One of the perks of this job is the cool people I get to meet and work with to create pieces for their home. Shannon is one of those people. She has purchased a few pieces from me, she picks out the most amazing colors and her pieces are always a hit. This china [...]

I first saw Ivey (a long time ago) waiting for someone to rescue her from the furniture hallways at a local resale shop. I loved her but her price tag was much higher than my budget would allow. As I kept going back to the store in my weekly furniture shopping trips, she kept [...]
