What the Designer for a Day Service Includes

Curious about how the Designer for a Day service works? Typically, this service offers a focused six-hour session (or longer) with Welcome Home Styling Interior Designer Jessica Woodward, tailored to fit the unique needs of each client. 

The session is flexible, addressing specific goals like setting up a single room, giving a room a fresh look, selecting essential furniture, creating a cohesive color palette or offering individuals a second opinion to ensure the style and design they chose in their home flows well. By the end of the session, clients leave with a clear, actionable design plan to bring their vision to life. Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect with this service:

A Personalized, Six-Hour Design Session

The Designer for a Day service at Welcome Home Styling typically includes a six-hour session dedicated to the homeowner’s needs. The timing can be adjusted based on preferences, with options for extended hours or even a working lunch for a more flexible experience.

This immersive experience begins with a comprehensive walkthrough of the space, where the designer listens to the client’s vision, identifies challenges, and discusses priorities. Whether they want to focus on one room or need help in other areas, the session is adaptable and suited to their needs.

End-of-Day Results

During the session, Jessica Woodward assists in making important decisions, such as paint colors, furnishings, and décor. By the end of the session, the homeowner will have a clear plan and a shopping list ready to go. This effective process saves time and alleviates the stress of post-holiday planning, giving the homeowner a head start on designing their dream space.

Flexible Focus Areas

One of the best features of our Designer for a Day service at Welcome Home Styling is its flexibility. Homeowners can choose to address immediate needs, such as styling their home, or use the time to plan for future projects like styling their living room, dining room, bedrooms or organizing a home office. 

This versatility ensures the session is customized to fit each client’s goals, offering a tailored design experience that addresses both current priorities and long-term vision, making it a truly personalized gift.

Why New Homeowners Will Appreciate This Holiday Gift

Moving into a new home is exciting but can quickly become overwhelming. New homeowners might discover that their existing furniture doesn’t fit well, or find themselves stumped by an awkwardly shaped room that’s hard to style. Perhaps the new space is larger, requiring additional pieces that need to blend seamlessly with what they already own. 

Our Designer for a Day service takes the pressure off, providing expert guidance to solve these common issues. Jessica Woodward’s tailored advice helps new homeowners make confident decisions, creating a cohesive, comfortable space that truly feels like home.

Relief During a Busy Season 

Juggling unpacking with the pressure of creating a welcoming space can feel daunting. Our Designer for a Day experience offers timely, expert advice, giving new homeowners fresh ideas and practical solutions for their space. Jessica Woodward helps answer critical design questions and provides a clear plan, making the transition smoother and less stressful while setting the stage for a more comfortable home.

Thoughtful and Personalized

Designer for a Day is a fully customized experience for our clients. Whether we’re conducting in person furniture shopping or looking over architectural plans, we will set them up for success in their interior design journey. Although Designer for a Day is the perfect gift for new homeowners, it is not a gift they will necessarily purchase for themselves. This makes it the perfect, most thoughtful and personalized gift for the homeowners in your life.
