Everybody has a story. Everybody has a style. Both of mine began when I was a young girl, smuggling things from home to trade them for fabric and craft supplies during elementary school. Several chapters later, my child-like love for design has grown into a full-fledged passion.
When I am not thinking about caring for my husband and four children (four years and under!), I am thinking about all things home. I love creating interiors that evoke a story — a history of sorts — of the owners. You can often find me on the hunt for incredible antique and vintage furniture. Yes, with kids in tow! My home in Texas, a 1921 foursquare, has become a design lab of sorts – A Storied Style often chronicles our journey through its renovation!
While my husband was in school the first several years of our marriage, I became very resourceful, learning to sew and paint furniture; and also very savvy, refining my eyes to see past dirt and bad upholstery to the potential in a piece. Assuredly, I am testimony you can have a home you love to come home to, and looks like YOU, no matter how small the budget!
This blog is dedicated to all of the ideas constantly swimming through my brain, inspiration I discover in everyday life, smart DIY projects, and you, the reader – may you find your own Storied Style.
