I can design, you can design...and if you don't know that yet, let me teach you!  In our homes, there's always that piece we need to fit a certain spot

or to organize our favorite things.  Let me help you make it not only a reality, but a piece that has your handprint on it.

For years, I had this itch to build something but needed some basic knowledge of the process.  It took a long time to find someone, but once I did, I took off and haven't looked back.  I'd love to be a part of someone else's process and to see the ah-ha moments when someone "gets it" and feels pride in learning a skill of  any kind.
