YOU’RE INVITED TO KATHRYN’S E-PARTY!

Join the e-party below to get personal notes, news, decor advice and inspo from Kathryn and receive a FREE copy of Kathryn’s new e-book, “7 Steps to Design + Decorate like a Pro” as a party favor for joining!

YES, I’D LIKE A PARTY FAVOR!

On this wonderful Wednesday, I bring you a winning On this wonderful Wednesday, I bring you a winning Kitchen before + after! 🤍💙 Swipe to see the “before” of this view (and swipe again to see a fun little initial thumbnail sketch from early on in the design process!)

Going back to the “before” had me thinking about process. Oofph. Sometimes “the process” can be grueling and discouraging. Often, it must get worst before it gets better, or as a friend recently reminded me “sometimes you have to take one step back to be able to go two steps forward.” But that is how we arrive at the “after” stronger, better, more lovely in time. Slow and steady. Hold the vision, do the work, take the steps. The “after” will be reached in it’s perfect time. 😉

Whether it’s a home remodel, a health journey, a relationship you’re building, inner healing you’re braving, a dream you’re leaping for, an opportunity you’re waiting for - remember that there’s One who sees and knows you and this process. One who works along side of us to bring the vision about. One who promises to “make all things beautiful in their time”. 

Whatever process you’re beginning or in the midst of, don’t be afraid of what you see walking in on the proverbial start day, or on demo day when you take that “worse” step back, hit delays, or even lose sight of the original vision. There is One who remains steadfast and holds our hands even on days we’re unsure what the heck we got ourselves in to or where it’s going. One who promises to “be faithful to complete the work He began” and helps us do the same.

Remember what it’s all for. Remember where you’re headed with it and why. Have faith. Do your work. Stay the course! It will be worth it, m’dears.

Cheering for you always! 📣

Wherever you are today, I hope you keep your heart-eyes open, eager and expectant for the little gifts today holds. 😊 Be it the foam art in your coffee, the way the sunlight will surprisingly find you, or the dandelion that smiles at you from the curb. With gratitude and wonder, may you collect these little moments like big treasure.

Cheers (or salute, santé, sláinte, skål... 🥂) to a new, gratitude and hope filled-week!

There is much to celebrate here this week, beginning with yesterday actually, so consider this a belated toast-post...

Will was able to come home from the hospital this weekend, yay!! 🙏🏼 🎉 We are so, SO thankful for his positive turnaround in battling Covid. From his amazing care team, to the prayers and support here and friends and family surrounding us - we are truly humbled and so thankful for the Lord’s healing hand on him.

But I couldn’t let yesterday go by without highlighting one of my bestest friends, who also happens to be my right hand gal as Jr. Designer of our outfit, the amazing @emmilyy23 who celebrated her birthday yesterday!! 🥳🥂🎉 (Well, I say celebrated lightly for now, as we had to delay our ACTUAL celebration due to the events of recent weeks but, gives me more time to make the party more #extra between now and then... 😁) 

Happiest birthday, Em!! 💗 You are such a gift and blessing to my life, our family, this company - gah. Words fall short in expressing just how very much you mean to me. Like a bonus sister I received only a few short years ago, who somehow doubles as badass designer who frequently “saves all my bacon” (a handy reference for “saving the day” - you’re welcome) 🥓🤣 I can’t thank you, and Jesus enough, for being here in my life as you are!! Thank you for helping make my life so beautiful, and helping me make other’s lives more beautiful, too! 🏡 ✨ From film sets to premieres, midnight freezing cold swamps and leaf blowing streets (anything for the shot 💪🏼), Kentucky road trips and being by my side for every speeding ticket I’ve ever received 😬, for tackling amazing design feats and decor styling victories with me, from all the sushi and ramen places to the cute coffee shops and unconventional remote offices we find ourselves in - I couldn’t, and wouldn’t wanna do this without you!! 🥲💝 I love you oh-so! 😘 Can’t wait to eat and drink all the things in your honor, soon.

It’s all in the details. From the original des It’s all in the details. 

From the original designs we create, to the the skilled hands of the makers and craftsman who help bring the vision to life - every inch, every stitch, every screw that holds it all together - it’s all planned and accounted for, seen to and carefully cared for. 

It reminds me in ways, of how our Designer plans all our days before the beginning of time. How He delights to bring us, His vision, to life. By His breath and hands. How He “knits us together”. How He “knows our innermost being”. How in love, He holds us together Himself.

“He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.” Col. 1:17

“Indeed, the hairs of your head are all counted. Don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.” Luke 12:7

Like many across the world today, my husband Will is battling COVID 19. Having a preexisting condition and a health history with lungs, this is especially unsettling. Please pray for strength and healing for him, for peace and comfort as well. 

Sweetest Jesus, thank you for caring about every wrestling cell in our bodies. Thank you for aching with us and for being able to relate to us, Your kids - the beautiful work of Your hands. I ask for healing power for all those fighting this illness. I pray especially for our Will today. Please help knit back together the fabric of his hurting lungs right now. Make him strong and victorious over this, in Your mighty name. 🙏🏼💙

Okay, love y’all. More than you know!

“Do not yield to fear, for I am always near. Never turn your gaze from Me, for I am your faithful God. I will infuse you with My strength and help you in every situation. I will hold you firmly with My victorious right hand.” Isaiah 41:10 (my life verse 💘)
When the last couple months have felt like a bit o When the last couple months have felt like a bit of a blur... 💙🌿 

Excited to share this kitchen remodel with you all soon. 😊 Look for it in @athomearkansas magazine December issue, which will be making it’s way out into the world in the next couple weeks!

It is a delight to work with Kathryn LeMaster. She is a good listener who has been able to help us transition into a smaller home while still keeping the essence of our family intact.

My husband and I decided to update our house focusing on the kitchen and bathrooms. We were so impressed from the beginning with Kathryn! She was easy to work with and took our vision and made it all come together! She was extremely professional and we highly recommend her. Thanks Kathryn!! We couldn't be happier!!!

- LAURA D.

I have been doing business with Kathryn for several years, where she had played an integral role to enhance the quality and appeal of the visual impact of our furniture in TV commercial s. She independently picks products that perfectly match each commercial. She is also an absolute pleasure to work with. She is flexible when needed, and always has a positive disposition.

- LAWRENCE ZIGERELLI, PRESIDENT/CEO, FFO HOME

We asked Kathryn to create sets for a food shoot with multiple items. She created sets with for each dish and had them passed them off with the client who was out of town. She was extremely organized and methodical about how she purchased and approved each set. Not only was her work exceptional, her presence made the client feel at ease.

- DERO SANFORD, OWNER, THINKDERO

We highly recommend Kathryn. She listened to us as her clients and executed ideas based upon our design style. We had bought a new house and asked her to help us furnish, design, and style It. We appreciated her detailed drawings and ability to "show" us the vision and plan. She is quick to respond and allows for flexibility based upon timeline needs. Once deciding together on budget, she works toward that goal. She is a lot of fun to work with!

- CHRISTY H.

Kathryn assisted me in styling and accessorizing our new home. She nailed my design ideas and style based on the questionnaire and my comments. I was amazed at how she was able to match my style exactly! It would have taken me years to accomplish what she accomplished in one day. I would highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again in the future.
