About Me
My name is Jessica but you can call me Jessi or Jess if you prefer!
Wife. Mother. Designer. Keeper of chickens, turkeys & an old house. A few favorite things : Autumn. Winter. Coffee. Old Books & Photos. Fireplaces. Cotton & Linen. Antiques. Ribbons. Nature.
'The Curio Pantry' is what I design under. If you are not familiar with my designs they are a bit eclectic, mostly elegant & vintage inspired designs with a little cuteness here and there. I dabble with hand drawing so at times you may see some of that worked into kits.

tealDescription
Photo taken by one of my boys, probably my oldest, while we were visiting the Stones River National Battlefield. I have an ancestor buried in the Civil War cemetery there. We went there on the due date anniversary of my baby boy who was born sleeping in 2009. So the tone is a touch sad and serious.

For the photo I used Gatsby's Wet Plate collection to create the old daguerreotype look. My hubby got the photo actions for me awhile back and I LOVE the whole collection! For the layout I used items from PS Apr 2016 Life in Full Bloom kits & Sharon's PS Jun 2017 Nature Escape kit. Most are still available even!
