About PAT SCHEPPE, Owner of “ROOMS TO ENJOY”

I have a talent and passion for seeing the potential of what you already own and reusing it within your space to create a home you will love to come home to. Years ago I did not know I was already LIVING GREEN... it would depress me when I would see the waste of useful items going to our landfills. I knew someone could use it or it could be refinished or repurposed and used again in their home or donated to charity. As the old saying goes “ONE MANS' TRASH IS ANOTHER MANS' TREASURE”.

REDUCE... If you hate it or no longer have a use for it - DONATE IT!
REUSE... If it's useful but outdated - change it, paint it, enhance it, rediscover it
RECYCLE... If it is a recyclable material, please - dispose of it properly so it can be reprocessed and reused and stop the growth of our landfills and create a better environment for us all.

Great design and decorating shouldn't cost a lot of money. ROOMS TO ENJOY can transform your plain or tired room into a “WOW” room using your own things, usually in just one day!

I am committed to making your home a stylish statement about YOU. Remember, redesigning is always more cost effective than traditional decorating which “starts from scratch” In the event you are just starting out and have nothing, I can assist you in picking affordable furnishings and decor using more panache than your cash.
