About Me
Just over 2 years ago we decided to take a leap of faith—telling ourselves “no risk, no reward!” I had started this little business in my home and we were at a point where we could barely walk around our house and garage because this little refinishing business had exploded into a whole new animal. I had reached a place where I couldn’t keep up with the demand and after months and countless (and I mean countless!) hours of hunting, I had found some of the perfect partners to begin making exactly what I was looking to bring to market for my little group of customers. Our foyer was so full of consoles we could barely get upstairs and our garage was bursting. We were at a crossroads and I knew that I had some decisions to make—we were either going to scale up and see where we could take this- or for the sake of my family’s sanity, I was going to have to scale down.
I agonized. We agonized. We searched for commercial properties and at several points I was paralyzed with the fear of “what if it doesn’t work?” Both my husband and I are no strangers to hard work or taking risks and so we looked at each other and said “you can’t win if you don’t play the game!” We jumped in and signed a lease for our first 1800 square feet in Rosenberg and invested what felt like an impossible amount of money to get this off the ground. The rest, as they say...is history!
As we are closing out our first full year, we often sit with our hearts overflowing with gratitude at this incredible community. In just over a year, we’ve grown to almost 7,000 square feet of showroom and warehouse space, built a team with several great employees, partnered with some amazing other small businesses that now work with us as part of our machine, and now, with my husband also full time with me, we know it’s only because you guys have embraced our ideas and supported us through our growth. You’ve been patient with us these last two years as we continue to learn as we go, and so many of you have encouraged us every step of the way! In return, we hope that we’ve been able to provide you with gorgeous pieces of furniture that isn’t the cookie cutter stuff that the Big Box stores offer – and as equally important, a level of customer service that we hope is heads and shoulders above our peers.
We have so many visions and ideas for the future! We are developing new relationships with some amazing suppliers and can’t wait to continue to wow you with affordable but stunning showstoppers for your homes. We know that it isn't fancy-- but we love that we are in a warehouse -instead of an expensive retail center- because that allows us to keep our prices down for you, our customers. When we save—we pass that savings on to you- and this business model has proven to be a win-win for you and for us.
From the bottom of our hearts, we are eternally grateful that soooo many of you continue to send us your friends and family- that you feel so comfortable referring us- and that you check with us first when it’s time to freshen up a room in your house. Thank you for an incredible 2 years!
