Cheryl is an internationally award-winning interior designer. Her design philosophy is that decorating should be fun, functional and comfortable.

She visited several days after to find the homeowner had moved their pet’s much beloved yet, haggard, bed into the finished room. Aghast at the sight of this inappropriately appointed object in her exquisite creation, the idea was born to create equally elegant furnishings for pets.
Patricia is the sole proprietor of “Dress U Up”. As your wardrobe consultant, she helps people simplify one area of daily decision-making by finding their own style and building a wardrobe to reflect the remarkable person they truly are. Patricia’s talent is huge and she is the force behind the unique and fabulous Doggie Boogie wardrobe.
