From the time I was a young child, I have loved interior design and beautiful things. Ten-year-old me would create "floor plans" on notebook paper and design the dream homes of my siblings. We would have an initial meeting and after jotting down their wish list, I got to work creating the home of their dreams. After designing the layout, I would take the Sunday newspaper ads (are those still a thing?) and cut out pictures of furniture, lamps, and accessories to create mood boards for each room in the home. When I was all done, weeks and weeks later, I would showcase my work and pitch my design ideas to a sibling. If you too enjoy beautiful things and the process of turning a vision into a reality, welcome!
