This course will take you from feeling frustrated and overwhelmed with your home to feeling confident and inspired, and experience the joy of living in a cohesively designed home that speaks to who you are, with the satisfaction of knowing you have all the tools you need to continue to transform your home, room by room.

An Instagram and Pinterest junkie with hundreds (thousands?) of amazing ideas saved for a "sometime" down the road when you'll have the time to execute it...but you're overwhelmed at the thought of narrowing down your vision and bringing it to life...so you just keep spinning and pinning.
A Mom or Dad of little ones who wants to create a liveable, beautiful home to make memories in now while your kids are young and don't want to wait until you're an empty nester to have a home you love...but also you're busy raising kids, so it has to be easy and do-able.
A scrappy do-er who loves transforming your home and maximizing your design dollars for the biggest impact, and know you could totally transform your home if you just had some guidance.
A new home owner or recent remodeler who spent the bulk of your budget on the bones of your home, and you desperately want to make it your own and have a finished space to enjoy.
In a season of overwhelm and know in your heart that how you feel is deeply affected by your physical environment, and you want to create a space to support you being your best self.
YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE!
Cohesive Home will give you the framework, the tips, the designer's secrets, and guidance to create a Cohesive Home that you love

BURNING QUESTIONS
Answers to our most frequently asked questions
We can't help every client 1 on 1 that comes to our door.
This one's tough for me.
Every week, we receive between 2-5 requests for new projects with wonderful people. Some big, some small. Many that feel like a great fit.
And we have to turn about 80% of them away due to our limited bandwidth. It broke my heart to have to turn away people who desire to have a beautiful, cohesive home, because I know how much living in a space you love positively impacts your quality of life.
We created Cohesive Home to have something to offer these amazing folks who just want their homes to be more beautiful, functional, and liveable. By brain dumping our method and expertise, we are thrilled to have the opportunity to serve more people than we ever could 1 on 1.
I truly hope inside of Cohesive Home you'll find the tools, tips, and inspiration that you've been missing. There's so much value crammed in here than I could ever begin to fit into a blog post or Instagram caption. Having a system to take on your home design in a game-changer.
We hope it blesses you and your home.
HERE'S THE HARD TRUTH
Tara
IF YOU'RE THINKING
Hey, this sounds pretty great, but I'm still not
100% sure, keep reading.
01.
You want a home you can enjoy...badly.
You scroll through Instagram and Pinterest and wonder why it is that everyone has their home (and life) together but you don't.
First of all, nobody has their life together. Don't compare your real life to someone else's filtered highlight reel.
BUT. That doesn't mean that you have to suffer through with a home that isn't meeting your needs, that's draining, disjointed, and that you long to make so much more.
Having a beautiful home is about WAY more than being surface-pretty. It's about having a finished space that gives you peace, calm, and rest. Home is meant to be our sanctuary. A space to make memories with your family. The beauty is the icing on the cake. Loving your life at home is the real reward.
02.
You're not afraid of putting in the work.
Getting thing done is your jam. Maybe you've thought yourself how to cook (even though you'd rather order Thai takeout). You get yourself to the gym on occasion because it's good for you (props, I haven't been in 17 years and counting). And even though you didn't give a lick about Anthropology in college (more like Anthropologie) you managed to muddle through and get yourself that B to keep your scholarship.
My point is, you aren't afraid of a little hard work. Sure, this is going to take some time and energy. But remember, you are saving thousands of dollars by doing this on your own. We love serving our clients 1:1, but designing a room starts at $2500 in design fees alone. For a fraction of that, you'll have the skills to DIY this and repeat it over and over again.
03.
You know there's no "perfect time" to start.
I know what it's like to wake up in a home that is assaulting you with everything that is wrong. The endless to do list, evidence of design mistakes past from HomeGoods, and all of those spaces you promised yourself at the new year that you'd get to...three years ago.
Hard truth - there's never a perfect time to undertake a change. The best time to start creating a home you love was maybe was the day you moved in. The second best day is TODAY.
Give yourself the gift of a roadmap. You wouldn't go on a road trip without GPS. You don't have to design your home without a roadmap, either.
Take the first strategic move to creating the home you love. We typically only regret the things we don't do.
