During our time together, we’ll dive into whatever you need most. Whether that’s refining room layouts, dialing in materials, choosing paint + finishes, planning lighting, building your palette… whatever will move your project forward. These sessions are always so fun to do and shockingly productive.

A little greenery goes a long way and the right garland goes even farther... I’m not decorating this year, but putting this together reminded me how much joy the little things bring.

If Christmas snuck up on you (same), this is your sign: you don’t need a full makeover to make your home feel festive. A strand of good garland, a ribbon moment, and a few twinkly lights.

Comment ‘HOLIDAY’ and I’ll send over our favorite garlands, plus the prettiest bows + ribbons to finish the look!

In my 40s, I was a stay-at-home mom, my husband had lost his job, and we were having to sell the home we’d poured our hearts into.

Over the years, I’d designed and renovated our own spaces, even worked with an architect on our most ambitious project yet, and helped friends here and there. But never thought it could be my career.

Then our realtor asked, “Who designed this?” When I said it was me, she said: “Allison… why aren’t you doing this for a living?”

I didn’t have a degree or a portfolio… just grit, a dream I didn’t know I was holding, and three kids watching me start over. So I took the leap and launched Allison Clouser Interiors.

That leap became Clouz Houz—projects across the country, virtual clients, offering full-service work in Oregon and (now!) middle Tennessee.

Somehow, along the way, our work started getting noticed. A gift I still don’t take for granted.

If you’re at the edge of something scary, know this: you’re never too old, too late, or too far behind.

You can start fresh.
You can build the life you’ve dreamed of.
You can surprise yourself.
