If you know me, then you know I have a huge soft spot for the desert. I love to travel out West and be surrounded by the red clay hues, cacti and Joshua Trees. This is where I go to get grounded, to hit the reset button and get my creative batteries recharged. Since I may not be able to visit the desert anytime soon; I was so happy that between myself and some really amazing creative vendors, we were able to bring the desert vibes to KCMO.
