About

Hi there and welcome to LiveOriginally! I’m Katie, a 20 something married gal living in [mostly] sunny San Diego. I’m a Kansas City (Missouri, thank you very much, not Kansas) native, recovering wedding addict.

I started LiveOriginally for a few reasons. I love to blog, but left my wedding blog behind after wanting to write about the many other things that excite me! Secondly, I have been a lover of crafts, homemaking, and general design inspiration ever since I can remember – why not share such great things with the blogosphere? Lastly, I wanted a place to share my thoughts, projects, and general findings that help me to live a happy, creative, and original life. :)

Hello Darling Katie, loving the blog! You may have to guide your auntie through it though, never looked/read/wandered through a blog – but I’m enjoying yours!!
Love from Aunt Cheryl

Hi Katie!
I stumbled upon this via facebook and I just have to say- love it! You most definitely are one of the most creative people I know, and have been that way ever since I can remember as well :) I look forward to reading about your fun projects/adventures on here. I hope all is well in sunny San Diego!
