Hi! I'm Dawn Jacobsen. Welcome! I’m so glad you found me!

Fashion, beauty, interior design and lifestyle are my interest. The last twenty years as a real estate broker and interior designer have kept me busy. I share my life and projects with my readers and viewers - in the form of blog posts, diary-style videos called Vlogs, and video reviews.

My Maltese is named “Baby.” She keeps me company when my three children are not around. I find that my passion for real estate and interior design keeps me engaged from one project to the next.
