I few years ago my last child went of to college.
I decided to start a blog then.
Weird because I had no clue had to do it.
I just did it!
Oh yes! I was scared to death. Scared to fail but I didn't let that stop me.
The blog has kept me creating ever since which is my love and passion.
I wrote a post about My Craft Room explaining my dream. My art and furniture became Micucci Designs. Micucci is how I sign all my work.I titled it , A Craft Room: A Dream Begins. It became a finalist in the HGTV Shaw floor Contest.
and then it started
Well, I guess that is what has led me here.
I went to Italy a month ago. I am still writing about my adventures there.
Seeing all those magnificent things made me want more.
More meaning I didn't want to stop there. I want to see and do so much.
Getting older makes you think of the things you don't want to miss out on.
I asked myself .............If today was your last, would you be satisfied with what you have done
So I came up with a list
Kinda like a bucket list
I thought back
A dream I have always had was to open a store but as I got older, fear and people changed my mind.
then I read this quote
"You don't get to control the story people tell about you-you only get to control the story you live." -Jon Acuff
Wow! the story you live?
You see, I want to keep writing my story. It is up to me to make it what I want. A lot of hard work and good people around me lifting me up not bringing me down and a supportive family and friends.
When you have all of that .....you can do anything!
So I DID!!
I would like to introduce you to my new store located in Murfreesboro, Tennessee
(Wow did I just type that?)
Please forgive me if you haven't heard from me in a while. I am working on getting it opened.
The charm of this house is what made me stop and look at her.
I have a lot to do but I am taking my time on the inside and stocking slowly.
It will all change in time. But I will be open before Christmas. That is my goal.
This is a new journey in my life. Prayers are needed!!
I will keep blogging and sharing my adventures with you.
Thank you for being here! Your encouragement and friendship makes me a better person.
OH yes! The Name!!!

So exciting! I saw the news first from Tilina just now on Facebook! :) (I have done several barn shows with her!)I am a bit behind on my blog reading, so I hadn't read this! I can't wait to come visit and maybe finally meet you! I've been following you, have seen your stuff in stores and even have a few little things! I am in Smyrna so I'm not so far away! Hope you'll share the exact location soon once it's open (or maybe I missed it!). Happy for you and Tilina joining you! She's a sweetheart! :)

I love the name of your shop, Deneen. It's perfect. I wish you the best. Shops in houses are one of my favorite types because they are so quaint and have lots of character. I know you will do well.
