There once was ...

There once was a crazy fifty something year old Guggy named OLIVIA. Who never really liked her name. Growing up she was called "Olive, Oliver, Alavia, and other dreadful things. As she grew up there were those who helped her like her name a little more than before, Olivia Hussey (Romeo and Juliet), and Olivia Newton John to name a few. Then one day while in Barnes and Noble, she headed to her favorite part of the store, the children's section. That is when she discovered "OLIVIA THE PIG". She picked up the book and read the pages, and was hooked. She related quite well with this pig, from her name, to her red shoes. After years, she collected so much OLIVIA memorabilia she needed to do something with it. One day she thought to herself that she must combine the love she had for this little pig with her other great love scrapbooking. She planned and she plotted, she thought and rethought... Then one day with the love and patience of her cute hubby, and her family, her plans came true.

WELCOME INSIDE HER SCRAPBOOK ROOM!


Thanks to Ikea, the color scheme worked perfectly.


She had soooo... much more room to work.


She can watch her fav, HGTV, any time she scraps.


She actually had room for her sewing machine on it's table.

She was so excited to get creative again and make fun things.

She was so grateful for her blessings... and yes, she now likes her name!
