My love of Fashion and Interior Design developed at a young age. I have been grinding away at this for over 15 years now and must be doing OK for myself cuz I have been afforded the opportunities to showcase my work on several design shows such as ‘Take This House And Sell It!’, ‘Rooms That Rock’, ‘Design Interns’, ‘Disaster D.I.Y.’, ‘Movie Style’ and most recently ‘Divine Design’.
Some of my stuff has also been in Home Décor magazines like ‘House and Home’ and ‘Style At Home’ with an actual 3 page interview in ‘Sew News Magazine’ where I revealed that I sew in my underwear while listening to loud music. Me and my big mouth.
I fell into sewing by accident to be honest, I had these old dining room chairs that were way too 80’s looking for me so decided to slip cover them. I had a sewing machine in storage that I had received probably 10 years prior to this but had never used. So I got it out, dusted it off and whipped up some slip covers. For some reason it was easy and I really actually enjoyed doing it.
So from there I forced my friends to let me make curtains and other fabricy things for their places free of charge. Some looked wicked and some…..meh…would rather not ever see those again.
One of these friends just happened to need an on camera sewer for a television pilot called ‘Designed to Sell’ which later changed its title to ‘Take This House And Sell It!’ and it all just snowballed from there. Don’t get me wrong, it was frickin hard work and lots of hair pulling, but I wouldn’t change it for anything. But I wouldn’t do it again either. LOL
If I am not in front of the camera or sewing machine, I love riding my motorcycle, watching obscene amounts of T.V., Tattoos and spending time with my daughter, Bryce, who is starting to share her Dad’s love for sewing. *giggle*
Don’t let my gruff, ruff and tumble exterior fool you, I may be covered in tattoos and facial hair but my sense of style is very fresh, clean and modern with a touch of Rock n’ Roll and sparkle for that perfect bit of edge and flair. And I smell good too. *wink*
