About Me

The purpose of this blog is to:

1.) Have fun 
(Keep a lookout for my monthly FESS UPS!)

2.) Stir those creative juices in YOU.

3.) Inspire both of us to do more projects and keep in touch with the latest design trends.

Welcome! 

So glad you've stopped by my blog :-)  

I'm Selina, an interior designer by degree, artist by heart, and classical musician by years of practicing!  I am married to a wonderful structural engineer and have three children (right now ages 14, 12 and 8). 

My daughter would want me to add we have a GoldenDoodle dog Duke, a Cock-a-Mutt puppy Echo and a pet mouse Cutie (oops, come to find out, mice don't live long) ;-)

How this all started - Carpe Diem!

A few years ago I was questioned by a press woman regarding a design challenge I won. 

She asked, "Do you have a website?" I had to respond, "Well, ummmm no, I don't have anything!" 

How am I suppose to "seize the day" without embracing this world of technology? 

So here begins my Blog, Pinterest and Facebook page "Creative Juices for Decor". 

I plan to showcase my work as a designer and American Clay applicator with a little LOT of miscellaneous thrown in there so that the next time I get asked if I have a link to some of my work I can say well YES, in fact I do.

If you are interested in advertising/working with me please see my Work With Me page.






THANK YOU to my wonderful readers -
without you, I wouldn't be blogging. 
(links added to the projects they are referring too - check them out!)

Zenana has left a new comment on your post "Fess Up Friday- My Real Life": 

I just stumbled upon your blog, and added you to my Google reader before I finished the first page! (I'm reading from the beginning now.)  You are witty, creative and a girl after my own decorating heart! Thank you so much for writing. I'm looking forward to getting "caught up" and can't wait to see what you're up to next.

Dear Selina,

I just couldn't NOT thank you for your fabulous map-art project (for your son’s room) – it’s wonderful!!! I'm on a tight budget these days & looking for an inexpensive (and large!) art piece for my son’s new room as well. Your idea has been truly inspiring. Thank you!!! So glad I found your blog on my late night internet ramble.

Sincerely,

Meg

Hi!

I love your blog. I have spent all morning (and a little more) reading almost every one of your posts. You have a great imagination and so much talent. I'm a new follower. I have a thing for thrifted lamps too. I think my favorite of your posts is the one about the very large canvas turned capiz shell and mirrored piece you hung over your bed. It was stunning. Love your stuff!! And congratulations on your new home. It's beautiful and your American Clay walls and ceilings turned out beautifully. I know you are tired but isn't it so worth it? 

Thanks for sharing it with us,
