9 years ago, I was a stay-at-home mom, and suddenly the future felt wide open after this life-changing event.
If you’re new here, you might not know much about the other half of Clouz Houz...
Derrick (my husband). He used to show up on here more, but these days he prefers being behind the scenes. He’s the hands-on one, deep in renovations, and every once in a while he’ll pop in to teach a lesson or share a bit of the work.
Long before Clouz Houz existed, Derrick and I were always renovating our own homes because making something old feel fresh again was what we loved most. I started helping friends with their homes as a hobby, and after we moved, that uncertainty slowly turned into clarity.
Fast forward to today: Derrick and I built Clouz Houz together, getting back to our roots-flipping homes, investing in properties, restoring character, and creating spaces meant to be lived in. This little peek at our Sixth Street Bungalow feels like a full-circle moment... proof that sometimes not knowing what you’re going to do next is exactly how something meaningful begins.❤️
Decision fatigue is real.
Designer for a Day is a focused design working session for when you’re stuck—on paint, wallpaper, layout, finishes, furniture, or all of it.
Two 3-hour sessions.
Your home. Your questions.
Clear answers and a plan to move forward.
This isn’t full-service design or a done-for-you project.
It’s professional guidance so you can finally decide and move on.
If you’re ready to stop circling the same choices, inquire via the link in bio!
Perfectionist designer problems... It’s never about the outlet, it’s about peace of mind!
This was a client project we had so much fun bringing to life!
And with spring right around the corner, we’re officially shifting into outdoor mode over here.
This week, we’re talking all things outdoor spaces. How to get yours ready in time for the season, simple upgrades that make a big impact, and even sharing updates on our own exterior plans (fence, patio, garden... all of it.
If you’ve been staring at your backyard thinking “we need to do something out here...” this is your sign.
Stay tuned for this week’s blogs!
