Welcome to summer and June. This month we have TWO fabulous designers in our spotlight and they have both been gracious enough to answer our questions.

First up is CathyK Designs. Let’s see what she had to say.

What is your favorite “go-to” color palette?

I like bright and happy colors. And blues and greens. And navy – I’d put some version of navy in every palette if I could, LOL!

What is your favorite treat to have close while designing?

Coffee with hazelnut creamer

Do you have job outside of designing? If so, what do you do (if you don’t mind sharing)?

Whatever came pre-selected on it when I got it.

If you were deserted on an island (with all water/food provided), what three things would you want to have with you?

My husband and 2 sons.

If you could spend the day with anyone (living or dead) who would it be and why?

I’d like to spend the day with my great-grandmother. I remember as a small child sitting with her, stringing beads, and listening to her tell stories about her life growing up. I really wish I could remember the actual stories – I was so young then.

I’d love to travel to Italy.

If you could spend the day with anyone (living or dead) who would it be and why?

My parents – I’d make sure they got to see their grandchildren all grown up and meet all of their sweet great-grandchildren. I’d also want them to see how happy I am!
