I love seeing a plan come together. From refinishing the existing hardwoods, removing the track lighting, and refinishing all the walls ceiling and Custom built-ins. This great room is now filled with life and beautiful fixtures and furnishings with performance fabrics and lots of texture.

Delightful details are what I include in each and every project. Pick up Lake Norman Currents Mag October issue and read about how I did so with two primary bathrooms. Both are colorful, filled with personality and special details…

I’ve had the pleasure of working with some amazing clients this year and the beauty of that is most of them were referrals. Transforming homes and lives is how I’ve built my business, but the connections I’ve made are what created a business I love. Doing what you love and making a difference is what life is all about!

This space we wanted the view to be the focal point so we kept it simple with the most perfect furnishings.

It’s a relaxing place to start and end the weekend!

Starting the fall season with this beautiful bathroom transformation. We removed everything and started from scratch…

Custom cabintry in a soft blush pink with gorgeous marble countertops, and unique backsplash. We enlarge the shower and added detailed molding. We removed the tub and added a bench and Custom cat box. We used a long brick shaped white tile in a herringbone pattern on the floor and played with a different pattern in the shower then added a beautiful mosaic on the floor. It’s topped off with a tropical Wallpaper, simple mirrors, and sconces.

It’s now an oasis that my clients get to enjoy each day. This truly reflects their personality.
