Hello and welcome to my very first blog post on my very first website for my very first business. The ideas and excitement mixed with the uncertainty and the many butterflies might turn up a very jumbled blog, but let’s give it a go! My name is Jennifer Thompson, I’m a 5th generation Tucsonan, who has a passion for interior design, sports, dogs and Tucson! I have been in the interior design industry since before graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree from Northern Arizona University in 2007. However, I’ve been designing spaces even longer. As I child I can remember “designing” my bedroom in the middle of the night. It would be 1 am and I would be moving my furniture all around. Strong kid, I know! I think my bed had been on every single wall in different directions by the time I left for college. I also enjoyed spending time with my mom going to various antique shops and finding the unicorn items. My favorite find was always the old glass jars and vases in different colors. They are still my favorite find today and I have a collection sitting atop our kitchen cabinets. It’s usually the first thing people ask about when coming into our house because they are quite striking and eye catching. My journey to finally biting the bullet and starting my own business was really sparked by a semi-dare from a mentor and fellow designer who said, “I’m not sure you are ready, in the right place to be able to start your own business.” If you know anything about me you know that I was initially very hurt by this statement, but being the Type A personality that I have always been I eventually got over it and instead of sulking and admitting defeat I did the opposite. So here we are today with me writing my very first blog. 2018 is starting out great for me. There are A LOT of changes I’m trying to work through, but I’m enjoying every second of it! I’m excited for you to be part of my journey.
