Cha-cha-cha, changes…….(design board sale!)


I posted this photo on Instagram about a week ago.  It shows some of the
changes I have made to our dining space - and there are still more to come!
I took some heat from a blog reader who insinuated I had
unlimited funds from which to re-do my house - nothing could
be further from the truth. But the Restoration Hardware chairs I had had
for about 10 years - they had served our family well and I sold them 
and used the proceeds to purchase these new bentwood beauties - 
the former light fixture was swapped out in favor of this fun and playful
one from Schoolhouse Electric - these seemingly small changes really
changed the look of our dining space!  I can't help it -
I am a creative, this is what I do for a living.
I like changing things up.

This week, the space will be painted
and a new rug added.  Stay tuned!  

What I always want you and my clients to know is this - it doesn't have to
take oodles of money to live in a comfortable, pretty home. It just doesn't.
And often the 'feeling' of comfort in your home doesn't come from the 
sofa choice, the pillow, art or paint.  The 'feeling' of comfort many
are striving for comes from living in their spaces - so light a candle,
CLEAN!, pour a glass of wine (or tea), take a bubble bath….
our busy lives seem to prevent us from really enjoying the living
that should be done within the four walls of our homes - no amount of
pillows, or paint or accessories can bring that.

In celebration of the new season - of my cha-cha-cha-changes,
I am offering FOUR e-design spots for the months
of May-June.  I have not been promoting my e-design
services because they seem to come without it and my work
with local clients has been full!  BUT, I really do LOVE working
with you all via e-design - it is challenging yes, but it tests my creativity
in a way I really find satisfying!

So here is the deal:  In the past, I always took on more e-design clients
than I initially advertised that I would because I could not turn 
anyone away.  THAT is not going to happen this time -
it's not fair to me or to you.  So I am limiting myself to taking
the first FOUR clients who pay their Paypal deposit, it's the most
fair way of doing this, I believe.

I am charging just $275 for ONE space!
(regular price is $350)

What e-design is:

- You send photos, I send questions, you answer
questions in a timely fashion. I send more questions,
measurement requests, you answer in a timely fashion.

- We share Pinterest boards.

- We work on ONE space, not adjoining spaces.

- I submit a design board to you, you pay your design fee balance.

- We tweak, make additions and subtraction to the design board
until we get it right, but no more than THREE times.

-We have FUN!!!

-I submit a completed design board and source list
at the conclusion of the process!

How e-design is limited:

- I can't help design a gallery wall.

- I can't help with styling/arranging large bookshelves.

**Both the above are just TOO hard to do remotely.

- I can't help with the adjoining room along with the one
room you paid the design fee 'because they are open
to one another'……I can help with that adjoining
space if we add an additional room to your design fee.

I would LOVE to work with four fun clients in May and June!

To secure a spot, please email me jill.hinsondesigns@gmail.com -
I am happy to answer any questions and/or talk about if 
e-design is right for your space!

  1. I so agree about really living in, celebrating, and enjoying your home. It is not all about paint colors and pillows. Don't feel bad about making changes to your home. I am also a designer and do the same thing in my home. My neighbor asked me about my "contentment". ;-) It is not about contentment; it is a passion and a hobby. I would choose to do something to my home over spending on a lavish vacation. We all have our "thing". Can't wait to see your changes even though I love your home as is!

  2. crushing on those dark bent woods with the rustic farmhouse table! Isn't everyone on a budget? I have so many things I would love to do but I have to be really creative as there are not a lot of funds. I love the changes. Light and airy for the season. Can't wait to see the final touches!

  3. I'm loving the changes you are making! Can't wait to see which rug you chose. Btw, I swear I didn't steal your post title today. I just got a moment to sit down and read this post and had to giggle that I had used pretty much the same title. Haha

  4. When I saw the pic of this room I had to smile because I just redid my dining area and it looks very similar to yours - same rug, wall color, table, black chairs and window treatments, so I am very curious to see the new paint color and area rug. I am hoping I don't fall crazy in love with it and want to change up my space since I just finished it last week!!!
