What it’s all about
Leslie Karen is a blog dedicated to women who are forever curious, passionate and don’t believe in limits. I love DIY’ing and trying to figure out how to do things, traveling, designing interiors, finding good restaurants, fashion and reading. Basically just about anything creative and artistic. I spent all of my adult years in the finance/marketing world professionally (except for two stints in the nightclub and restaurant business), but always loved the creative arts.
I want women to feel their most beautiful, creative, passionate, adventurous and self-loved. Leslie Karen is all about showing women how they can re-imagine their lives.
I get so excited interacting with creative and artistic people. Curiosity may have killed the cat, but it’s never failed anybody. Each week I will take you with me as I explore all things. I invite you along on this exciting journey with me and we’ll figure it out together.
We will explore Creative Design together:
-
Creatively Design your Home
-
Creatively Design your Work
-
Creatively Design your Relationship
-
Creatively Design your Life
Fun Facts
- I looooove Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups but only after they’ve been refrigerated.
- My first car was an orange Volkswagen Beetle with a broken gas gauge and I only ran out of gas once…haha
- My favorite artist of all time is Prince…..do not challenge me on this!
- I prefer mountains/lakes over beaches/oceans
- Ever since I was a little girl I’ve had a corn cob phobia so I always cut my corn off the cob.
I am based in Atlanta, GA and live in a fixer-upper with my rescue pit mix dog, Domi, who I’m obsessed with.
Designer & Diy’er pumped up on caffeine and willing to create anything. I want to let women know they can do it and if they don’t want to, I will.
