At age fifteen I began working in a fabric and custom upholstered furniture store. I quickly fell in love with fabrics and most of my designs since have been inspired by fabric selection. My interior design experience took me to a large retailer in Charleston were I worked with clients to build entire room and home designs. I also enjoyed store displays and window displays.
I have worked at commercial and residential design firms where I had the opportunity to work on a large high end corporate project that convinced me I should consider working for myself. In 2004 I decided it was time to work on my own and open my own residential design firm. I've always wanted to have a furniture show room, I decided in 2020 as my business was growing to expand and make my dreams a reality. I began searching for the perfect space and found it amongst other artists and creatives on Carlisle St.

I have had a lifelong interest in interior design. My career began in fashion retail, high-end gifts, then home decor. In 1984, I partnered with two friends and opened a gift and home decor shop. My career evolved and I began working in fabric and furniture sales. I then managed Rogers Brothers Fabrics in Columbia, then GDC Home in West Ashley. When my daughter and I discussed teaming up and opening a showroom on Carlisle St., I was delighted to join her.
The aspects of my role that I truly enjoy are selecting fabrics for custom pillows, designing window treatments, sourcing the handmade decor items, and working with local artists. I love seeing our clients excited about making their home beautiful.
