A week ago I announced the opening of the bigger Blue Happy store within Doc Holliday’s Emporium. We are official full of so many new creative items. I so enjoyed filling it up. Well Greg loaded it up, hauled it into Doc’s, put it where I pointed and me I just placed all the little things around. Pretty sure I have worn him out this week. If you haven’t come by the store to see the new digs this next...

When I found this Dresser It was plan and simply with a sturdy build. I bought it at rustybydesignauction.com my favorite place to shop. I felt a connection to it and when I picked it up I knew instantly what my design would be. It was clear what direction I wanted to go and my creativity was fired up about it. This dresser is also a first. I restored it in honor of someone who was dear to me. I...

If you have wood or Ikea type furniture that is mix and match of what family and friends have given you it’s not a problem....

In just a few short days summer for me is over for me. I will be returning to my classroom to teach my 12th year at Wylie Prep. I can’t believe my plan to teach 2 years is now 10 years past that goal. I do miss my kids and all the art I get to see process from their creative little minds.

I’m so tired, excited and a bit overwhelmed with the next big move for Blue Happy. I’ve been hard at work these past few weeks getting ready for this week.

Meet LaTonya

I am a creative with a vintage soul and a happy heart. Just as I set out with a new purpose to restore my life 5 years ago, I try to find the beauty in beaten up and forgotten pieces for the home.
