In a Nutshell

Teacher by day.  Thrifter by night.  Curator of three antique booths.  Dweller of a 99 year old Craftsman Bungalow in my dream neighborhood.

Like I said, I teach fourth grade.  I've been at it since 1999.  But I think there's an interior designer stuck in this body, even though I have my masters in elementary education.   I have a silly circus dog named Sir Chester and a scruffy baby with an under bite named Gizmo.

As for those three antique booths, I thrift all the time to support this hobby.  And about half the things I buy actually end up for sale.  The rest stays at home with me.

I like clothes and food.  I'm addicted to Pinterest and Instagram.

I might also be a bit of a hoarder.

The first step is admitting it.
