Hey there - I'm the artist behind

blue happy living

and i'm so glad you're here!

Blue Happy Living is the story of my journey from unhealthy and unhappy to restored and renewed. I was overweight and artistically unfulfilled. 

In the last few years, I have lost 150+ lbs and started a small business. It’s been quite the journey! 

Here on my blog, you’ll find honest stories about my weight loss, inspirational words about overcoming obstacles, and detailed project reveals. 

Many of the furniture and home decor pieces I redesign have been abandoned and left in the trash pile. I find so much joy in taking the discarded and making it beautiful once again. 

Take a look around, then go see my work in person at one of my shops:

Shop Locally

Shop my one-of-a-kind pieces at Doc Holliday’s Emporium in Wylie, Texas or at Cameron’s Trading Co, Junky Monkey, and Boho Buffalo in Waco, Texas. 

Check the blog for DIY tips and tricks each week. Pick up some Chalk Country Paint at my store in Wylie and start a project yourself.
