Making a new house feel like home!

Sometimes I am asked to assist a client when they have purchased a new home and are just needing some design ideas & suggestions. This was a fun request! Helping this client put up their existing artwork – and making their new house feel a little more homey!



Plenty of artwork to hang throughout the house, but where? Happy I could help!



After – photo hung in dining room.



Three pieces of artwork look great hanging in the hall!

Clients were given additional suggestions & ideas & as time & personal budget allows, they will continue to make their lovely new house a wonderful new home!


In Door Sauna

While staging this home, client informed me of their in door sauna. While this is quite unique in a home, I knew we had to do something special to this room – emphasize the sauna and the appeal to potential buyers! Here’s the result!



While the nursery was really cute, we thought potential buyers would like to see this room re-imagined as a “spa like” space & emphasize the uniqueness of an in door sauna in the home!





A few photos while renovating our 1973 home

We moved to the Pacific Northwest and immediately started renovating a home that was built in 1973. Here are a few of the before and after pictures! Lots of hard work!!! As time allows, I’ll try to post more of our “renovation”. It’s crazy to look back at these photos & see how far we’ve come!

Whenever I’m stressed, I head to the kitchen. Let’s just say lots and lots of cookies have been made here!!!

I love my kitchen & love spending time here with family & friends, making lots of yummy treats for them!
