Growing up in Southern Texas, Nancy initially developed
her love of decorating from a high-school Home Economics
class. Using her own bedroom as her project, she transformed
drab into beautiful and transformed herself into someone
who was hopelessly hooked on beautifying living spaces.
This was just the beginning of a creative passion that's
still growing today.
In 1984, Nancy's creative repertoire was enhanced and
expanded when she moved to England. Traveling all over
Europe and the Middle East, she was exposed to beautiful
Old World architecture and design. From elegant Italian,
French and English design to provincial Spanish, rural
Bavarian, Dutch and Austrian, Nancy has been influenced
by an extreme range of cultures and tastes. |

From fabricing walls in the early 80's to
creating stylish and exciting window treatments with as
little as fabric remnants, rubber bands and staples, her
creativity is unmatched. Years of association with, and
a lifetime member of the Hobby Industry of America (HIA)
have left her with many creative touches outside the realm
of standard decorating. Nancy expanded into Interior Faux Finishing after having been formally trained in oils in
Retford England, apprenticed under students formally trained
by Annie Sloan of London England, Plaid Enterprises in
Atlanta Georgia, and right here in Omaha. That, coupled
with formal Interior Decorating study, gives her an outlook
on interiors that's well beyond the norm. |
Nancy's recent accomplishments include three national-level
awards for her faux & decorative work, display rooms
in the Omaha Symphony Designer Showhouse, Remodel
Omaha Tour, and a showcase room for Deeb Realty. Nancy's
work has also been chosen to beautify three local churches.
Nancy's been busy since she decided to call the Omaha area
home in 2000. After 16 years in Europe, her talents have been discovered
right here in the Heartland. Give her a call, and find out
what it truly means to go "Beyond the Finish".

The thought of design puts a smile on my face. I have been designing interiors for over 10 years. I love to take a person's personality and put that in the space that they work and live in. I also enjoying taking what you already have using it in new and different ways. I would love the opportunity to make the space that you work and live in reflect you. Let me help you Reuse, Refresh and Rediscover your surroundings. |
