A space filled with collected treasures, comfortable and well-appointed furniture. Perfectly scaled, beautifully placed artwork…we see images of these homes in magazines, on Pinterest, and are inspired. Yet, translating those images into reality leaves many feeling discouraged and inadequate.
“Our goal is not to simply create a beautiful, Instagram-worthy home, but rather it is to help you create spaces you love, filled with things that are meaningful to you.”
Making that translation from inspiration to reality is what motivates and excites us. We fully believe that creating a “beautiful home” is both achievable and affordable. Our name, re:gather, informs the starting point. Why not start with gathering what you love? Maybe you don't know how to source the perfect light fixture or question your ability to choose a paint color from the myriad of choices on the walls of color chips at your local home improvement store, so we won’t start there. We begin our process in a relaxed setting with a session designed to identify style, spaces, elements, and details that appeal to you: gathering those elements together to build a plan for your unique spaces. One of our primary objectives at re:gather is to help our clients realize that budget and style are not mutually exclusive, but rather they work together in creative and synergistic ways. We’ve spent years perfecting cost-creative solutions in our homes.
We would love the opportunity to consult with you in a “whole home makeover”, but let’s start with one: one room, one idea, one image, one element.
Then we’ll “gather” from there.
We are just like you! We are women who love God, our families, love our communities and love our homes. We, like you, have experienced the overwhelming stress (image-overload) as we navigate the process of creating “home” for our families.
We are moms, daughters, friends, professionals and now, co-workers, what a blessing!
Our lead design consultant, Blynda Purdy has spent the last three decades in pursuit of creating spaces that are both meaningful and beautiful for her husband Don, her four kids and now their families, along with countless others as she loves to have a party and welcome so many into her home. As a former teacher and current mentor to younger women, her passion is to walk alongside-encouraging you while providing guidance and suggestions along with helpful tools in order to equip you to create those same beautiful and meaningful spaces for your people.
“Our process will be far more collaborative than directive, and the results more client-driven than designer-driven”
Our business manager and design assistant, Jessica Braff has enjoyed learning how to maximize space and flip houses with her husband Zach (and two boys in tow) for the last 8 years. She is a homeschool momma, loving every minute of having elementary and preschool aged kids. She is a licensed massage therapist and has run her own business for the last 10 years. She is excited to combine her passion for creating beautiful spaces that are highly functional with her organizational skills and can’t wait to help others do that same thing!
Our brand and marketing director, Kate Parrish is all about seeing the beauty in the everyday things and loves to capture that through photography, words or design.
