Busy bee!

I’ve been busy, busy, busy! First on the list is my new online store, Bluebird Goods. After moving, I got so inspired by this 1927 bungalow with it’s original stained glass windows and kitchen cabinets.

Friday Fun: The Chicago Living and Giving Show

Hangar workspace

One of my New Year’s Eve to-do list items was to find a large workspace. We’ve been paying rent on a storage space and a parking spot for the camper, and with the addition of this new studio/storage/camper spot we will actually decrease a bill, which worked out kind of well. Anyway, so I’m trying [...]
