Hello, my name is Kathy. I want to welcome you to my website. Living on the west coast of the United States all my life, I love nature. The sea, the beach, the woods, and the wildlife found there, are all very special to me. We love our dogs, cats, chickens and all the squirrels and amazing varieties of birds that hang around our feeders just 2 feet from our dining room windows and all the other wildlife around our ‘little farm’. Feeling good about your home is feeling good about yourself, too!
I love to keeping busy, to work in the garden, and to read. I am always remodeling my circa 1900 arts and crafts-style home. I love building furniture (easy pieces for me, please) and have recently been studying and taking painting classes. With my dear daughter off on her own, I have started a new company called Sapa Dis where I make and sell make organic soap with a Northwest flair. I take care of my sweet Pomeranian/Maltese 4 year old dog, named Bebe; Benne, our lovable Havanese, and Boo, their adorable ‘kid’. By the way, if you love dogs like we do and are looking for interesting dog gifts be sure to visit the Dog Lover Store for a great selection.
I have an elementary education degree and over the last 20 years I have owned and operated a needlecraft shop, antiques store, and garden nursery. Talk about an education. But it’s time now for a less hectic schedule which makes running a website just about perfect!
Please enjoy the things you find here as you explore my website where you will find fresh treasures and the many things I love.
