Debbie: Decorating with "props" is Debbie's specialty, a trick she learned from watching set designers in her previous career as a television commercial actress. No room is too big or too small to benefit from the addition of a perfectly placed prop, and Debbie's forte is bringing those pieces together to enhance the look of any room.

Katie: Four years of dorm living helped Katie develop an enthusiasm for small-space decorating and a discerning eye for great bargains. Now out of college and living in her own slightly bigger space, Katie's personal style has evolved from dorm-chic to shabby-chic. With her unique blend of white weathered pieces, animal prints, chandeliers, and lots and lots of pink, Katie's "anything goes" philosophy is ideal for young professionals ready to decorate their first home.

Tamara: Tamara started her own art gallery in the 80s, and her artwork has been sold by agents in Chicago, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Columbus and Phoenix. It should come as no surprise, then, that painting is Tamara's specialty - from original paintings to murals to floorcloths to furniture to fabric to glass.

Kristin: Like Katie, Kristin believes that every room should have a chandelier and a touch of pink. She loves to mix the unexpected with the homeowner's personal pieces, to introduce a weathered architectural fragment into a modern setting, and, above all, to bring a playful approach to chic interiors.

Connie: With a college background in painting, art history, furniture design and architecture, Connie's specialty includes both residential and commercial interiors, focusing on 18th and 19th century furniture and design. Connie firmly believes that the home should reflect the personality of the clients - the interests, colors and styles that they love.

Sharon: The decor in Sharon's own home includes bold colors, original artwork, English carved ball and claw chairs, a grand piano.and authentic clown shoes! With degrees in psyhology and music, and work experience in public relations, music, and writing for film and TV, Sharon's design style is as unique as she is. Sharon believes that decorating, like life, should be fun, and she's got the architectural fragments from a temple in Thailand, the embroidered communion cloth serving as a pillow cover, and the clown shoes to prove it!
