Before you book.

That time is completely yours. Come with a list of questions, walk me through one room or your whole house, ask me to help rework a space, or rapid fire every design question you have been saving. We can talk layout, scale, what to keep or get rid of, what isn't working, renovation ideas, or simply what would you do here.

For in-home consultations we can also get hands on. I may move furniture, try a rug in another room, reposition art, or work with what you already own so you can actually see a space differently before I leave. The more photos, inspiration and questions you send beforehand, the more of our time we can spend digging in rather than figuring out your style from scratch.

One important distinction: the consultation ends when our time together ends. It does not include sourcing, shopping links, mood boards, or design work afterward. If we uncover something you want me to take further, I will recommend the package that fits.

Yes. Virtual consultations work much like in-home ones: the time is yours to use however it is most helpful. Walk me through your home on video, show me problem areas, or come prepared with a list of questions and we will move through them one by one.

Sending photos, measurements and inspiration beforehand is especially helpful virtually. And just like an in-home consultation, any sourcing, selections, mood boards or additional design work afterward would fall under a separate design package.

Yes, throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The in-home consultation rate includes travel within 30 miles of my home base. Farther than that is still possible, it just needs a conversation first about timing and a travel fee.

A virtual consultation is $200 for one hour. An in-home consultation is $300 for one hour, including travel within 30 miles.

Consultations are meant to be an approachable way to get professional eyes on your home without committing to a larger design package. If you decide you want more hands-on help afterward, I will recommend the package that best fits what we uncovered together.

Design package pricing depends on the number of rooms and how much layout work is involved, so those are quoted per project rather than listed here.

As much as we can fit into our time together. Some people want to spend the whole hour reworking one room. Others come with a running list and want to cover as much of the house as possible. We can troubleshoot layouts, talk through renovation decisions, compare options you are already considering, figure out scale and placement, or answer everything from does this tile work with this one to what would you do with this entire room.

The more prepared you come, the more we will accomplish. A list of questions, photos, measurements and inspiration help make every minute count.

Consultations are best for direction and decision making rather than sourcing from scratch. If you want me to find the exact tile, wallpaper, paint colors, furniture, lighting or hardware for you, that is where a design package makes more sense.

That is completely fine, and honestly that is part of the fun. Send me inspiration photos of anything you are drawn to, even if you cannot explain why you like it. I can usually start seeing the common thread pretty quickly.

Once I understand what you are drawn to and how you want your home to feel, I can help you filter decisions through that. Sometimes that means saying I know you like that photo, but I don't actually think that piece feels like you. My goal is not to give your style a perfect label. It is to help you recognize it well enough that your home starts feeling cohesive and like you.

Please do. This is actually one of my favorite things to do. I don't think a better room automatically means buying more things. Sometimes the piece a room needs is already sitting in another room of your house.

During an in-home consultation I can help you decide what stays, what moves, what could be sold or donated, and what is actually worth buying. I am very comfortable pulling art from one room, trying a rug somewhere unexpected, moving furniture around, or finding a completely different use for something you already own. If you are open to me being candid about what isn't working, even better.

Yes. Space planning is one of my favorite parts of design because it feels like solving a puzzle. I love figuring out how rooms should connect, where a house is wasting space, and how the floor plan can work better for the people actually living there.

That might mean opening a kitchen to the living space, finding room for a mudroom or pantry, rethinking an awkward walkway, creating a smaller functional nook, or simply figuring out the best furniture layout in an existing room. I care a lot about homes working well for real family life, not just looking beautiful.

Absolutely, and there are different levels of how far we can take it. Sometimes a room needs architectural character through trim, wallpaper, paint, lighting, hardware, or a small tile moment. Other times the budget or season of life calls for changes that don't require hiring anyone at all.

We can also create a huge shift through paint, art, textiles, furniture, vintage pieces, and what you already own. You don't have to renovate an entire house at once to make it feel layered, personal and intentional.

Not at all. My job isn't to make your house look like mine, it's to figure out what you love and make it feel cohesive. Send me anything you're drawn to, even if the inspiration feels all over the place to you. I can usually see the common thread pretty quickly and turn it into a clear direction for your home.

From there, I can help keep you on track as you make decisions, including telling you when something you're considering doesn't really fit the style we're building toward.

Yes, and it comes up in almost every consultation. I have done a lot of it myself, so I have a fairly honest sense of what is worth your Saturday and what is worth paying someone to get right the first time.

Ha. I get asked this more than you would think. My DIY projects are a huge part of how I have learned design and how I keep adding character to my own home, but I don't offer construction or DIY labor as a service.

I am happy to help you dream it up, figure out what would look best, and give you direction. You will just need someone else holding the drill.
