Hi Facebook,

I've been quite on this page for some time now.

After leaving my marriage and being thrown into full time mom and school teacher due to Covid, I had to step away for this part of my life.

My priorities quickly shifted as I was focusing on my own healing and growth, while helping my kids transition and adjust into our new life as a party of three.

I started diving deeper into my spiritual journey and got certified in yoga, hypnotherapy and other spiritual modalities.

I've since been doing lots of traveling, teaching yoga, helping men and women heal from trauma, hosting retreats and special events and dabbling in writing poetry.

It's been a wild ride.

I am thrilled to be back to my first love of design after partnering with on our next design collaboration. Drew and I have an effortless creative groove and it's been a joy working alongside him for almost a year now. Our partnership has truly been a highlight to my design career so far and we've been dreaming up and co-creating a spectacular mid century home together.

I can't wait to share inspirations and processes as this project unfolds and progresses.

I'm in the midst of a rebranding or rebirth who I am as a designer and how I want to show up in this community. Thank you for bearing witness and joining me in that process.

I look forward to sharing all the beautiful things!

It feels good to be back,
Colleen

How much do you love this kitchen in Tuscany Italy? Big time crush on this green marble! The architect has chosen to weave this beautiful emerald green throughout this project.

This redesign is by Milan based architect and designer Vincenzo De Cotiis of De Cotiss Architects.

Check out this whole home... it's incredible!

Hi Facebook,

It’s been one year since I’ve posted on this Facebook platform! I’m still practicing design but my career took a turn as a result of my marriage ending and the Covid Pandemic.
•
In the past year, I have spent lots of time, resources and energy doing my own inner personal work. This work has resulted in big changes in career and a new life’s calling. After getting certified in Hatha Yoga, I got certified in Transpersonal and Trauma focused hypnotherapy. I had such a tremendous personal transformation as a result of experiencing hypnotherapy that I knew it was something I wanted to share with others.
•
In June of this year, I launched my retreat business where my business partner, Liz Burkholder (with ) and I work with women doing inner child work. In January, we will be hosting our third retreat and have participants coming all the way from California to attend. Our goal is to have 6 retreats in 2022 and ultimately see 1,000 women in red dresses. This work with women has become a new passion of mine and ultimately my souls calling.
•
I will always love the art of design and know that our home environment is essential to our own personal wellbeing. Our home is our sanctuary, our refuge from this crazy experience called life. I look forward to continuing to offer my clients spaces that are design with the intention of creating a personal sanctuary.
•
I do have some fun new things I will be offering in design this year and I look forward to sharing them with you in 2022.
•
May your holidays be filled with joy, happiness, laughter, cherished experiences and fond memories.
•
From my crew to yours, Happy Holidays!
Colleen, Finn and Eden

I know I’ve been quiet on this platform but all is well in my little world. This year has definitely thrown me for a loop, as I am sure it has done the same for most of you. I’m slowly getting into a groove and finding balance with my many hats - mom, teacher, designer, yogi and healer. I am very much doing design work and despite Covid, this has been one of best years of my career. I’m in the process of wrapping up a few kitchens and have several new clients and projects going in to 2021. I am so grateful for each of my clients and the opportunity they have given me to create the “home” that is just right for them. It truly is an honor and I thank you. My holiday wish for each of you is that your days are filled with love, laughter and all things that spark joy in your heart. Happy Holidays from my crew to yours.

One thing that happened for me in June was I completed my 200 hour teacher training in Integrated Hatha Yoga. I am beyond grateful to announce that my website is live and I will be teaching every Saturday morning starting this week. Bring your mat and spend an hour with me outside as we connect with our inner selves and the present moment. This is a slow flow class which means the pace is more meditative, emphasizing peace and calm in the body and mind. We will do fewer poses than a traditional flow glass. We will hold poses longer and take several rounds of breath in each pose. This class is for all levels and a great introduction for people who have never experienced the practice of yoga. Due to the current state of the economy, this a “pay what you can class,” because I want anyone and everyone to come. Class starts at 9am at I’ll see you the mat. (Please follow along for all the fun things I have in store). Namaste 🧘🏼‍♀️🙏🏻❤️💫 📷 credit @ Charlotte, North Carolina

I wanted to update everyone on my Face Friends venture. We’ve ran into a couple of hiccups and have made some changes. This is to be expected when an idea is birthed in 6 days during a worldwide pandemic. We are excited to be able to provide a fun, useful and necessary product for our community!

Covid-19 has forced this designer and single mom to adapt and last Tuesday, at 3am, “Face Friends” was born. When looking for masks for my own children, I was coming up short. I spent the next 5 days, designing a logo, selecting fabrics, picking a mask design and meeting with my workroom.

I named this company “Face Friends” because if these become part of our reality going forward, I want them to be something kids embrace and every child wants a friend. I encourage parents and/or caregivers to have their children name their masks and make the idea of wearing a mask fun!

Face Friends come in 8 modern graphic prints and three different sizes. Size Small (5-1/2” wide, suggested ages 2-5) Size Medium (6-1/2” wide, suggested ages 6-9) Size Large (7” wide, suggested ages 10-12). These reusable masks are made of 100% cotton and washable on the delicate cycle. Each mask comes with a pocket where an adult can insert a coffee filter for further protection, if desired. All masks are made to order and will be done within 7 to 10 business days from date of purchase. Each mask is priced at $25. These are custom pieces and there are no refunds or exchanges.

To order mask please email [email protected] with your fabric option(s) and size(s) desired. Once FF receives your email, you will get an order confirmation and a Zelle link within 24 hours of the receipt of your email. Once we receive payment, you will receive an email with an estimated time of completion. FF offers a contact free pick up near uptown Charlotte. At this time FF does not ship masks.

Our masks are not a replacement for medical grade protective masks and the decision to use this mask is solely your own.

Hi IG!! 👋🏻 I hope everyone is healthy, staying home and finding some sense of routine and joy during this crazy time. We’ve been a little hectic over here. I had to move me and the kids early before the shelter went in to place, three weeks earlier than planned. It’s been a whirlwind but I’m enjoying setting up my new sacred space. Here’s a peak of my powder room. I love my new Romo wallpaper, lucite towel bar and my African headdress. What home improvements are you making during this time?
