My name is Kelly, and my husband can always pick me out of a crowd because of my big, curly hair. Sometimes I daydream of a solitary life in a garret room, surrounded by faded floral wallpaper, stacks of old books, and creaky wooden floors. In reality, I live in a builder-grade tract house in suburban Southern California, surrounded by my wonderful husband and two wildly enthusiastic children, a boy and girl. The blog serves as my virtual room-of-one's-own, where I escape to dwell on my interests and inspirations. Here are the things that most inspire me:
Writing -- (I have an MFA in Creative Writing) Reading & books Road trips & travel Nesting & decorating Vintage & thrift shopping Loud Music: old, new, cheesy, edgy, glam, sappy, twangy, head-bangin' -- I love it all. The landscape and beauty of my native California
LIFE: Love, family, kids. Dreams, music, literature. Design, décor, memories. Travel. Books, and decorating with books. Welcome to the Reading Nest.
