Hi, Hi my name is Julie.

I love my family and home.

I am a wife and a mother to

one beautiful daughter,

one dog and one cat.

We made our forever

home in a small seaside town

along the coast of Long Island. Our journey started 11 years ago when we purchased a fixer upper. We fixed up one room at a time. Because we put so much money into fixing our house, I started searching for inexpensive ways to decorate .

I turned our house into a home by shopping at garage sales, thrift shops and consignment stores and I even picked up a thing or two on the side of the road.

I believe you don't have to spend a lot of money to decorate and make your home pretty.

I like to keep my projects as simple as I can.
