I love design, all kinds of design.
I enjoy combining different types of design to create things from the ground up or I like to change already existing things into something beautiful.
Most of the projects I work on include some sort of design.
I was a designer at Cricut©.
These are a few of the projects I created for Cricut© Design Space.

I was part of the team that worked on the team for the museum project for Vita Mix Corp.©
We completely rebuilt & restored the original office buildings and the homestead to their original glory.
We turned them into a couple of lovely museums.
We made a design plan, hunted down 1950’s vintage items, and helped stage the museum.

I sewed the curtains to match the original 1950’s curtains.
There were a few items that we could not find an exact match of, such as the curtains.
So I sewed the curtains myself & designed and recreated some other items for the project.

I help recreate other items for the project.
For example, we wanted to recreate the fabric that was in the kid’s room below, (it was a special request from the President of Vita Mix©).
I re-created the fabric digitally, we had it printed, & I sewed it into curtains.

We recreated the the very first infomercial set for the corporate museum
Vita Mix© actually created the first infomercial ever so, we rebuilt the original set for photos.
This is a photo from the original set.

I also created fabric & another set of curtains for the set.
I created a digital floral border, made it into fabric, & sewed it into the matching curtains.

I designed the Family Library
It’s located on the upper level of the residence. It’s private. We wanted it to feel comfortable & modern but blend with the feeling of the 1950’s styled museum.
