When I reentered the design field in 2018 after several years away raising my children, I poured my heart into this work. Offering both consultation and full-service design allowed me to meet and help hundreds of incredible people across RVA and beyond. As I’ve navigated these two fundamentally different types of services, I’ve realized a few things. Consultation work is wonderfully fast-paced and fun, but it often means...]]></description><link>https://www.curranthouse.com/post/a-new-chapter-is-unfolding</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a74dbd07e238b0b8adadde3</guid><pubDate>Fri, 21 Aug 2026 10:09:02 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Lee Waters Design</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stepping Back to Step Up]]></title><description><![CDATA[A few months ago, I sent out an email sharing that I was scaling back to consultation services for a time. Initially, I was planning to be away from large-scale projects for at least a year and a half, but I am thrilled to say I only needed nine months. I was completely honest with you then: running this business as a one-woman show meant I was wearing every single hat, and I had simply hit a wall. I realized that if I wanted to keep giving my clients the attention and beautifully tailored...]]></description><link>https://www.curranthouse.com/post/stepping-back-to-step-up</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a7b6887ed11f3958cc4936c</guid><pubDate>Tue, 11 Aug 2026 18:33:28 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Lee Waters Design</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Homestead Luxury, a #Firefly Finale, &#38; Bidding Farewell to SC]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Luxury of Good Decisions, Made for You It's officially summer-break, even if it's not technically the summer season just yet. My house is wrecked, no one is eating full meals, and everyone is pretty happy! As soon as school got out, we packed our bags and drove to Hot Springs, VA to stay for a week away at one of our favorite places, The Homestead. Could we have gone to Europe for the same cost? Sure, but what I love about this kind of trip is that it's a true vacation.

I'm currently on the final stages of wrapping up two All In (full-service interior design) projects. You can see some of those recent updates on my Instagram Stories Highlight.

Of course, there are still plenty of content creators showing up in a real way, but as a business owner, I've noticed that so many of the brands and design accounts I follow on social media now feel like they're not really there.

They show the demolition (fun!) and the reveal (tears of joy!), but they skip the part where you spend three weeks debating the merits of "Warm White" vs. "Swiss Skies" grout while your contractor sighs loudly in the background. A successful renovation isn’t just about picking pretty things; it’s about communication . If you hand a contractor a vague idea, you get a vague quote (and a lot of "change orders" later).
