Meet Carolyn
Forty years of getting every seam right.
Carolyn has been hanging wallpaper for four decades, from powder rooms and nurseries to designer projects and a home featured on HGTV’s Bargain Mansions. Clients call her work a nearly lost art: patterns matched perfectly, corners crisp, rooms left spotless. On social media, you’ll find her as the Queen of Wallpaper.
Her eye goes beyond the seams. Carolyn began her career in Kansas City, Missouri, where she earned her degree in interior design, and she has since worked with more than 100 interior designers. Add a background in home staging, and she can help you choose the pattern, scale, color and brand that suit the room, not just hang the paper you bring her.
She also knows the rental market from the owner’s side, so she can steer you toward papers that appeal to guests, hold up between stays and look great in listing photos.

What clients say about Carolyn
Carolyn is a top notch wallpaper installer. She has mastered a nearly long lost art. I love my coastal bathroom! She did a perfect installation.
Carolyn was a breeze to work with. She completely transformed my half bathroom with her wallpaper installation. She squeezed my job in just before a baby shower I was hosting and I can’t tell you how many compliments I received on the room.
Returned calls promptly, answered any questions we had, showed up on time, did a fantastic job of wallpapering our powder room, cleaned up after herself, and left us so happy!
