Katie Bee Creative bio picture

Welcome to my Blog!

My name is Katie Watson and I live in Southern California.  I'm married to a Navy Pilot so we have traveled the country coast to coast calling many different states our home. I am a Mom to 3 children and 2 cats. I am on the Design Team for Maya Road which I Love, Love, Love!! I love vintage anything and everything...I would rather rummage then organize and am just plain happy when I'm doing some form of art! I love mini books and altered projects and would describe my style as shabby chic mixed with thrift store randomness.

Don’t even ask…………I am not the only decorator in the house……:)

Merry Christmas to you all!!  I hope that your Christmas is filled with family, laughter and joy!
Love,  Katie

We have been really pacing ourselves this summer.  For a few reasons….One of them is that my hip hurts really bad all...

Just catching up a bit…… Photo heavy…

  Do you think there will ever be a day that everything that has to be done, will be done?  Just one day where my “to do” list isn’t a mile long…seriously? 
  We are still unpacking…although slower now as regular every day life is taking up most of our time…like cooking, yard work, errands, kids...

This gave me chills….in a freaky but good way!

So grab your cup of coffee, make yourself comfortable…..this may end up being a long post.  We’ll see how long it takes me to explain it.
So, as a lot of you know…we lost my 19 year old brother-in-law, Ian,  to a drunk driver last summer.  It is still so heavy on all our hearts, as you can well...

Oh my….a whirlwind week…and it’s not over yet….

So, I swear…I cannot remember a busier week, I also cannot remember a more exciting week.  We ended up repainting most of the house…the former owner was a smoker, the kind that if she was awake, she had a Virginia Slim in her hand.  She is older and not of the generation that doesn’t smoke inside our home,...

// Gosh, I have so many scrappy projects to share with you…but this is just going to be a short blog post.
First of all, Vegas was great….I got to see so many of my relatives….with relatively no family drama.  My aunt Musetta and her family were such a great support to Derek and I...
