Welcome!

Hello!
Welcome to A Charmed Wife, my new blog about my charmed life.
Here's what you should know about me: I'm a do-it-yourselfer from a long line of do-it-yourselfers who don't have any particular skills or qualifications and just like to try things. As a result, I've learned how to do a lot of things pretty well (and not much masterfully). But that's how I like it- I think life is more fun when you have at least a dozen challenging projects going at once, and my goal is to always be learning something new.
Last year I got married, bought an apartment, and jumped off the corporate ladder to try my hand a freelancing (I honestly hadn't made it that far up the rungs anyway), which has given me a plethora of new things to try, from carpentry and sewing curtains to the fine art of the hustle and, well, blogging. I'm probably the last 27-year-old housewife in Manhattan (at least the only one I know), and I love all things homemaker, from cooking and throwing parties, to discovering new cleaning products that actually work. I hope you'll enjoy reading about my adventures as much as I enjoy living them. Cheers!
