Back when I was a young wife with young children, I did not understand that how your home looked affected how you felt being there. I never decorated, I never painted, I never brought in my own touches... And I NEVER wanted to be there. Home did not feel like home. So I would take my children every morning and go somewhere else. So much of my life changed forever once I met Gail. I distinctly remember the feel of walking into her home, and truly feeling home. Warm, inviting, personal, beautiful, a place I wanted to stay.

Over the course of our years-long friendship, we spent countless evenings discussing our passions. One such passion that couldn't be missed, was her passion for design. I had never put two and two together that home design made such an impact on your quality of life. I soon got inspired, and with Gail's guidance and encouragement, I began learning how to bring in the beautiful, warm, and inviting elements of design into my own home. She taught me how to paint. She taught me how to pick out decor, and rearrange the spaces, until suddenly I loved my home! I loved being there! I always love bringing to her a problem area. She will simply begin pulling out from her imagination wonderful ideas, like Mary Poppins carpet bag! It is magical to watch! As I began implementing those ideas, 100% of the time, they were perfect for the space! Not only has she helped me countless times, and taught me how important home design is, but she has also taught me how to accomplish the techniques myself. I could speak forever on all the ways she has affected my life for the better. She has inspired my own vision, to create my own masterpieces, as well as helping others to achieve theirs!

Watching and working alongside Gail over the years, I marvel at how she is able to perfectly capture each client's personal style, passion and vision, and wrap them up perfectly into a home design they adore for years to come. — HW

Gail’s designs bring out what you always knew you wanted and could not put together yourself. She took what I had and transformed our bedroom from a mismatched, forgotten space into a cohesive, relaxing primary bedroom.

She can seamlessly pull a space together for entertaining, or for more intimate family use. The way she utilizes texture and scale really elevates each space Gail creates. Her passion for design and creating a space we love was contagious. It made me even more excited for the current project, and for more projects in the future.

She is dependable and responsive, and creates beautiful spaces within the agreed upon timeline. The attention to detail on each and every project is unmatched. We highly recommend her. — MM

There are no words to express how wonderful Gail is! She helped us find the perfect modern farmhouse look. Gail effortlessly blended some of our existing pieces with new purchases to make our house feel like a home. She was very patient and made the process simple and smooth for this indecisive overthinker! I highly recommend Gail's Favorite Things for any interior design project. — MB

I asked Gail (with very little confidence in myself) if there was anything I could do with my very tiny bathroom. The shower didn’t drain correctly and mold was growing in the damp grout. She came over and, with so much enthusiasm, told me of the many possibilities. We talked about bringing in brighter colors, choices that would easily handle wear and tear, and tile size options. It was just the push I needed to get excited about the daunting project.

I could not be happier with the end result and I never would have gotten started without her encouragement. I highly recommend her for a consultation. She is endlessly supportive, inspiring, and optimistic, which is exactly what I needed before starting this scary process. — JG
