about

Hey y’all!

I’m Nancy, an east coast girl who lives in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia.
I love it here, right on the coast.

I’m a wife and mother of 2 … grown children. Wow, how did that happen so fast?

And… I am an Artsy Chick!

Yep, according to my husband, I am. He has called me his “artsy chick” since we met 32 years ago.

As a matter of fact, when I decided to write a blog, he was the one who came up with the name.
He’s awesome, I think I’ll keep him.

This is my guy (and me)…

I’m a thrifting, painting, budget decorating kind of girl.
I’m always on the lookout for a bargain….and often find one!
I love “treasure hunting” (thrift store shopping) and making things pretty.
My husband and I love to DIY anything. Like our home of 17 years, for example.
You can read a bit about it here.

This blog is the place I come to share my love of all things creative…with you.
Tutorials, furniture makeovers, decor on a budget, and so much more.

I am enjoying re.storing & re.styling old, vintage furniture & home decor ….so it can be re.loved!

This “artsy chick” is …

…a huge goofball, young-minded (not sure I’ll ever really “grow up” which is fine with me!), a bit of type A and just silly.

I’m so happy to have you here and look forward to being able to share this “adventure” called life with you here on the blog!
