Grace Your Dwelling Place™

Has Been There…Done That!

Most of my life has been unsettled…hitchhiker, moved 20+ times, empty nester, divorce survivor, at-home worker (not wrecker)! I’ve not only been there personally, but I’ve transitioned many homes swiftly and effortlessly into functional homes.

Being budget conscious inspires me to repurpose and rearrange current furnishings while incorporating color and pattern that revitalizes and refreshes your home.

Grace Along the Way

As an empty nester in 2006 I felt called to revive my design passion. Scripture study, along with my maiden name, inspired me to adapt Psalm 84:1 – with a twist – as my new business name:

Grace Your Dwelling Place™

While the inspiration was there it just wasn’t jelling; so, I began my Realtor©roller coaster ride – melding my family construction background with my design passion – meanwhile restructuring my design business. Been a long time coming…but here it is!

All things in God’s time: resolve to evolve – that’s life!

About that logo

Collaborating with my son – tylerrobotsdesign.com/ we created my logo based on the armillary sphere which combines the concept of time, history, and the evolving universe into one element. It has also been used as a navigational tool by sailors. Its timelessness still symbolizes humanity’s eternal search for knowledge that provides guidance and direction. It truly encompasses my design and life philosophy!

The initials for Grace Your Dwelling Place™ are integrated within my logo as the Chi Rho “Christogram”…the Greek abbreviation for the name of Jesus Christ (with the first two letters of Christ being Chi – the character “X” and Rho – the character “P”). This is a Christian centric business.

Colors: The aqua-colored sphere encompasses our global desire for harmony and balance. The gold ring reflects the luxury of a dwelling place that is an authentic expression of you. Purple is my favorite color and signifies my passion and joy for interior design and life.

The arrow pointing heavenward is a primary point of my purpose…providing upward guidance for your Personal Home Style so you may Live Well Where You Dwell©
