Bio

I love to decorate and because I am young and poor, decorate on a budget. I constantly scours garage sales, flea markets, and garage sales looking for deals. Even my husband’s grandma calls me the “Queen of Bargains” and grandma hasn’t bought anything over $19.99 since coupons started coming with perforated edges. I currently live in an 82-year-old house that my husband and I are renovating. My husband was born during the great depression (of 1983) and is therefore the cheapest 25-year-old. Ever. He can also fix anything or die trying and has impeccable taste. In order to finance my unseemly home obsession, I am a writer and editor. Her work has appeared in Guidepost, The Contemporary Reader, the Des Moines Register, the Cedar Rapids Gazette, the Iowa City Press-Citizen and more.
