About Me

Hello & welcome to my internet space!

I’m Tiff & I’m so glad you’re here!

I’m a huge fan of exclamation points, taking too many pictures, & home decor!

I started On The Creek in 2015 as a way to document our home renovation journey!  We bought a foreclosure in need of tons of repairs.  It was a true fixer-upper & we completely renovated it from top to bottom!  It was quite the adventure & I wouldn’t have it any other way!  We’re currently enjoying making this house our own until the next project comes along!

Some more facts about me…

- I’m a thirtysomething (!!)!  I have no idea how that happened but I’m embracing it!

- I live in a super small town in Ohio.  I grew up here & I’ll probably stay here forever!  Haha!

- I’ve been married for almost 12 years!  My husband, James, is also from our small town but we didn’t really connect until we were in our late teens/early twenties.  He’s a little older than me, so while we always knew of each other, we didn’t really know each other until we got together in 2006!

- I grew up on a hobby farm!  While I loved it, I haven’t carried on having livestock in my own life!  We currently have just 2 cats & 2 dogs!

- I started gardening about 3 years ago & I love it!  It has its ups & downs, but I really like seeing what grows every year!

-I’m a huge bargain/thrift shopper.  If I had to guess, I’d say 95% of our home is thrifted!  I love finding things & making them my own!

- In March 2019, we began our journey into becoming foster parents!  It’s something we’ve always talked about & are now making it a reality!  I’ll share more when we become officially licensed, which should be around December 2019!

I hope you enjoy your stay at my little blog & connect with me on social media!
