About Me

                                 Hi my name is Sharla.                                                         
  My FAMILY and my HOME    is a haven of rest, a sanctuary of peace,  and most of all a harbor of love.

    I am blessed to be a mother to three boys who fill my life with so many positive things and who help define and strengthen me to be who I am.
    I feel a sense of gratitude to live in a time, day , and age where we have so many opportunities to express ourselves,be inspired, inspire others, make a difference, build, shape, let our voices be heard and ultimately create who we are.
    My current inspirations help to provoke my interests, that are are quilting, crafting,cooking, all things preparedness, sewing, my family, coupon-ing, thrift shopping, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, refurbishing,  and I love, love all things music.
    Thanks for taking a moment to get to know a bit of me. :)
A wise man once said great words of inspiration  MAKE IT HAPPEN 
and I hope you do just that!

~About Me~

Bon

I am a stay at home mama of five beautiful children.
I love anything and everything that inspires me and gets the cogs turning.(tehe)
I find joy in simple things of life.
My family, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, my photography business, hobbies, talents, expressing, and creating.

I am a HUGE believer that a home should be a safe haven from the outside world.
A place that is cozy and inviting.

You don't have to have a fancy mansion or the "best of the best" to be happy.
I love making my home be just that! A safe and beautiful place to come to!
I love to use my hands to create things!
I believe that by trying things yourself, you appreciate things more!

I love people.
I love life!
I love learning, discovering, and most of all being happy!
Thanks for taking the time to get to know me!
Hope to see you again soon!

About Katie


 Hi my name is Katie!

Growing up in a large family I never really expressed myself through what my 'space' looked like. 
What Space? :) 
Now that I am a homeowner, wife, and mother, I've found there is a certain satisfaction that comes in making your home a place that is uniquely YOU!!! I absolutely love spending time in my home, surrounded by the ones I love.

I frequently get inspired by magazines/books/shows/blogs/websites and of course my beautiful sisters, and then tweak it to fit my home & personality. Reading, thrifting, finding bargains, singing, couponing, spending time with family, scrapbooking, and creating are some of my favorite things! Being a part of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints greatly enriches my life and makes me want to be the best homemaker/creator/problem solver I can be.

I agree with Antoine de Saint-Exupery when he said "True Happiness comes from the joy of deeds well done, the ZEST of CREATING things new."

My hope is for my home to be a place to INSPIRE and ENRICH the lives of those who enter.

I am equally excited to join my "MUCH OLDER" sisters (tehe) at Drab to Fab!
Thanks for taking the time to get to know me!
