Community Connection and Consulting Services

Have a blank wall or a cool item you want to showcase?  There are a lot of easy inexpensive ways to decorate any space.  I have a unique talent for repurposing items for decoration.  I can help with overall design for a room/house/wall. No project too small, show me your ideas and I can help make them come to life.

I am one connection in a web of people and organizations that help move usable items intended for the landfill to organizations and individuals in the community. I have made connections with several businesses and organizations throughout Central Oregon. If you have items to donate or need certain items, you can check out RE-CO in Bend and make a request. I rescue all types of art supplies and recycle crayons of any shape and size.

Are you a teacher? Do you need more art in your lessons, classroom, life?  I have years of experience planning art lessons for toddlers, preschool, elementary, middle and high school integrating science, history math and most school subjects.       I also enjoy making bulletin boards.         I have an Ellison machine Sizzix. I can teach you how to create and teach the art project to your students.  I have a B.F.A. in Art Education and Crafts and a B.S. in Psychology from Longwood University.    I taught art in the public school system in VA and was a licensed Art teacher at the Elementary and Middle levels.

Are you new to gardening, have recently  moved into a new home or are new to Central Oregon? 

I have several types of garden beds and have converted most of my lawn to food or flowers. I can help recommend native plants, seeds, plan your garden/beds and help with water needs, pest solutions and invasive weeds. 

Are you struggling with understanding all the different Recycling options here in Deschutes County? Do you need practical solutions to storing recycling in your kitchen/house? I have many clever ideas for home storage we can customize to your home.

Sometimes you just need a helper/cheerleader to motivate you to organize that one room, bathroom, garage, attic or help organizing a new home, or new addition to your home, people or rooms or beginning to work from home.  Sometimes there are too many emotions to sort and organize items that belonged to loved ones. I help sort items, remove and properly recycle/dispose household items, clothing, toys, books, etc.  One room, bathroom, living room, whole house, garage, attic, the stuff you don't want to do, just leave it to me!
