Hi, friend! I’m Laura.

I’ve loved making a house a “home” as far back as I can remember. As a little girl, I would redecorate my room with inspiration from the free Pottery Barn catalogs. This need to create a beautiful home has been a theme throughout my life.

And as a natural teacher, I’ve shared the DIY and decorating skills I’ve learned long the way here at The Turquoise Home.

Over the past few years I’ve discovered that so many women are just like me: wanting to create a space they love on a budget 

You CAN transform your home into a space filled with love, laughter and life without breaking the bank. Filling a home with high and low decor finds is so much fun, and can be done on any budget.

My hope is that you will find some of your own style as I share my ideas. That you will find bits and pieces of what you love and incorporate them into the details of your home.

The Houses that Built Me

More than a decade ago I found myself in a new-to-us home with builder-beige everything and a non-existent budget. I had a toddler and a baby, so I had to find pockets of time to work on my home when babies were napping or after bedtime. I quickly learned how to DIY my home decor and I love sharing what I learn as I go.

Then in late 2019, we moved across the neighborhood to a larger home built in the 1990’s. It has great bones, beautiful features, just needs a little love to make it our own. We’re on the journey to makeover each room a little bit at a time!

My Decorating Philosophy

Creating a home isn’t about just copying someone else’s style, but finding bits and pieces of what you love and incorporating them into the details of your home.

I’m a firm believer in going slow, studying your home and adding pieces as you can. Don’t rush this or get overwhelmed. Have a plan. Set a budget.

I hope to inspire you to get your hands dirty, build something, face your fears and trust your gut! You don’t have to be a trained designer to create a space that you love. Promise!

My Family

When I’m not decorating or DIYing, I’m busy being a wife to “Coach” and a mom to my two precious girls. I started this business when my oldest was just 1, and have been making over my home between naps, preschool and now shuttling them to their after school activities for more than a decade!

It’s a gift to be able to have a career while being home with my family. So thank you from the bottom of my heart for being here to support me and our family.
