Design’in-Mind
Liz is a native of Bathurst, New Brunswick. She is a free-hand graphic artist. Her friends know her as the accessory lady: she loves jewellery, shoes, hats, purses and scarves!
• In the 60s & 70s, Liz did posters for elementary school dances (before she was allowed to attend them) also for winter carnivals & special events (the computer has since taken over the “graphics” side of things). She organized the dance hall & did the table set-up.
• Later on, her friends liked the way she organized and displayed her accessories at home and thereby requested her help in using what they already had in their homes. They looked to her for help to de-clutter & to organize their space, as well as help them organize & accessorize their wardrobe. Then came the referrals.. • Liz prepared houses for the real estate market before “staging” became a word and was promoted on these much watched TV decorating programs. • In the mid-1980s, she had illustrations & logos for many others but had neither business name nor any business cards to hand out. In 1985, this designing mind came up with a design in mind for herself; hence her company name Design’in-Mind • Liz has lived & operated her homebusiness in Vancouver, in Ottawa, and in Brockville since she moved here with her husband in 1994.
• Liz is a member of the Brockville Newcomers Club; the Brockville Women in Business; and is a volunteer at the Rose Garden Family Support Centre.
• She has written 4 historical booklets including a pre-Loyalist history of the Brockville area: In the Garden of the Great Spirit.
• Liz offers an alternative choice in decorating: she uses what people have in their home. Her business motto is to offer clients “Maximum Impact with Minimal Investment”
• Her business card depicts her free-hand illustration: a stylish lady holding a paintbrush who’s “brain waves” are clearly reflected in her sunglasses, ready with a design in mind. Are you happy with the way your home looks and feels? Do you feel the stress of being surrounded by too much stuff? Do you have an abundance of family pictures all over your house and wish you could display them differently?

Liz says that… “Decorating is a world of personal choices. There are no strict rules… but some broad principles should be followed. Design’in-Mind applies an ancient interior decorating procedure which is considered one of the hottest trends in real estate today. Ensuring continuity and harmony across the home, it offers new and existing home owners a basic, yet different, decorating technique” Liz can create a first impression that will make a lasting impression. She works with your existing furniture and accessories, to ensure that your personality remains untouched. Liz will.. • Maximize your space • Reorganize your living & working space • Make your home warm and inviting • Create a healthy & stress-free environment • Decorate for the holidays & special events Liz offers a great decorating alternative for: LOGO: The waves • Existing Home Owners in the sunglasses signifies the creative • Apartment / Condo Dwellers brain waves. • Home-Based Office / Business • Real Estate Vendors / Buyers • Real-Estate Agents / Brokers who want to show the best possible features of a home • Retirees who are downsizing • Seniors who are contemplating a residence in a restricted space setting
Selling your home? Often, a “staged” home sells ten times faster than a similar competing yet cluttered home. Staging is done to create an illusion: it’s the process of organizing, rearranging, and preparing a home for sale. The goal is to show buyers the best features of your home, the spaciousness of the floor plan, and the ample supply of storage that your home has. - We can also review floor plans for new homes and help you make alternate decisions.
