Design For Hosting At Home



Lately, I’ve been catching myself thinking, “Where did the time go?!” It’s hard to believe that more than half of 2023 has already come and gone! Summer will be over before we know it and then it's straight back to school, followed closely by family time and hosting guests for the holidays. If you’re planning to make some updates to your home before hosting, keep in mind that the design process takes time. Don't get caught preparing at the last minute! I recommend starting now, so that you have plenty of time to create a thoughtful design for hosting at home.


Working with a professional interior designer is the best (and least stressful!) way to make sure that your home is ready for hosting. Unexpected surprises are bound to come up during the design process, and it can be a huge relief to rely on someone who has seen it all many times before. There’s no shame in asking for help when you need it!

I believe that everyone deserves a polished, personalized space to call their own, and I would love to help you transform your home into a warm and inviting space for you and your guests! My services include:

  • Full-service design

  • Designer for a Day

  • Custom furnishings and window treatments


Through full-service design, you get a little taste of everything: consultations, space planning, color selections, sourcing, visualizations, custom details, and project management. My team and I can handle it all, so that you can focus on all the other tasks that come with the responsibility of hosting. We will make sure that your home meets the needs of your everyday routines, reflects your individual taste, and makes guests feel comfortable, too.


But if you love furniture as much as I do, maybe you want a more hands-on approach! My Designer for a Day service is for you if you just need some advice on space planning or shopping. I know how easy it is to get sucked into an endless search shopping online. These days, it can be tough to estimate a timeline for your design, too. Allow me to guide you with helpful suggestions, so that you don’t have to worry about time delays or spend hours hopping between tabs in your Internet browser to compare a million different dining chairs.


Speaking of dining chairs…they are a must for hosting! There are lots of things to consider when you’re purchasing new ones, such as quality, style, cost, and more. It can be overwhelming! That’s why I’ve taken the guesswork out of the equation with a round-up of my favorite dining chairs. I recommend that you shop the full collection now, so that you will have your chairs in your dining room when you are ready to host. They’re just a few clicks away!




I can also help you create a memorable experience for guests through customized design that tells your unique story. As a trade professional, I have access to a wide range of exclusive products at my fingertips. And if I can’t find what you’re looking for, chances are that I can make it custom just for you. Custom furnishings and window treatments can create a more welcoming environment for a bedroom when you are hosting overnight guests.


The end of the year is coming up much faster than you think, so don’t wait to ask for help! Hosting comes with a long enough to-do list already, and you definitely don’t need the additional stress of accepting chair deliveries as your guests are arriving for dinner. A professional interior designer can guide you seamlessly through the process of curating a design for hosting at home.
