hey, i'm Rose!

residing in the heart of cottage country with my husband and two boys. My journey? An evolution from writing legal decisions to picking paint colour palettes, guided by my passion for style and an analytical eye.

Now, if you've ever felt the weight of overwhelming choices that come with decorating and designing your space, if the mere thought of making a decision leaves you in a cycle of “analysis-paralysis,” if you’re terrified of making the wrong decision and wasting money, then you are in the right place!

Why? Because I've been there myself!

Back in 2005, while juggling my role as an adjudicator, my husband and I had this idea—let's add a few hundred more decisions to my plate. Yep, we decided to build our own custom home in Kawartha Lakes.

hi there

It turned out to be the most beautiful Colonial-style home in which we proudly raised our two boys. But if I’m being honest. The decisions and timelines during that project? They had the potential to push us to the brink! Honestly, it was a lot.

Thankfully, my training for analysis and research came in handy. I discovered a formula, a practical approach that transformed decision overwhelm into confidence, paving the way for beautiful and timeless decorating choices.

And, thanks to our family's hardware and home improvement business, complete with a paint department, that confidence has continued to grow over the years, backed by hands-on experience

So whether you’re redecorating your space or embarking on a new custom home project, I can help! My mission is simple: empower you with confidence, provide tips and a strategy, and make the entire process empowering and enjoyable.

And as our family embarks on our newest adventure, designing and building our dream home on the lake, let me use this to inspire you to make your space an authentic reflection of your style and story!
Let’s get started. Your dream home is just a confident decision away!
