Mini Bio

I am a 26 year old jack-of-all-trades living in New York City. I am curious about everything and inspired by all of the beauty the world has to offer. If by spreading beauty and joy to a couple people and they spread it to a couple more, soon the world will be beautiful and happy.

Check me out on Pinterest where I collect images and things that inspire me.

Check me out on Etsy where I sell some of the amazing things I find.

Claude Monet summed it up perfectly. “Everyday I discover more and more beautiful things. It’s enough to drive one mad. I have such a desire to do everything, my head is bursting with it.”

  1. Wouldn’t you be a “jill-of-all-trades?”

    What about Halloween? Is it big in nyc…or just LA/SF? I can imagine that you might find some “diversity” among the human element of this holiday, no?

    It’s probably more a pop cultural thing than is intended for your blog…but it sure could be fun to observe, then record, then describe…as only you might!

  2. Well, you are a beautiful lady with great taste. I love that picture of the big cabinet and the oversized musical instruments. Love it! And thank you for mentioning my business, ekster, what a compliment. Hope to meet you one day in NYC, maybe we can go antique hunting? kind regards caroline of Ekster

    • That is the sweetest comment. It is those remarks that inspire me to keep up with my antique hunting and blogging. I am trying to plan a trip down to Virginia this spring to do some hunting, and I would love to stop by your shop. Every time I see a new Facebook post, I end up coveting everything that you have. If you ever make it up to NYC let me know. I can take you to all of my favorite shops.

  3. WOW! Found you via “Ekster” (Been to their shop-divine), and am very impressed with your eye, and fabulous finds (even if half of them are not in my budget!). Have passed your site onto new “Twitter” friends, as some of the French Industrial posts give us goosebumps. Will be checking back with you.
    Kindly

  4. Thank you so much for your comment and spreading the word to your Twitter friends. It’s so inspiring to get feedback that people are actually reading my blog and enjoy what I find! Can’t wait to hear from you in the future.
