Welcome to Parisienne Farmgirl
From Brontë to Boondocks, I’m as pragmatic as I am fanciful. As farmy as I am fashionable. One side of my being has been nurtured with glamour and an upscale aesthetic, while the other side grew in desperate love for open fields and the feeling of soil in my hands. My family, preference for femininity, and a love for times gone by makes me who I am. I am ‘Parisienne Farmgirl,’ and I’m delighted that you’re here.

“This is the bit where I tell you about myself…”
As I understand it, this is the bit where I tell you about myself, however, were we over bubbly or an espresso, I’d much rather talk about you, but you’re there, and I’m here, and apparently, it’s my turn.
My name is Angela, and I suppose I’m what you would call an ‘old soul.’ I’ve been “who I am” since I was a little one (aside from a few dreadful moments in high school, of course).
My childhood hero was the Princess of Wales (and if you stick around long enough, you’ll hear the story a few times of how I met her.)

Three Easy Design Questions to Ask Yourself
Where there is a will, there is a way. Adapt and overcome. Don't take no for an answer. A quick cozy photo I grabbed early this morning. Dirty floors and all, friends. Though I fear I exhaust the people around me, these are the mantras that drive me each day. I don't...
My Love for an Overused Word
Spring is in the air. Sort of. By that, I mean there is a fresh blanket of snow here in Door County, but I've got my snapdragon seeds started (my signature Potomac Appleblossoms), and it's supposed to be 45 degrees here today so bring on the MUD! I swear, I'm...
