I'm Olive Gleeson, but I go by Olive or Liv for short. I'm a 30-year-old woman with a passion for all things DIY and crafting. You can find me on my blog, where I share my favorite creative home decor ideas and boho-chic inspiration.

Growing up in Scandinavia, I was always drawn to the artsy side of life. My parents were both artists, so I guess you could say it's in my blood! I spent most of my childhood playing with paint, glue, and fabric scraps, trying to create all sorts of wacky projects.

After high school, I decided to pursue a career in art and design. I studied graphic design for a few years before realizing that I wanted to focus more on the crafting aspect of things. So, I started building my own blog from scratch, sharing tips and tricks on how to make your home look like a real-life Pinterest board.

Today, my blog is one of the most popular DIY and crafts blogs out there! I'm super grateful for all the amazing support I've received over the years. And when I'm not busy creating new content or responding to comments from my lovely readers, you can find me at home with my own little crafting space (which is basically just a converted garage with plenty of natural light).

One thing that sets me apart from other crafty folks out there? My unique sense of style! *laughs* I love experimenting with different textures and patterns – nothing gets me going like pairing neon-colored leggings with distressed denim shorts or rocking a full-face paint job for a night out.

Speaking of which, what brings you here today? Are you a fellow DIY enthusiast looking to share some projects or get inspired by others' creations? Or maybe you just stumbled upon my blog and want to chat about the latest home decor trends? Whatever it is – I'm all ears! What's on your mind?
