Parkes Phoenix

Our Gal

April 12, 2017 By editor


Karen Creith

How long have you lived in Parkes and what do you like about living here?
I have lived in Parkes basically my whole life and love the friendly people and size of our community. It isn’t too big or too small so I feel we have the best of both worlds.

Where do you work and what do you enjoy most about your work?
I work at Parkes Furniture One as a stylist and I am the author of two home decorating books. I love my job as I get to work with wonderful people, plus I get to help them bring their home decorating dreams to life. I also work with my hubby every day and we have a great time together!

What do you do to unwind after work and on weekends?
I love to stay home and relax. I like to cook and am very partial to the odd Netflix binge session.

What are you really good at?
I am really good at eating and I love food! If there is a great meal being planned I get quite ex- cited!!

What is your pet hate?
Terrible coffee!

If you could have a super power, what would it be?
I think I would like to fly because it would make it so much easier to walk around in my stilettos each day!

Tell us about your best holiday ever.
My best holidays have always been around the kids and I love the times we spent on the Gold Coast being kids for the day at the fun parks or at the beach. Sometimes I wish I could go back to those days again just to enjoy them all over again!
