Budgeting for Interior Design

In the world of interior design, understanding your design aesthetic is the critical foundation for creating a space that feels like home.

Are you gearing up for a home renovation or building your dream home from scratch? As homeowners, we all yearn for a space that reflects our style, suits our lifestyle, and offers both comfort and functionality.

I am always looking for inspiration. Whether it's for a client, for myself, or just making sure I'm staying ahead of the curve when it comes to home design—I'm always looking.

Selecting the right paint color for a room is a crucial decision that can significantly influence the overall atmosphere and style of your space.

It has been too long, and the reason is I spent most of my summer in Arizona putting the final touches on our home renovation.

Choosing a color scheme for a room can be daunting, especially if you're unsure where to start.

As an interior designer, bringing a client's vision to life can be daunting. One of the biggest challenges is helping clients visualize the end result of a design project.

Last week, I flew out to Arizona to check on our house in Willcox. And you know what I can report? Forward progress. Hooray!

I’ll be the first to admit I don’t have a crystal ball, and I can’t read palms. But, I do study design, analyze trends, and look to other designers for inspiration. With all of that, I’ve put together seven home design trends I believe we’ll see this year and maybe even into next.

As part of a quick refresh of our home, I decided I wanted to wallpaper our dining room. I painted all of the other living areas, but I wanted the dining room to be “a moment.”

I’ve shared that I’m near the end of a refresh of our home. In the process, I’ve had to do some hard thinking when it comes to décor. In the spirit of decluttering, I’ve put together a list of ideas of what to do with unwanted décor.

Is it just me, or are you drawn to the idea of living in a quaint cottage in England or maybe even France?

This is a question I’ve been asked countless times, and I know it’s a question often typed into a search engine. So, let’s talk about it.

After going through the home selling process, many people asked me, “How do you keep your home clean with a toddler at home?”  

It’s been a while since I’ve shared a construction update on our home in Arizona. It doesn’t seem like much, but we have seen some significant changes since I last posted.

Recently, we decided to upgrade our condo to a single-family home. Our condo was so dreamy. We spent most of 2020 doing renovations (who didn’t, right?), so I felt confident it was ready to go on the market as is.

What is transitional style? Quite simply, it’s a design aesthetic that combines traditional and modern elements.

I can still remember the pink curtains that hung in my dorm room.

In March, Joseph, the kids, and I loaded up my car and drove 1,061 miles (one-way!) to get started on our house in Arizona—The Moore House.
