Design in Real Life
One thing I love to do is shop. It is part of my job, a hobby, a favorite pastime, an adventure of sorts. I have always been drawn to little out of the way shops that carry unique items, or antiques, or even better–a mix of both! Before I was married, I’d head out to St. Jacobs, or Burlington or …
