ABOUT ME
Hi, I’m Tanya!
PINCH ME! I’m serious, someone please pinch me. I can’t believe after years of dreaming… I now have my own website. And if this is a dream, please don’t let me wake up. I fell in love with blogs when I was planning my wedding back in 2011. I would check the blogs daily, soaking up every jaw-dropping photo. After our wedding, I became obsessed with home blogs and entertaining blogs and food blogs. When I got pregnant with our daughter you can imagine I found every baby focused blog out there.
Finally starting my own allows me a place to share my love of home, my passion for entertaining, and my love language of gift giving… wrapping it up in one beautiful package with silk ribbon and a pink peony on top (because I am a girl that loves a detail)!
In 2017, my husband and I built our dream home. At that same time I created an Instagram account to document the process, and that account is @ourshoreview. With the building of our home, I hand selected every single design element, but even prior to building our house I was consumed with everything home.
In addition to blogs, I literally spent all of my free time pouring over design books and design accounts on social media dreaming of decorating my home and any others I could get my hands on.
I’ve been fortunate that my account on Instagram has opened many doors for me. I had people reaching out to me to do design work for them, a local TV show featured me, my home, and my Instagram account. I’ve also been featured in the feeds of @magnolia, @inspiredbythis, and @smpliving to name a few. Retailers from clothing to candles were using my home as a backdrop for their photo shoots. A new career in design was born!
While I still love to consume content on Instagram, my own account took a backseat to my new design journey and life with an active now pre-teen. But I still had this strong desire to share in detail what I’ve been working on whether it was a home office design, a backyard soiree, or a get well soon gift. Welcome to Our Shore View. I hope you find it inspiring, entertaining, and beautiful.
