There is something so serene about looking at a clearing, a river or lake surrounded by greenery and seasonal attributes. I stumbled across Elissa Gore not too long ago and fell in love with her work.

The Chinese Ginger Jar

I used to laugh at how many blue and white Chinese Ginger Jars my mom had in the house when I was a young girl. I thought they were “old-fashioned.” Now, I would die to have my mom’s collection…die. Sadly, she sold them off in numerous garage sales over the years. If I only [...]

Bathroom Brainstorm

The title of this post is really not what it seems.

Artwork, paint, paint touch up, more [...]

She had endured surgery, countless rounds of chemotherapy, and was searching for a few moments of serenity to escape [...]
