I’m Franchesca, but most people in real life call me Fran. I love to create stuff, and usually have about 502 unfinished projects swirling around in my head. Maybe more. It’s a problem, I know.

Almost three years ago we lost our firstborn child. It rocked our world to the core, and my faith became something I had to figure out all over again. Life has never been the same without her, but it is beautifully broken. I believe in choosing joy every day. Picking up the pieces and living life, because life is too short not to enjoy. Letting God take it, when it’s just too much. Because I’ve learned He can handle it.

I call this little space on the interweb the beautiful mess she left behind. And I hope you’ll agree. The projects all got started at different times, and for different purposes, but mostly to inspire healing, peace, joy and love.

It means the WORLD to be able to share this big chunk of my heart with you…
