Hi, I'm Amy! I'm originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, but I've lived in the Raleigh area of North Carolina for 18+ years--long enough to like sweet tea and "unlike" August! I've owned and operated my interior decorating business, Red Chair Home Interiors, since 2005, and I started this blog in late 2008. If you need personalized decorating help, I offer affordable, in-home decorating services near Cary, NC, and virtual consultations nationwide.
I'm not your "typical" interior decorator! I don't wear cleverly-knotted scarves, I don't have a fancy manicure, and I have no qualms about scouting the nearest Goodwill store for something--anything--to douse with spray paint! In my home, pillowcases get turned into curtains, curtains get turned into pillowcases, and the fruit bowl is actually an old light fixture.
My goal as a blogger is to offer fresh content--original ideas, words, and photos--that you won't find elsewhere on the web. If you enjoy posts about home decorating and organizing, gardening, craft and DIY projects, and the occasional recipe, please pull up a red chair and stay awhile!
