Hi, I'm Krissy.

I'm a 22-yr old Interior Architecture and Design student from Canada. I love party dresses, excessive amounts of snow, eating watermelon and singing at the top of my lunges.

I also love a crap load of other really random things which I will oh-so-conveniently list for you starting… now: ♥ architecture, braids, bunnies, Chanel, classical music, clouds, collages, the colour white, crossword puzzles, doodling, electronica, fairy tales, fashion, ferris wheels, generally cute things, Goldfrapp, illustration, interior design, impressionist art, Kirsten Dunst, LivingEtc magazine, music music and more music, organization, playing piano, pink lemonade, polka dots, reading, shoes, sparkly things, tea cups, watching movies, writing lists, Zooey Deschanel, etc., etc.

The Blog.

In a nut shell, Shimmer Like Gold serves as my inspiration blog. It’s a place where I can share the things that I love and that inspire me on a daily basis with others. I hope that is found here will spark a thought, an idea, a story, a drawing, etc. and help guide others along their own creative process in some way or another.
