About Decor Made Simple

Let me introduce ourselves, I'm Dianna and my husband is Greg, we live in Northeastern Ohio. We have also lived in Florida on two separate occasions, once on the west coast and the second time on the east coast.

We always seem to find our way back to our roots in Ohio. Who knows, we may get restless and miss having sand between our toes and end up in the south again.

My hobby is painting art in most mediums, oil, water, acrylic, pencil and ink, preferably on different materials other than canvas. My other hobby is recycling and transforming discarded furniture into unique workable pieces.

We didn't realize it at the time, but Greg and I have been contributing to mother earth and have been Green for a number of years. We have a lot of stuff that we have rescued and recycled into some pretty cool art and furniture pieces.

My career has been in the food and beverage industry. I've just about done it all from owning and operating a restaurant with Greg to being a Catering Director, Banquet Manager, Food and Beverage Manager, and just about everything in between!

I've planned and put on my share of weddings and any other type of event from birthdays to bar and bat mitzvahs.

As much passion as I have for art and being creative, everyday life gets in the way and I find little time for the things I like to do.

I have sold my paintings and commissioned art work, but I didn't like it. It wasn't my hobby anymore, and took the fun out of it for me.

Decor Made Simple is the perfect way for me to be creative with different projects and share my ideas and discoveries with everyone.

My goal is to develop this site into a home decorating neighborhood filled with tips, tricks and ideas from not only me but contributions from my neighbors.

Decor Made Simple also gives Greg and I a chance to team up and work on projects together. He has the knack for finding unique stuff at flea markets, garage sales, junk and antique stores and I have fun transforming his finds.

Greg is also a chef, so we like cooking together and sharing our favorite recipes. We have been cooking up some good eats, taking pictures and putting them on this site.

You'll find Decor Made Simple will be a family affair with our grandkids, Skylar, Jadyn and Nate doing a little creating of their own with tips, tricks and ideas to share.

Oh.......did I forget to mention, I like to dance too!
