Opportunity and Optimism.
Hello, I’m Robin, and welcome to my creative haven! This blog and vlog are where I share my journey of blending art, craftsmanship, and self-sufficiency. I’m passionate about building, gardening, food making, and crafting, and I love sharing all the skills and projects that bring me joy.
In the garden, I specialize in growing thriving plants in the desert climate right in my own backyard. From desert-adapted plants to sustainable gardening practices, I’m always experimenting with new ways to cultivate life in the arid landscape.
When it comes to building, I’m all about home renovation, carpentry, and restoring the old into something new. Whether it's fixing broken furniture, working with epoxy, or tackling a full renovation project, I take pride in creating functional and beautiful spaces with my own hands.
In the kitchen, I dive into everything from baking homemade sourdough bread to crafting herbal tinctures, gummies, and savory sauces. I also love preserving seasonal harvests by canning, bringing the flavors of the seasons into my home year-round.
Alongside all of that, I create art and custom stickers, blending visual and sculpture pieces to add a bit of personality to everyday life. This space is a celebration of creativity, sustainability, and the joy of making something with your own hands. I hope to inspire you to join me in building, growing, cooking, and creating something truly unique.
