OK, well, my name is Katy. One thing I hate to do is write about myself, but one thing I like to do most is make stuff.
I've got too many collections-- action figures, garden gnomes, old children's books, and tons more. I definitely spend lots of time at antique shops and flea markets.
Everything I make is inspired by everything I love, so I love what I do!
Making stuff, traveling, garden gnomes, Wonder Woman, collecting lots of stuff like female action figures, hedgehogs, bats, good art, good books, good music, vintage and antique toys, Alice in Wonderland, Princess Leia, Halloween, Arts and Crafts era, All things alpine, treehouses, having fun, making and wearing costumes
