About

Hi!

I'm Melanie.

I was born and raised in Colorado. I love being a Colorado chick. I do like to trail run and put my bare feet in the rivers. And yes, I do like to snowboard a mountain and drink a beer at the top. I will forever be a Colorado girl.


{UPDATED February 20th, 2013}

I am writing this blog now from Orange County, CA, my new home. Since 2011 I moved out of Colorado to Santa Fe, New Mexico. Back to Colorado for a month in 2012. Then flew to Seattle and came down the West Coast for two months on a moped with my lover (who was badass and rode his bicycle the entire way.) I have been living in Dana Point, CA since September of 2012.

Please hop on over to my blog about my Pacific Coast adventure at DreamBigRideFar.blogspot.com

So I am finally getting settled and comfy in my new apartment. I have ideas flying out of me like a dream cloud of cotton candy and sawdust and paint! I have a new project/business endevour to explore, an empty apartment to work on, and two weddings to help get the creative juices flowing this year.

Here we go, Cali, set me free!

I have a hard time picking just one thing to do as a "career" for my life. If I did have to choose just one though, it would do my heart and creative mind very good to be in the beautiful world of decorating.

Why would I want to do that? 

From the beginning, I remember in all the houses I have lived in I have painted a wall, or came up with a new theme, a new color scheme. I have these things in my house now that I have collected over the years and from the many cities and towns in Colorado I have be able to live in, and that's what makes up my decor now. I love that! And I am so excited to keep that collection growing no matter where this journey takes me in the end.

So, I guess I'd just like to share that joy and sense of HOME with anyone I can. You're space is where your heart is.

Love&Light,
Melanie
