Haeley Giambalvo
Hi! I'm Haeley Giambalvo of Design Improvised, a blog dedicated to simple projects that make a big impact. Almost all the home decor and holiday crafts on my blog can be completed in under an hour and for under $20. As the mom of two preschoolers (Stella, age 5 and Hazel, age 3), I only have small chunks of time for crafting so I like to keep things simple. I particularly love celebrating the holidays with little DIY touches throughout our home starting with a pretty handmade wreath for each holiday on the front door. You can also find my online projects on Martha Stewart, Better Homes and Gardens, Good Housekeeping, and Reader’s Digest, among others. I live in San Antonio, TX with my husband and two daughters.
