The creation of Shell Coastal Designs
My busy life never allowed me to go to school for Interior Design, which would have been my dream job. I have been married 18 years and I have raised two nieces, who are now grown and have given me 3 beautiful grandchildren, and am still raising my 17 year old daughter, who keeps me on my toes. I also have my 87 year old father living with me and he can be a handful but it is very fulfilling. I work part time and to give me some me time and some peace of mind I started making home decor items with my favorite place in mind, the beach. My husband would say it is an obsession, I would call it a hobby, but either way it gives me the time to use my creativity, which has been stirring in me for years. I have always been creative, I love to decorate homes, I take pride in my Christmas decor, I have always made all of my children's halloween costumes by hand, and for many years, my husband and I made American Girl Doll Beds and bedding and sold them on ebay.
I am in love with the beach, sand and sun and my hopes are that someday I can retire on the beach.
