A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Amy! I grew up the daughter of an antique Auctioneer in CT. I was surrounded in my childhood home and my father's workplace by beautiful things, well crafted things both in terms of durability and design. I loved the way the light would hit certain paintings around our house which was a 1901 Victorian. I think these things in a way, became a part of me and who I am. But I'm not materialistic...life has made sure of that ;) I left New England, went to college outside of  Philadelphia (a city full of architecture, history and an amazing art scene, btw). My English Literature Major and Fine Art and Business Administration Double Minor led me to Public Relations and Marketing.  I worked in PR and Marketing at one of Philadelphia's premier firms, The Tierney Group, working on campaigns with companies and organizations such as Dun & Bradstreet, Aramark, Jones Apparel Group, The Sidney Kimmel Foundation,  WAWA, Exxon, The Philadelphia Orchestra and The Philadelphia Art Museum, among others.  I left Philly for DC and worked for Boeing as a Presentation Business Analyst assigned to NASA HQ, interpreting and preparing presentations for the Office of Aeronautics and Space Transportaion.   Everything changed when I married a USNA Grad in Annapolis, who was a Marine Helicopter Pilot. We've moved all over the world in the past 18 years.  I've loved something about each region (and countries) where we have lived  and traveled to (my favorites were our 4 years in San Diego, our year in Japan and a whirlwind stop and a tour for just our little family on Wake Island which is an Atol between Hawaii and Guam).  
We are now in the "civilian" world, happily settled (for the time being) in the Rocky Mountain West. I've had to create a new "home" 15 times in 19 years of marriage. That's a lot of moves. That's a lot of figuring out where the couch is going to go. And that's a lot of projects. My passion for art and design has been ever present throughout our adventures,  and my real life interiors experience as well as formal design training, have provided me with a love for helping friends and clients make their house into a home.

WHY ANOTHER DESIGN BLOG?

 My blog  allows me to share my passion for design as well as my portfolio, home tours, design 101 posts about antiques and collectables,  finds including high and low decorating (SPLURGE OR STEAL posts) 
and just about everything under the sun. 
So, commona-my house (Come on a my house...like, "Come over to my house"). It's an old song. One of my favorites. One that my Grams used to sing. 
It makes me happy.

I blog about everything under the sun, because there is always a lot going on at my house!
