hello!
My name is Ashley. I am a wife to the world’s most patient and supportive woman and a mom to two boys who bring the perfect amount of chaos.
I started Nothing In This House Is Straight because I’ve found that letting myself be creative is the best way to outrun anxiety—and honestly, my stress looks great as a half thought-out weekend project that I’ll hopefully finish before Christmas.
I’m all about creating with minimal tools, but protecting my mental wellness with everything I’ve got.
Thank you for joining me!
