Hello! I’m Elizabeth Klebart.

—also known as Miss K to my students.

I’m just a homeschooling (single) mom-turned-teacher, unintentional minimalist, and multi-passionate creative based in Austin, TX.

Welcome to my little home on the internet!

As a Special Ed teacher-by-day and an artist-by-night, I create cozy, minimalist hand-drawn illustrations. My illustrations are designed to simplify your life and add a touch of charm and whimsy to all of your creative projects. My artwork is inspired by the beauty of everyday life, organic shapes, inviting spaces, and simple objects that often go unnoticed.

💡 On the blog, I share tips for Cozy & Creative Living (and Teaching) on a Budget. Perfect for teachers and moms who want to simplify, save money, and create more freedom, both inside and outside the classroom. Whether you’re redesigning your space, refreshing your routines, or building passive income streams, I’m here to help you find the beauty and potential in what you already have.

My superpower? Seeing the potential in every situation, space, and forgotten treasure. From repurposing common items to DIY projects that breathe new life into your home or classroom, I’ll help you reimagine your surroundings without breaking the bank.

🎨 As an artist and educator, I’m passionate about using my creativity to solve everyday problems in simple, sustainable ways, whether through illustration, space redesign, or creating thoughtful resources that work in real life.

💡 My mission?
To build a life of freedom through my creativity and show other teachers, moms (especially single moms), and creatives that you can redesign your life, classroom, and income…one creative step at a time.

So grab your art supplies (or a cup of tea!) and let’s create a life of freedom together.
❤️, Elizabeth
