What a great start to the New Year!  I hope you are enjoying it so far, despite the crazy weather we've experienced!    It's always nice to be recognized for the hard work we do, from testimonials to the smiles and comments we get before and after our efforts.  It's also nice to be recognized by inspiring shows such as HGTV!   Now, we haven't made it big...yet, but having an idea featured  in Camille's Blog was certainly nice!  http://blogs.hgtv.com/hgtv/crafts/archives/2008/01/your_great_holi.html  

We're looking forward to being featured Chesapeake Home Magazine's Jun/Jul edition too!  

For those of you who are checking our design portfolio - current projects - we'll be completing most those projects at the end of this month and into February!  We have more new projects taking place - so check back often for updates and new design inspirations for your own home!  http://www.simplybeautifulspaces.com/  

Don't forget - we're working with the All About Redesign in bringing a training and certification course to Stafford!  Check out http://www.allaboutredesign.com/ and click on "Traveling Workshop" or http://www.simplybeautifulspaces.com/ to learn more.    I have to tell you - if it weren't for Julie, I wouldn't have been as inspired or excited to start this business!  

 Coming in March - mini classes will be offered to those who like "DIY" but need a few tips and hints to get them inspired and ready to work in their own home!   If you or someone you know is looking for a great way to have face to face time with me to ask questions and get help with some decorating ideas, this is a great opportunity!   If you'd like more information or want to suggest a specific topic, send me an email!  I'd love to hear from you.  

Since Simply Beautiful Spaces, LLC is celebrating it's first six months of successful design efforts, we want to extend our thanks to the people who have supported us and cheered us on!   For our loyal friends and customers, we're offering a free one hour consultation - contact us to set up an appointment - we can help you choose paint colors, artwork, or design ideas for your home!
