About Me
My name is Katy Horan. I paint and draw and make things. I also crochet and am planning on learning to play the banjo real soon. I love all things "folky", "spooky" and "crafty". I am originally from Texas, although I now live in Brooklyn, NY. There is more to tell, but I suppose that's what this blog is for...please enjoy!
Radio wire is often used to make bird nests. What station do they listen to?
Well, NPR of course.
