Today I spent the day helping Lizzie and Mkayel style another gorgeous house they designed. It was lovely, busy, fun, creative and bittersweet as it marks the end of my 7 year tenure home staging & styling at Tumbleweed & Dandelion.
7 years ago when she hired me to help out in the staging business, I was a lost soul freshly traumatized and just returned to LA and didn’t know what was next. I had no idea the road of discovery I was headed down.
Learning about design, how to style and stage homes and realizing this is the industry I belong in has been an incredible experience. Growing as a designer here I truly was taught by one of the best and I am so grateful. All of the many many MANY projects we have done together and all the ones I led on my own. All the Good times, challenging times even rough times - it all happened to bring me to where I am today. Loving interior design and learning more about it every single day.
As I embark on the next chapter of my career - a career I have officially stayed in longer than any one of my past lives - I am so grateful to who helped me get here.
I may have been raised by an incredibly talented designer, but I was raised up by another one and will be forever grateful. ❤️
Thank you Lizzie for everything. ❤️
I can’t wait to see what the next chapter for both of us holds and I will always have your back.
