Welcome to my portfolio!
It's all in the (party) details! I enjoy the little details that make everyday life special.
I'm Amanda, a Hoosier at heart with all things preppy, pretty, and Southern on my mind. I currently live in Lafayette, Indiana with my husband, our daughter, and our cat, Maggie. I work in higher education. I previously had a design based Etsy shop, Amanda Condra Designs, where I created invitations, party printables, and custom designs for clients for a decade. Becoming a mother, advancing in my career, and holding key positions within membership organizations led me to close the shop. Over the years I have been able to work with clients for weddings, home decor prints, logos, and conference program ads. I truly enjoy working with a variety of individuals with diverse needs!
I love to travel and explore. You can find some of my recommendations and adventures over on my blog. My favorite place in the world is Charleston, South Carolina. The Holy City just calls to my heart and it's never too soon for a return visit in my opinion. On top of traveling, my husband and I find so much joy in going to concerts. Our general mindset is that if you get the opportunity to see your favorite because they are near, take it! You never know when your favorite artists will no longer be around to go see! We also love exploring our town and finding hidden gems in others. I created my personal blog in 2010 as a way to share my life with friends and family but it soon turned into an outlet for sharing, not only my everyday life, but also things I love -- whether it is a favorite style trend, a new recipe, a tutorial for a DIY project, or a party inspiration.
I'm a Lilly lover, have a passion for traveling, and love a well planned party. I love all things that allow me to use my creativity.
One of my favorite quotes is "the universe is made of stories, not atoms" by Muriel Rukeyser. We all have a story to tell and this is part of mine.
