As Seen On
We remember what it felt like before all of this
That stuck, overwhelmed, “where do I even start” feeling? We know it well.
Because we’ve been there too– standing in the paint aisle, completely stuck, Pinterest board full of things we loved but no idea how to make them real.
Does any of this sound familiar?
You want color in your home, but you’re terrified that it will end up looking like a clown house instead of the warm, collected space you dream of.
You have 200 pins saved and nothing to show for it. The inspiration is there. The actual plan… not so much.
There are paint samples on your wall that have been there forever. It’s just too hard to commit!
You don’t invite people over as often as you’d like because you’re embarrassed by your lack of design skills.
Here’s the good news– you just don’t have a method (yet!) Once you do, and you know the actual steps to follow, adding color will start feeling like something you’re genuinely good at.
Imagine actually finishing a room & loving it
This is what it looks like on the other side of having a method.
Scrolling Pinterest for an hour and feeling more confused than when you started.
Becomes
Knowing exactly how to pull colors from a photo you love into a real plan for your real room.
Picking a paint color, second-guessing it immediately, and doing nothing.
Becomes
A step-by-step way to test and commit to paint– and even an easy way to sample it (no painting on walls required!)
Every room feeling like a separate, disconnected decision you made on a different day.
Becomes
A whole-home palette– colors that feel intentionally connected, room to room. you love into a real plan for your real room.
Avoiding color altogether because you’re afraid of getting it wrong and being stuck with it.
Becomes
Understanding why colors work — so you can make bold choices with actual confidence, not just hope.
You don’t need to have it all figured out before you start. You just need a place to start– and a method that makes the next step obvious. That’s what the membership is for!
We learned it the slow way, so you don’t have to.
We spent the last five years decorating our home room by room, making every mistake worth making along the way.
What we wish we’d had earlier wasn’t someone to do it for us– it was a method. A clear framework we could follow with confidence, room by room, decision by decision.
That’s what our membership teaches.
Not a Pinterest board, not vague inspiration– actual steps for how to pick colors, build a palette, test paint, and finally trust yourself enough to commit.
The goal isn’t a perfectly designed home. It’s a home that feels like you, that you made yourself, that you’re proud of.
When it came time to set a price, we asked ourselves one honest question: what would we have been willing to pay back then? The answer was $7 a month. So that’s what it is– not a sale, not an intro offer. Just the real price, for anyone who’s ready to start.at makes you happy!

Workshops YOu Can Actually use
Lessons, Canva Templates, and real examples– not just theory.
Not inspiration for inspiration’s sake– a repeatable way to go from “I don’t know where to start” to paint on the walls you’re genuinely happy with.
How TO Build A color Palette
Make every room feel like part of the same house, instead of a string of disconnected decisions you made on different days.
How To Test Paint
Exactly how, where, and how long to sample so you only paint a wall once. No more two-inch swatches and guessing.
How TO Pick a Perfect White
A simple system for narrowing a hundred whites down to the one that’s right for your light, your trim, and your floors.
How TO break Down A Room You Love
Reverse-engineer any room that stops you mid-scroll, color by color, so you can see exactly why it works.
Each lesson lives inside a larger workshop– and the workshop topics are influenced by YOU!
Here’s What’s Waiting For You
Inside the Home in the Hemlocks membership, you’ll get everything you need to create a home that feels like you.
The framework
The complete design approach I use in every room– so your decisions feel intentional instead of overwhelming. Start here before anything else.
Lessons by topic
Practical, in-depth guides across color, art, furniture, and the little details that give a home personality. Not inspiration, actual instruction.
Using Color
Color is where everything starts. I’ll show you how to build a whole room palette from a single piece you love, so everything feels connected without feeling matchy.
Art & Framing
Art is what makes a home feel personal. We go deep on finding it, framing it, and putting it everywhere without it feeling chaotic. Thrifted pieces, kids’ drawings, Etsy prints– all of it welcome, none of it too precious.
The Details
The details are what make people stop and ask “wait, where did you get that?” I’ll show you how to find yours and how to use them without going too far. (Though honestly, go a little too far. It’s fine!)
Behind the scenes
Room-by-room walkthroughs, real budgets, and before-and-afters with the full story– not just the pretty ending. The stuff a good Instagram photo can’t tell you.
A growing library
New lessons added regularly based on what we’re working on and what you’re asking for. This isn’t a course with a finish line– it grows as you do!
