Well hello there.
My name is Abbey Strickland, and I am the owner of Scripted With Grace! I have had a few people ask me if I had ever thought about starting a blog, so here I am. Sitting in front of my lap top. Thinking of ideas to entertain my (few) readers. To be honest, I have had an attempt at a blog in the past, but it epically failed, SO, here's my next shot at winning the hearts of you blog-reading folks. Just a little bit about me: I am a newly wed! My husband, Bryson, and I were married on a perfect fall day October 21, 2017. We now own our own home (that we pretty much completely renovated) in McDonough, Georgia just south of Atlanta, where we both grew up. Fun fact: My husband and I attended the same high school, but we didn't really know each other. He was closer to my brothers and mother before he even uttered a single word to me! Bryson and I have the most perfect Pomapoo pup in the WHOLE wide world, and his name is Tater (Tate or Tate-Tate for short). If you know me, you know I have quite a few hobbies that keep me constantly going. First off, I have a full time office job in North Atlanta that keeps me away from home for about 12 hours on week days (I know, the struggle is so real). I also have my business I run on the side - Scripted With Grace (a.k.a. the blog you're reading right now is directly correlated to my business - woot woot). I truly have a love for designing home decor pieces that are simple yet different in their own way. I free-hand paint all of my work without using stencils or vinyl, so each letter and word is similar, yet unique to each piece I create! To go along with my business, I also have a love for home decor. When I have a vision in mind, I will shop my askabootle off at Home Goods, TJ Maxx, Hobby Lobby, etc. over a few months until I have collected all the necessary pieces that will make my space homey and welcoming. And honey, you better believe I don't buy anything full price. I am a BARGAIN SHOPPER (plus, my husband would not be too happy with me if I ought everyhing at full price). Aside from my full time job, running my business, spending time with my family and friends, and decorating our home, I do have a passion for singing as well. I grew up singing at my church and in school, and now I help lead worship at the same church I grew up in! So as you can tell, I have my hands full, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Please feel free to follow along as I share with you Home Decor tips, photos from my own home and life, and new creations I've been working on among other things.
