Hello! My name is Courtney. I'm a teacher with an Etsy shop. I like small dogs, making lists, collecting vintage photos, making jewelry, experimenting with graphic design, and reading books. My blog allows me to do many of the things I love including writing, curating, and photographing the world around me. It documents a little slice of my life and keeps me connected to people I'm not able to see everyday.
