Meeting You Where You Are At: The Choose Your Own Adventure Decorating Service

“I don’t know if this is too small for you, BUT I just want help with X…”

I often get calls from potential clients where the conversation starts with these exact words. I also suspect there are even more people out there thinking the same thing and not calling, because they assume I wouldn’t help them with Task X only.

In the past, this was mostly true. If you look at the projects in our portfolio, these were completely custom full-room decorating projects, not rooms that only needed a few bits and bobs. Full-room custom decorating is where I shine, because I have the most control over ensuring a fabulous outcome and we do all of the work to get the job done, hence we can take photos.

Our Custom Decorating Service is still perfect for clients who want to rip off the bandaid and get their home completed in the fastest way with guaranteed results, whilst also protecting their own time. (Good things still take time, but at least they don’t drag on forever!)

However, after hearing “I just need X” from so many classic-loving homeowners over the years, I’ve had to ask myself the difficult question… Should I only take on projects that require a full makeover, or should I meet you where you are at?

Are you an action-taker who dreams of being house-proud?

Here is what I have realised: There are many people who want to enjoy the process of choosing their dream home for themselves. In fact, for some, it is their dream to do so, and who am I to stand in the way of that?

When I started Journey Home more than a decade ago, I knew that I wanted to leave a lasting impact on Canberra and the ACT. If you have looked around here lately, then you know that overly modern and manufactured design is the standard. I simply can’t accept that. I won’t.

I believe beauty lies in timeless, classic style — natural fabrics and materials, curves and character and craftsmanship, comfort in layers and sophistication.

If you’re reading this, I know you share our great taste, and if you want to create your forever home yourself, I applaud you. After all, I am doing the very same thing!

I also know that at various stages you may get stuck with overwhelm and need help with this or that. There are so many facets to renovating and decorating, and it is not usually until you are in the thick of it that you may realise it’s time to put your hand up for some help. And I’ve realised, I want to help. Here’s how…
