City Farmhouse is open for design consultations online or in person. Consider me your best design friend to help you plan the space of your dreams. You’ve been asking for years, and up until now, I’ve been squeezing them in between brand collaborations and events. But now that my kids are older and very independent, this seems like the perfect transition. My goal with this service is to help you create the home you’ve always dreamed of.
Designing a home can be a daunting task. There are so many choices and decisions to make and so many styles to love. This is where I come in to give you a plan and purpose for each space. Think about how easy it would be to have someone on your team, a friend who gives you career advice. We’ll have fun exploring patterns, color, paint, layout, texture, lighting, furniture choices, and art to create a functional and comfortable space that everyone can enjoy. A well-thought-out design plan will save you time and money and make those difficult decisions crystal clear. Ultimately, it’s about giving you options and tools to empower you to create a home you love.
You can take a tour of my house here. Find more IKEA Billy Bookcase Makeover designs, Black Painted French Doors, and Pea Gravel Patio.
Here’s how it works….
Very simple process. Send me an email to [email protected] Let me know some basics. I will then email you a design questionnaire. Be as specific as possible and upload photos of your space. From there, we will set up the consultation, online or in person.
Full Design Consultation Virtually or In-Person: $500 per room – This package includes a 1-hour design consultation with me in person or via call. We will discuss your needs and desires for the space. From there, I’ll create a Pinterest board, mood board, and expanded resource list. You can use this design plan to keep you on track, whether you decide to tackle everything right away or spread it out over time.
Partial Design Consultation Virtual or In-Person: $325 per room – This package includes a 1-hour consultation with me to discuss your space needs. From there, I will create a Pinterest board with resources and links.
Paint Consultation: $175 per room – includes a 1-hour consultation. I’ll follow up by choosing up to five colors. From there, you can get samples to see what the paint looks like in your space in different lights at different times of the day. I will be happy to contact you afterwards to confirm your choice.
Consultation: $125 per hour – Sometimes, you need a trusted friend (or design best friend) to point you in the right direction. I can provide guidance on choosing style, paint choices, fabrics, layout, sourcing furniture, where to start, what stays and what goes, and more.

I recently had the opportunity to work with designer/decorator Jane O’Brien. Jen is an exceptional, multi-talented person skilled in every aspect of interior design. The client we worked with was going through a very vulnerable time in her life. What truly set Jane apart from anyone I had ever worked with was the kindness, empathy, consideration and compassion she demonstrated. Her generosity and spirit of giving are evident in everything she does.

I would like to express my gratitude to Jane for designing our lower level. This room has been an issue for us ever since we moved trying to figure out how to make it work for multiple uses and somehow get it done within budget. Jane not only met our needs, she went above and beyond! She broke down each area into a clear design for each function, provided links to all the elements, and found the perfect pieces to fit our aesthetic and budget. The best part is that, by listening and asking questions, she was able to come up with the perfect design for our family that feels like “us”; We are so grateful to her! Jen is incredibly sweet, easy to talk to, and extremely talented! If you have the opportunity to work with her, don’t hesitate, you will be so glad you did! Thank you, Jane!
