about

Hi, I’m Steph. Thanks for stopping by!

For as long as I can remember I’ve been making things: whether I was casting on knitting needles with my gram, hammering, sanding, or gluing at the workbench with my dad or sewing with my mom, I’ve been making and designing and I come by it honestly.

I design buildings by day and make, stitch, cook, and whatever else I can think of by night.  I share it all here, and whatever other “stuff” I’m up to, trying out, or completely in love with.

I recently married my best friend, Brandon (usually  known as “B” here). He’s a designer, too, and stays busy owning his own web design and development business. He keeps things running smooth over here when I act like I know what I’m doing when I try to code and my site disappears.

(Yep, that’s happened, and yep, he fixed it.)

Lucy is the star of the show in our house and spends her days finding the sunniest, most comfy spots to nap and nights helping me with my adventures in making.

We all live in Columbus, Ohio. We like it. It’s a pretty amazing city.
