Mural art on a brick wall saying 'Greetings from Tucson' with colorful illustrations inside the letters, including a cactus, a blue skull, a woman, a maze, and a skeleton.

Welcome to Making Tucson Home

I came to Tucson for the sunshine, mountains, and a slower pace of life, and quickly discovered a city full of character and surprises. This site is where I share what I’ve learned about neighborhoods, lifestyle, and everyday desert living.

You’ll also find the things I make here, including leather goods and other handmade pieces, plus where to see them at local maker fairs.

Thanks for visiting,
Perry
