Free Weekly Kit by Featured Designer: Karen Schulz

 

Let’s welcome Karen Schulz as this week’s Featured Designer!

Q&A With The Designer: Karen Schulz


Where do you call home?

I live with my husband and 2 dogs in a tiny, rural community by the name of Coarsegold, California. It is about 30 miles south of Yosemite National Park. We moved here 10 years ago from Southern California, where I had lived all of my life. I had always wanted to live in the country, so this was the perfect move for us.


Your favorite toy as a child was?

This will probably sound very strange, but my favorite toy was an oval, flat red rock. I suppose I loved it because of its color and texture. It wasn't really a toy, of course, but it was something that I think of when I think back to "favorites." My mom thought it was "just" a rock and threw it away, and I still remember feeling devastated that I didn't have that rock any longer.


Tell us about something on your bucket list!

Traveling to Africa is on my Bucket List. My husband and I are lucky enough to be able to travel quite a bit, but I'm not sure we'll even be able to make it to Africa.  There are several reasons for that: political unrest, the cost of the trip the way we would want to make it... I guess those 2 are enough. 


What was your favorite subject in school?

My favorite subject in school was Algebra.  I loved it because it was like a puzzle. I was in advanced math classes for years, until I was in a class where our teacher put us through 4 years of math in one year. I got so far behind that I lost all interest in math, and lost my desire to be a teacher too. 


Do you collect anything?

The only thing I collect is things I purchase at Thrift stores to use in DIY projects. I don't like to have other collections of things, like salt shakers, figurines, or other types of things, because they are just things I would have to dust. :)


To finish off we would love to share some of Karen’s favorite layouts:

Layout from Rise and Shine
