About Me
Welcome! I’m so happy you’re here!
I started this blog in 2014, after watching ‘Julie & Julia’ one night. I sat on my bed and in passionate Julie fashion, looked at my husband and proclaimed, “I have thoughts TOO!”
That night we came up with the name for this blog: Camellias & Copper.
Camellias comes from my maternal grandfather. When I was a little girl running barefoot down the dirt roads around his house, there was a beautiful and somewhat mysterious garden close to his home. My brother and I would play hide and seek behind the massive bushes covered with enormous pink blooms. As a young adult I learned that those beloved bushes were Camellias, and made it my own personal mission to have at least one Camellia at any home I ever owned.
At the time I started this blog my husband and I had toyed with the idea of flipping houses. It was sort of a far-fetched dream at the time, and I loved the look of copper…both in its new and shiny state, as well as the aged blue and green beauty it would become when exposed to the elements.
By marrying the past and the future, garden and home, Camellias & Copper was born.
