Born and raised a New Yorker, but now happy to call the fairytale city of San Francisco home with her husband and son, Liz blogs daily about beautiful things and creations over at Say Yes when she's not digging for treasures at local thrift stores, working on a new craft, or picnicing in Golden Gate Park. On the weekends, she loves to spend time with her outdoors enthusiast family, traveling and backpacking through the West's mountains and deserts.
