Thank you...

Thank you for the warm "welcome back" to Manhattan!  After earning my Interior Design degree from Kansas Statue University 30 years ago it feels wonderful to be back, starting this new chapter.

​

I grew up on my family homestead in north central Kansas and am inspired by the beauty of the rural lifestyle, full of grit and a little rebellion.  A love of vintage got me started rescuing old furniture and repurposing items for my first business, Shabby Shed Furniture & Interior Design. My desire with G.Marie Home Design is to bring Interior Design to real people who want to their house to feel a little more like home. Follow me on Facebook & Instagram to join the community and watch my projects!

​

I feel honored to work with clients in their homes, helping create spaces that feel personal, comfortable, and truly loved. My goal is to make the process easy and enjoyable. I’ll listen to your ideas, answer questions, offer clear guidance, and provide a custom estimate before we get started. And yes, I still show up ready to help… sometimes with a paintbrush and ladder in hand!


I can't wait to hear what you’ve been dreaming of...let's get it done!​
