-Also known as Miss K to my students.

Welcome to my little home on the internet!

As a teacher-by-day and artist-by-night, I create cozy, imperfect, hand-drawn illustrations and paper products for all of your personal, classroom, or small business needs.

Whether you’re looking to save money creatively through realistic home and classroom thrifting and DIYs, or make money using my illustration assets for your own business branding, social media graphics, or physical and digital product creation, you are in the right place.

On the blog and YouTube, I share my journey to personal and financial freedom and the creative ways that I’m making and saving money, both inside and outside the classroom. From building an illustration business while teaching full-time, to DIYing and thrifting a beautiful home and classroom, I’m here to show you how to live a cozy and creative life on a teacher’s budget.

How We Work & Create Together:

Save Money Creatively: Explore realistic tips on thrifting, DIYing, and budget-friendly home & classroom organization to make your space feel cozy and warm on a a budget.

Make Money With Illustration: Access hand-drawn, cozy illustrations designed to help you launch or elevate your own business or creative project. Whether you need custom branding, cozy social media assets, or clip art to create and sell your own physical and digital products, I’ve got you covered.

I’m on a mission to help overwhelmed, under-resourced moms and educators build a beautiful life on your own terms, without breaking the bank. If you look at your schedule and budget and think “I don’t have room for this”, you’re in the right place. Let’s create freedom together!
