My Sanctuary at Home

My Sanctuary at Home

So, I have very eclectic tastes, and my room is decorated with all the things I love.

Many of these things I made.

This is definitely my F’ing Happy Place–

Pardon the French, but it’s definitely my F’ing Happy Place

I like shiny shit, and I surround myself with plenty of it. From the beaded chandeliers with mirrored circles dangling from beaded and gemstone wires to the beaded windchimes and fancy plant stakes… I also need a place for my plants to be moved to safely in the cold. You can see I keep the things I love close.
