Welcome to my store! I want to preface this by saying I'm not good at writing these things. My name is Kristen and I'm a fairly simple person, honestly. My husband (USN Retired) and I have been married since 2003 and have three amazing kids. All three of our children were born in different states and we moved to four different cities. Being born and raised in the country in Pennsylvania, I loved the city life at first.

When we lived in San Diego was when I really started creating & building. It was the first time in my adult life that I was at home with our kids. Once our son started school, I filled my spare time by creating home decor for our home, refurbishing pieces we already had, and handmaking gifts for friends & family.

In 2017 when we were facing another cross-country move, knowing it would probably be our last, we decided to buy a home in the country - away from the city. I still remember the first night I stepped outside and saw the stars again.

I began creating once more and, after encouragement from family and friends, decided to open my shop in February 2021. I truly believe that there is an elegance in simplicity; in a single board of wood, a stem of dried flowers, or an ordinary candle. It is my hope to put some of that simplicity & elegance into each product I make and into your home.
