You can check out the 2020-21 Creative Team here.

To celebrate the team and help you get as excited as we are, we’re sharing their bios and photos as well as links to follow them across their social media.

Carrie from Ideas for the Home by Kenarry®

Last, but not least, there’s me, Carrie Ypma (pronounced EEpma, in case you’ve been wondering)! I’m the chief writer, crafter and cook here at Ideas for the Home by Kenarry. My husband, Kent and I started Kenarry in 2013 as a way to create and curate ideas that are useful for home and family life. I enjoy sharing recipes, trying new craft ideas, planning for parties and events as well as organizing and decorating. When I’m not blogging, preparing meals or picking up around the house, you’re bound to find me hidden away in a castle under the stairs reading or playing games with my two young boys. 

In addition to Ideas for the Home by Kenarry, Kent and I also own and operate two other small business ventures: Clutter Keeper for home organization tips and products and Sunshine Villa at Glenbrook Resort, a short term vacation rental home near Walt Disney World in Orlando.
