Introduction I am an artist and I live in a very old historic house built in 1895 surrounded by my lush organic gardens including fruits, berries and vegetables. I live with my wonderful husband, also an artist, and my two daughters as well as the animals listed below. I am a fragrance addict and hence, a perfume collector. I also run an etsy shop where I sell my handmade button jewelry, clothespin bags and vintage clothing and collectibles. You can visit my shop at www.stelmadesigns.etsy.com
