Welcome! First blog post!

Welcome to Popeko! (pronounced po.peek.o) So, where did the name come from? My Great Grandmother's maiden Lithuanian name was Popeko before she immigrating to America. I never met her. What I know of her, I know through others' memories. She was an expert seamstress, a swish dresser, and loved her six grandchildren to no end. I come from a very creative family. This blog displays my creative ventures, musings, thrifting adventures and art. Let me know what you think! My motto: "Don't look at the world the way you are supposed to, look for what it can be and not what it is."
