Description

Full disclosure: this episode is teary. As today marks the fourth anniversary of my mom's passing, I share a bit more history about her role in helping to shape me into a creative, and ultimately, a decorator. The story, however, is not all roses and could be triggering for some to listen to. The story is also honoring as I share some of the creative talents that I was witness to and learned first hand from. 
You'll hear that one of my mom's many talents was as a seamstress and in honor of her today, and in light of today being a quick tip Tuesday, I'm sharing a tutorial for how to sew pillow covers. It's easier than you think and if you can sew a straight line, you'll be brilliant in creating a pillow cover!
