by christina britt lewis i want to have friends that i can trust that love me for the (wo)man i'll become, not the (wo)man that i was and i want to have friends that let me be all alone when being alone is all that i need... i want to have pride like my mother has and not like the kind in the bible that turns you bad i want to have friends that i can trust that love me for the (wo)man i'll become, not the (wo)man that i was - the avett brothers and me feels like i've been in hibernation for... like... almost a year and four months. ahem... grateful for friends who let me be alone when being alone is all that i need. and grateful for friends who say "enough already! get your shit together. we have work to do." so i've been getting my shit together... downsized again! bought a townhouse in the city with a rooftop deck and a killer view of the skyline. downsized my jeep. got a pretty little two door. downsized the company. no more workshops and weekends. for now, anyway. downsized myself. lost thirty pounds. #thankstrump lol... downsized my closet. nothing fits. so i gave it all away and bought a few things i really love. like this french sailor shirt and jeans from old navy....  wore it two days in a row because... when our new client opened her front door, she gasped, eyed me up and down, and said... make my home all navy, cream, and cognac with a little bit of gold. make my home look just like you. so get used to this outfit, my people. i will wear it every day. been wearing french sailor shirts since high school. and navy, cream, and cognac with a little bit of gold has always been my favorite...     i do want to have pride. like my mother has. and not like the kind in the bible that turns you bad. the things that make me the most proud? 1. tim, cole, and camden lewis 2. our houzz reviews here's the latest one... I interviewed multiple designers before settling on The Redesign Company to redesign our living room/kitchen. They are hands down the BEST in their field. My husband and I were moving into a new construction home from an apartment in South Charlotte, and I was feeling a bit overwhelmed with the transition and multiple decisions needed in selecting new furniture. My home felt empty and current pieces uncoordinated, and this was where Christina and Kelly came in. From the moment they stepped into my home, I felt at ease. I could sense that they ‘got it’. Part of this is their easygoing and kind personalities, but also the multiple years of experience that they bring to the field and in ‘making homes happy’. Christina and Kelly selected the perfect pieces for my home. I could have spent hours and hours searching for these items (and it still wouldn’t have been as wonderful as what The Redesign Company selected), but Christina and Kelly got it immediately and made the process seamless. Contrast with the other design firms I interviewed which didn’t afford a lot of transparency on cost (hidden fees, mark-ups, limited sourcing to only select high/end vendors) and would have been more expensive. With The Redesign Company, you know what you are paying for up front and you get HGTV worthy styles at half the cost because they understand that you don’t have to pay a fortune to have a beautiful home. if you are hibernating like i was, enough already!
we need you. get your shit together. we have work to do. making homes happy... because it's the way we know how to make our world a better place. it's the thing we do best. what do you do best? go do that. we need you. christina for all Comments are closed.
