Joy Kelley
Hola! My name is Joy and I blog over at www.howjoyful.com. I am a Chilean designer that moved from my home country to the California mountains two years ago. I love sewing, crafting, upcycling, drafting and creating new things all the time. My blog reflects that and all the things I love to share.
I created my blog as a way to document the things I was making but along the way I realized how much I love to share my inspiration with others. Now, my main goal is to inspire others to try new techniques and create something new.
This year my husband and I became homeowners and are expecting our first baby. So on top of the normal projects, I have a lot of remodeling and baby projects and tutorials ahead of me! If you'd like to take a look come visit my blog, I always have projects and tutorials to share.
