Purpose

This blog/website/shop is all about home decor, design and a little home improvement, focusing a whole lot on DIY/repurposing projects and interior decorating which is written, edited and curated solely from Skaie’s perspective. Her ideas stem from her years of experience crafting, decorating and designing (largely using reclaimed/found materials) with her family who were trained and competed in Minnesota’s 4H program. She’s also a singer/songwriter, which greatly  influences the many quirky, “rockers-don’t-follow-rules” design choices and ideas. You can take the singer off the stage, but never the stage outta the singer.
