A slower way home

Waterwood Revival was born from the belief that home is more than the walls that hold us. It’s a living reflection of who we are, where we’ve been, and the stories we carry forward.

For me, that love of home started long before I ever owned one. Growing up on Waterwood Drive, I spent hours rearranging my dollhouses and wandering the aisles of Hobby Lobby, drawn to the colors, textures, and tiny details that made spaces feel special. Those early moments of play became the foundation for something bigger — a lifelong desire to create warmth and beauty through intention and care.

Now, as an adult building a home of my own in Tampa, I’ve learned that beauty isn’t just in the things we find but also in the moments we create: gathering around a table, lighting a candle, giving something thoughtful to someone we love.

Through Waterwood Revival, I hope to help others discover that same sense of connection and comfort in their own spaces. To remind them that design doesn’t have to be perfect or fast — it just has to feel like you. Because the most beautiful homes aren’t styled overnight — they’re collected, curated, and lived in with heart.
