FROM SEPARATED TO SINGLE AND STYLISH
When I started working with Cameron, she was knee-deep in a divorce that meant that she’d be living on her own for the first time in years.
She’s a licensed therapist who was used to holding space for lots of people during times of major transition, yet her own living space wasn’t the safe place that held her.
The Before

A New Chapter

Autonomy
After she moved into her new place, Cameron also quickly realized that although she had more freedom and creative control of her own life, that autonomy wasn’t always so easy.
The moving truck she’d unloaded and the boxes she’d unpacked were filled with both joyful and painful memories and she needed new furniture that felt more like her.
But as I’m sure you know, divorces aren’t just heartbreaking. They’re also expensive.

Signature Decorating Style
Which is why I helped Cameron discover her signature decorating style and how she could incorporate pieces into her new nest that were both stylish and budget-friendly.
Here’s what I discovered when I worked with Cameron on Give Me The Vision:

She has a feminine, almost ethereal style but “rugged boho” is not her vibe—she likes clean and aesthetically pleasing pieces
Her work as a therapist often leaves her holding the heavy stories of everyone else, but as she navigated life after divorce, she needed her own space to heal
The biggest word she wanted her home to feel like is “peaceful,” so that she could feel settled when she laid her head to rest each night

Starting Over
What I loved most about working with Cameron though is how—even though she was starting over and had a lot of pieces to buy for her new place—she knew exactly what she wanted to buy (and from where).
Cameron had a budget in mind and mixed and matched brand new pieces from others that she’d thrifted or found on Facebook Marketplace and in my professional opinion…
It all ended up feeling SO much more like her than if she had just filled a shopping cart at her local Target, just to make sure she had something on the walls.

“Michelle is fantastic! I know what I like but have never been able to turn that into a space that embodied what I like. She made it so easy. I made a simple vision board showing the colors, styles and vibe I wanted and she took it from there. Before I know it, I had a dream space that was me! I have had her do two houses and two offices and rely on her for all my decorating needs. You will not be disappointed.” – Cameron
