About

We had this taken two years ago at our house. We host an annual Christmas Eve Feast (old Italian family tradition). This was taken about an hour before the first guests arrived.

For years  I have enjoyed creating a welcome home to fill with our friends and family. We had lots of practice! We moved a lot in the early days but have been in Ellicott City, Maryland sine 2002. In 1992 I began working with Realtors to prepare homes for sale and shortly after that, friends and aquaintances began asking for my decorating advice.

I have a passion for creating a welcoming home. I believe that a welcome home is one that is warm, stylish and practical. It can involve strong color or mild and always has texture. It can be achieved on any budget and it should always be a space that is durable enough to accommodate children, pets and, of course, many guests.
