Before & After
Twin Cities Bathroom
I was introduced to this homeowner who was finally ready to tackle a long-desired remodel of three bathrooms. Working together, we finalized every detail—from tile and fixtures to finishes—so her contractor bids would be precise and consistent. When the project wrapped, I asked which design element she loved most. Her response was the best compliment: “I can’t decide. I love it all.”

Before & After
Lakes Condo
When these clients decided to downsize from a spacious 3,000+ square-foot home to a 1,000 square-foot condo, the move happened swiftly. With less than two months before they headed south for the winter, our goal was clear: determine which cherished furniture pieces to keep, identify what new items were needed, and finalize all design selections. Collaborating with a trusted contractor they had used previously, we worked diligently to ensure the project stayed on schedule. In the end, their new condo felt both curated and comfortable, perfectly suited to their streamlined lifestyle.

Before & After
Edina Kitchen
A trusted contractor I’ve partnered with before invited me to refresh this kitchen. The homeowners were happy with the layout but felt ready to move away from the Tuscan style to something lighter and brighter. Our initial plan was to start in May 2020, but after meeting in late December 2019 to discuss their vision, I got to work selecting backsplash tile, Cambria countertops, paint for both cabinets and walls, lighting, and fabric for window treatments and upholstery.
In mid-January, the contractor called to say they could begin in February instead. That shift launched our project into high gear, but once I discovered the perfect fabric for the new Roman shades, everything else effortlessly fell into place. The clients loved the first option I presented, and the remodel finished just before the COVID-19 lockdown began—ideal timing, as both homeowners soon had to work from home. Had the project stayed with the original schedule, construction would have overlapped with the shutdown. Instead, they now enjoy a beautifully updated kitchen that aligns perfectly with their lifestyle.
