aloha! i’m liana. this is my site. welcome!

i was born and raised in hawai’i.

my hands and feet are always cold.
i finally own my first second third pair of boots {a big deal for a hawaiian}.
i am a pisces.
yup, i’m a dreamer.
i love dogs. love.
i used to take hula lessons.
now i just like to turn the music up and dance around my apartment.
it makes me happy and i just laugh at myself.
i love the 80′s.
i want to travel more.
i enjoy taking pictures.
but never like any photograph of myself.
i like dresses but almost never wear them.
i love handmade things.
and i appreciate the talent behind them.
that’s why mixed plate exists…

i am not a professional writer.
i pretty much just write the way i talk.
i love meeting new online friends and introducing amazing artists.
my wish is to inspire and entertain you.

ps – i look forward to getting to know you.

the fine print…

the features on mixed plate are not paid-for reviews (unless it is clearly stated as a sponsor). they simply are my way of sharing and promoting small business folks.

if you have a favorite website or blog, think something is great or unique and would like to see it on mixed plate or are a designer, feel free to email me at liana@mixedplateblog.com. i cannot guarantee that every suggestion will be featured, however i will try my best to do so. i like to post about things that are unique, handmade and fun. all items must be of high quality along with clean and clear photos that i post with each feature.
