The Perfect Time to Buy: Why Expert Advice Isn't Always Your Best Advice
Hey there, neighbors!
We’re the Vegas. I’m Allison, your local Murfreesboro design consultant, with my husband Francis, a licensed general contractor.

Between Allison decorating and staging houses and Francis tearing them apart to make them better, we’ve seen every side of the Middle Tennessee market. Lately, the biggest question we get over coffee at Joanie’s or at the dinner table is: "When is the best time to buy?"
Most people say the best time to buy is now. We disagree. We say the best time to buy is when you are actually ready.
2026 Home Trends: Goodbye Stark White, Hello Big Hugs!
Hey there, friends!

We’re talking moodier colors, softer shapes, and spaces that actually want you to live in them.
Grab your coffee (or wine—I won’t judge!), and let’s dive into my favorite interior design trends coming our way in 2026.
