Transform your space into a beautiful, elevated home without the cost of a major remodel.

You don't have to start over. You need someone with an eye to walk in, see what's worth keeping, and help you create a home that feels like you again.

You Don’t Always Need a Full Renovation

Many homes start to feel dated over time, and the design world often wants to sell you a demolition. Gut the kitchen. Replace all the furniture. Start from scratch.

I work a little differently.

I walk into a room everyone is ready to tear apart and find what's worth keeping. Then I build around those pieces while bringing your vision for the space to life.

Sometimes it's a smarter layout. Sometimes it's better lighting, artwork, fresh decor or furniture. Sometimes it's simply seeing the space with fresh eyes.

A few thoughtful changes can completely transform the way a room feels and turn it into a space you actually want to spend time in again.

Meet Shannon

I've always believed creating a beautiful home shouldn't require a massive renovation or an unlimited budget.

What started with real estate, home staging, countless HomeGoods runs, and helping friends refresh their homes naturally evolved into Refresh Designs.

Along the way, I noticed the same pattern over and over again. Most people thought they needed to start over.

They almost never did.

What they really needed was someone to walk through their home with fresh eyes, see what was worth keeping and create a plan that made the whole space finally feel pulled together.

That's where I come in.

I help homeowners fall back in love with the home they already have without the renovation, the chaos, or the expense of starting from scratch.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

  • We had the pleasure of working with Shannon, a dear friend, to refresh our home, and the experience was truly special.

    Because she knows us personally, she brought such warmth, care, and thoughtfulness to every part of the process. She listened closely to what mattered to us, kept our budget in mind, and used her creativity to help create spaces that are not only beautiful, but also comfortable, functional, and very much our own.

    What we appreciated most was the way Shannon looked beyond simply decorating and found ways to weave our personal story into the design. One of the most meaningful examples was her idea to incorporate my mom’s antique sewing machine into my sewing room. It was such a thoughtful touch, and it made the room feel both beautiful and deeply personal.

    Shannon has a wonderful gift for making a home feel refreshed, welcoming, and reflective of the people who live there. We are so grateful for her talent, her patience, and the heart she put into our home. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a designer who brings both vision and genuine care to her work.

    Janet

  • Working with Shannon from Refresh Designs to refresh our home was a genuinely pleasant experience from start to finish. She took the time to really listen to what we wanted, remained considerate of our budget throughout, and even found creative ways to repurpose pieces we already owned. Shannon was attentive, pragmatic, and able to work autonomously- which made the whole process stress-free. Her feedback was clear and concise, and she delivered exactly what we envisioned, on time and on budget. We couldn't be happier with the results and would highly recommend her!

    Lydia

  • I cannot say enough wonderful things about the job Shannon did furnishing and decorating our two-bedroom, one-bath beachfront rental property. She took care of absolutely everything in the unit, from the furniture and decor to the dishes and towels…including a welcoming coffee and tea station, and all the little details that make a place feel complete.

    Since the property is right on the beach, we wanted the space to reflect its surroundings without feeling like a beach “theme.” Shannon completely understood what we were hoping for and created a space that feels coastal, comfortable, and thoughtfully put together while still feeling subtle and elevated.

    One of the things I appreciated most was how mindful she was of our budget. She worked within a really lean budget and made smart choices, knowing that, as a rental, items may get damaged or dirty and may need to be replaced over time. She found pieces that looked great, worked well for guests, and were affordable enough to make sense for a rental property.

    She also went above and beyond by finding people to assemble furniture when we were unavailable, which made the whole process so much easier for us.

    Shannon truly owned the project from start to finish, and we are so grateful for the care, thoughtfulness, and effort she put into the space.

    The return on investment has been clear for us as well. Having such a beautiful,comfortable, and thoughtfully designed space has paid us back through repeat bookings and outstanding reviews from our guests.

    We would absolutely recommend Shannon to anyone looking for help bringing a space to life in a beautiful, practical, and personal way.

  • “I just have to tell you how grateful I am for you! 💛

    Moving into a new house felt overwhelming, and I kept thinking I needed to go buy all new things to make it feel complete. But you have such an incredible eye for detail. Instead of telling me to replace everything, you showed me how to use what I already had in a fresh way.

    I love how you can simply move a piece, restyle a shelf, or rearrange a room, and suddenly I fall in love with those items all over again. ✨

    You have such a gift for design, simplicity, and aesthetics. You create spaces that feel beautiful, intentional, and peaceful without making them feel cluttered or overdone.

    You are truly so talented at what you do, and I’m so excited for everyone who gets the opportunity to work with you. Thank you for helping turn our house into a home that feels so uniquely us.

  • Shannon has an incredible eye for design and a real gift for seeing the potential in a room. She thoughtfully suggested just a few new furniture and décor pieces that made a huge impact, giving my home a clean, inviting, and updated feel without losing the warmth and memories that make it ours.

    What impressed me most was how much she taught me throughout the process. I learned simple design principles and practical ways to style my home that I can use for years to come. Even better, she stayed well under the budget we had discussed while creating results that exceeded my expectations.

    If you're feeling overwhelmed by your space or just want a fresh new look without starting from scratch, Shannon is the person to call. Her creativity, patience, and talent are truly exceptional!
