Alicia and Nick share a passion for design and a desire to create beautiful
spaces for their family. Growing up, Alicia was influenced by her mother’s
love for design and décor. “I would spend hours rearranging my furniture and
redecorating my bedroom,” she says. Nick likewise has had a lifelong love of
home. In recent years, he’s taken up woodworking and carpentry and has
contributed several handmade pieces to their home. They share their spaces
and projects on their blog, A Burst of Beautiful. “It’s been so wonderful to
combine our passions and work together,” Alicia says.
