A while back I made a message board out of a section of an old screen door. I thought it was really cute and put it in my booth at Doc Holliday’s Emporium. Months later it was still sitting there collecting dust. Last weekend I decided to change around my booth a bit and add a few things. I sat the message board aside planning on rehashing it. Greg the man of wisdom in my life said “that’s ugly” WHAT!...

I should have deleted this blog and not let anyone know about this piece I just finished. It is so beautiful and looks amazing at the end of my bed. When Heather ask me for a bench for her bedroom I dug this bench out of my storage shed. It was so ugly and looked so 80’s/90’s. I mean rally light greenish velvet with a button back. Not the style she is going for in her home. I had a...

I get to know and love their families. I have taught many so my heart is full and heart broken all in one. We have endured many ups and many downs over the years. I have seen this school broken and down, up and soaring....

It’s COLD! I do not like winter at all it makes me feel sad. I’m not kidding at all it makes me miss summer and the hot sun. I like to wear shorts and flip-flops. Wearing so many clothes makes me feel closed up and closed in. On the bright side I’ve planned some crazy projects for this weekend inside.

Meet LaTonya

I am a creative with a vintage soul and a happy heart. Just as I set out with a new purpose to restore my life 5 years ago, I try to find the beauty in beaten up and forgotten pieces for the home.
