Welcome!
Thanks for viewing my site. I am so happy you are here!
My life has revolved around interior design and being creative. I have a design degree and love everything creative. I am not a high-end interior designer, never have been and never will be. Yes, I like nice things but did not come with a silver spoon in my mouth and have had to work hard for what I have. That is why I have developed Combine and Create – Stylish Home Ideas on a Budget, which I am passionate about.
As a lifelong Michigander, I love the water and have a cottage in Pentwater MI which is on Lake Michigan. It is a beautiful village community that that is busy with vacationers in the summer and very quiet in the winter. I feel very blessed to be a part of this lakeside community.
My significant other is a handsome software guy and my two very cute sons are both in collage. One is at MSU School of Law and the other is at UofM in computer engineering. They are both great guys. And I would say that even if I was not their mother!
Please join me on a weekly adventure to add interest to your home. I love helping people pull it all together to create a polished home that they love. There are so many stylish and innovative items out there for your home. Every week I will be sharing new ideas from things I have found or transformed. Guaranteed the ideas will be budget friendly, cute, trendy, classy, fun and cool!
If this all sounds interesting to you, please sign up for my weekly tips on the home page and I will make sure you stay informed on great home ideas that are budget friendly.
All the best,
Diane
