It's Official....My Design Business is back on its feet
and apparently....running at full speed.
The problem is - so is my Real Estate firm. So, this is
going to be interesting.
I just ordered my new business cards and registered
my name..."Interior Re-Define."
Basically, I will be re-Designing, and Refining rooms using the
"Use What You Have" theory.
I think the reason I am getting so many calls, in many ways,
is because of the economy. People are re-examining
their budgets, and instead of buying new - they are hiring
a designer to redseign their rooms/homes using the
possessions they already have.
The fun part for me...and my one request? I ask for total
autonomy to go "Home Shopping" within the home.
So far, I have had carte blanche. (woot woot)
The above room, a Family Room, was created using ZERO Dollars and was accomplished in about 2.5 hours.
The rug is an outdoor rug from her enclosed sun room...
she loves it used here!
The fireplace created the biggest obstacle, as this is a
rental home and the owner did not want her damaging
the brick to add any hangers, etc...so I improvised with tall
mirrors and metal artwork.
My client said this is her favorite new area...
We are going to go shopping for a new sofa table to place
behind the loveseat....but that's for another time.
So? How do you like my $0.00 design?
Later this week...I will share my Brother's River House
which I helped design about six months ago.
Sending everyone warm thoughts from the Icy South....Barb
Re-designed

WOW!!! If your ever in San Antontio, I could really use your help.
Beautiful job! You seem to be one busy lady that's for certain. We do have a few things in common: my husband is also a retired military man, and we really love to decorate.

Beautiful job! I'm sure that the homeowners can't wait for you to do more! And, congrats, too!
Love it! Just wanted to say that I found your blog via the article in Country Woman magazine where your kitchen was featured. I fell in love with your kitchen (red is one of my fav colors!) and will be using it as my inspiration when my hubby and I start our kitchen reno later this year. You do awesome work!
Hugs,
Donna
