Meet Melissa
"Welcome!
Thank you for taking the time to explore my website.
I believe when your home reflects who you are and how you live, it adds immeasurable value to your life. Helping people to solve the design dilemmas that prevent them from being truly comfortable in their own homes is a privilege and a joy I feel I was born to do.
My love for art and design began in early childhood. I grew up in a modest house, by a single mother who is what I call the original “DIY-er.” I have many fond memories of watching her busy at work reinventing our home will all sorts of creative and budget-friendly ideas. Whenever I had a birthday that represented a new stage in life, my mother would gift me a full bedroom redesign, complete with that “HGTV type” reveal. I can still remember the excitement I felt as I saw each transformation. I learned early that design isn’t intrinsically pricey and that imagination and daring doesn’t cost a thing!
Most importantly, I learned the value of living well in the space that you’re in- right now.
After over 20 years of creating spaces for myself, my family, friends, and friends of friends, I have learned more than a few tricks along the way to making a home a beautiful reflection of the people that live in it. I am happy to share these tips and tricks with you so that you can experience the joy of living in a home that speaks to your heart. One thing I know for sure…design trends come and go but what remains constant is the need for comfort and the natural desire to make a home as welcoming and soothing as it is beautiful.
Whenever I tackle a new design project, I jump in enthusiastically because I know I’m helping someone love where they live.
Are you looking to make some changes in your space?
I would love to have a conversation with you to hear a bit more about your project and share with you the details of how I can help."
