Hi!
I've had a lovely time reading your profiles and getting to know some of the members on here, so I thought I'd join in with the fun. I'm from up north and while I still live up north, about an hour or so from where I was born, my husband actually comes from Essex. In a past life I used to be a nanny which is something people sometimes find a bit surprising as I don't have children of my own. I do however have three fantastic stepchildren and although they live all the way in Essex, we see them regularly and they all have their own rooms at our house.
Like a lot of you on here, I do like travel but haven't been to as many countries as I would have liked, although I did spend some time living in America. I also like art, crafts, and design especially interior design, and since moving into our home five years ago, I've had an absolutely smashing time doing it up. There's still a lot more to do as I keep changing things up but it's a real passion of mine so I enjoy being kept busy with something I love.
Hi Green - Essex girl here! Haha! And I also have a connection with America as I moved out here around three years ago. Give my love to my home county! x
Hugs to you, Green! 🤗🤗
Hello Green!
I have to say I share a lot of your interests and since moving into our 'forever home' I've been really big on interior design. I don't mind admitting that my Emma Bridgewater display takes pride of place in our home. I just hope my kids will never knock anything over!
Hello to you Green Diamante!
I'm no interior designer (I'm a landscape gardener!) but I've recently been doing up our new home, and I have to say I've enjoyed the process and putting our stamp on the place. It helps being a landscaper because there's lots of principles that I was able to apply. There's lots of design and creativity involved so I was definitely in my element!
Welcome to PT!
Hey Green!
I absolutely love arts and crafts. I actually have my own business selling my own craft work. I really do enjoy it and I can get lost when I'm creating something. I think I'm about as passionate about arts and crafts as you are about interior design. I'm sure your place looks amazing.
Hello Green Diamante!
I also enjoy reading these introductions from new members and finding out more about the people who make up the Peppermint Teal community. Welcome! x
Hey Green Diamonte!
I've actually just replied to the message you sent me for my post. Haha! So now I'm just returning the favor. 😊
It's cool that you lived in America and that you visited other countries. I have to say I've never left America. Traveled around a few states but no overseas trip yet. I wouldn't have a problem with it though.
Hi Green Diamante!
Do you mind if I call you Green for short? If so, you can call me Jane! haha.
I hear you. I'm also having fun reading people's profiles and getting to know more about the users of this site. And I'm finding a lively and eclectic crowd on here. Awesome! I need to do a little introduction for myself at some point soon!
Good to see you on here, Green Diamante. I hope you enjoyed your time out here in the States. I'm originally from Montana but home is now Washington state. I've only ever been to England once - London. But I hope to visit again soon.
