When was the last time you focused on YOU and made your health + home a priority? I WANT TO HELP YOU MAKE THIS POSSIBLE! Are you feeling burnt out and tired? Not sure where or how to begin? You know that taking care of your health & family is so important, but you feel stuck at home working and or teaching your kids remote learning. QUESTIONS TO CONSIDER FOR A REFRESH:

- Who will utilize the room or new space? How much area are you able to dedicate for your desired space? Do you need a declutter or a full remodel?

- What pieces do you know you need & what will you keep that have you been utilizing the most? Are you open to learning about new ideas?

- When you think about your future home space, do you want it to reflect a particular look, or simply blend into a greater look and feel of your home in general? These are just a few questions to consider when planning your home design space. I’m a multi-passionate Interior Designer + Lifestyle Coach who combines the most energetic practices to redefine a home decor and healthy habits that create more balance of energy in your health & home!

❤ THIS is why I love what I do at KD Designs!

It's about so much more than creating a logo or website. It's about helping small business owners find their vision, build confidence, and bring their dreams to life!

I recently received this incredible 5-star Google review, and it truly made my day!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Highlights from her review:

"Kim took my business that I started on a whim and turned it into a COMPANY! She revamped everything, including choosing a new company name! I was overwhelmed by the thought of marketing and didn't even know where to start! At first, I answered most of her questions with, 'I don't know.' I was embarrassed!

Kim took my uncertainty, said, 'Watch this,' and hit the ground running!! A week or so later, we got together, and I was just in shock. Literally speechless! She came with a beautiful portfolio of my new business, including a website, social media, swag, car wraps, logos, and a thoughtfully chosen color theme!

Kim made me feel empowered! She supported me every step of the way! Kim took my very sad, basic setup and gave it a VIP makeover! Business is booming! We are taking new clients weekly! I couldn't be more thankful for everything Kim has done for my company and me!"

❤️ To my wonderful client, THANK YOU! Watching your confidence grow right alongside your business is exactly why I love what I do!

✨ BEHIND THE BRAND: JS Buildworks ✨

Every great business deserves a strong foundation—and that includes its BRAND!

This week's spotlight is on JS Buildworks , a business I had the opportunity to help build from the name up! 🔨

From creating a new business name, logo, and taglines to developing a cohesive look across social media, print materials, branded apparel, and a new website, this was a complete brand transformation!

And THIS is why branding matters.

It's not just about having a great logo. It's about making sure every place your business shows up tells the same story, reflects your professionalism, and builds trust with potential clients.

One of my favorite parts of what I do is helping business owners turn their vision into something they're proud to share with the world.

New Name. New Look. One Cohesive Brand. 🤍

✨ That's what it means to build a brand!

✨ MAKE A SPLASH. MAKE AN IMPRESSION. MAKE A CONNECTION! ✨

Last night, I had the pleasure of attending Sip, Shop & Socialize at Throttle Car Club in Scarborough, surrounded by an incredible group of women-owned businesses, entrepreneurs, and community supporters!

Even better, the evening brought everyone together to support Pittie Posse's Pet Pantry and help provide food for pets in need. 🐾💕

I LOVE events like this! The energy, the creativity, the connections—and seeing how different businesses bring their brands to life.

It also reminded me of something I share with my clients…

Your booth is more than just a table. It's your storefront for the day!

Whether you're attending a vendor fair, expo, conference, or community event, you have just a few seconds to catch someone's attention.

So how do you make people STOP, LOOK, and want to learn more?

✨ Make your branding recognizable. Your colors, logo, signage, and marketing materials should all tell the same story.

✨ Create visual interest. Add height, layers, textures, and creative displays that draw people in.

✨ Make your message clear. Can someone walking by immediately understand what you offer?

✨ Give people a reason to engage. A demonstration, sample, giveaway, or even a great conversation starter can make all the difference.

✨ Make it memorable. What will people remember about YOUR business after they leave?

And here's the best part: You don't need a huge budget or an elaborate setup to make a BIG impression!

At KD Designs, I love helping small businesses think beyond the tablecloth—from booth concepts and layouts to signage, marketing materials, and all those little branded details that make people take notice.

💡 Have an event coming up? I'd LOVE to brainstorm ideas with you and help create a booth that not only looks beautiful but gets people stopping, connecting, and remembering your business!

Because showing up is important…but HOW you show up makes all the difference!

✨ BEHIND THE BRAND: ✨

Branding is so much more than a logo or a website.

It’s everywhere your business shows up: your business cards, social media, messaging, website, marketing materials…and even your event booth!

Today I’m sharing a behind-the-scenes look at a booth I designed for my client, Mindi Moran of Coastal Bodywork Co., for an upcoming event. 🤍

As Mindi continues to grow her business, we’ve been intentional about carrying her brand through every touchpoint, so whether someone finds her online, picks up her card, or meets her at an event, they experience the same Coastal Bodywork Co.

And THIS is why branding matters.

✨ “People are noticing my branding everywhere I show up—and having everything finally feel connected has given me so much more confidence as I grow my business.” — Mindi, Coastal Bodywork Co.

That means so much to me, because my job isn’t simply to make things look pretty. It’s to help my clients feel confident and proud of how their business shows up.

And next week, Mindi will be showing up with a booth that looks and feels like HER. 🤍

That’s what it means to build a brand.

Are you a real estate agent—or do you know someone who is? 👋

What if you had a creative partner who could help your listings shine before they ever hit the market?

A house doesn’t get a second chance at a first impression.

This week, I had the opportunity to partner with real estate agent Ruth Rayburn Summers to help prepare a stunning three-story coastal Maine property just steps from the beach for market.

Four bedrooms. Three bathrooms. Spectacular views. A truly special home.

Behind every beautiful listing photo is a lot of work that buyers never see—editing, styling, rearranging, adding thoughtful details, and creating a space that allows people to imagine themselves living there.

✨ Swipe to see a little before-and-after transformation.
As I sat on the beach today reflecting on this project, I realized how much I love being part of this process—the moment when a home’s potential comes to life.

This is why I’m excited to introduce Listing Prep + Design Services through DeMado Designs Co.

I’m not a traditional stager who simply brings in furniture and walks away. I partner with agents and homeowners to make listings market-ready—from the initial consultation and prep plan to styling with what you already own, sourcing key pieces when needed, preparing for photography, and helping bring the final vision together.

My goal is to provide a flexible, high-touch approach that helps agents showcase their listings beautifully while helping homeowners feel supported through one of life’s biggest transitions.

Because when the right team comes together, a house becomes more than a listing…

It becomes a place buyers can picture themselves calling home.
Thank you, Ruth, for trusting me to be part of this beautiful project. I’m excited to see where this partnership goes!

If you’re a real estate agent looking for a creative partner to help your listings stand out, I’d love to connect.

More than staging. A partner in getting your listings market-ready.

Today I had the pleasure of meeting up with our weekly group of powerhouse business owners at our TBD Connections coffee hour.

One of my favorite parts of these gatherings is learning what people do, who they serve, and how we can support one another.

This week's 'Marketing Minute' question I shared was:

"What's one thing you dread having to do every year?"

The overwhelming answer?

TAXES. 😅

Why? Because we worry we don't have everything organized, we're missing something important, or we might get audited.

That got me thinking...

Your business is being audited every single day.

Not by the IRS—but by potential clients.

Before they ever contact you, they're looking at your:
✨ Logo
✨ Website
✨ Social Media
✨ Photos
✨ Messaging
✨ Overall Brand

And they're deciding:

Can I trust this business?
Do I understand what they do?
Would I hire them?

Your brand is your first impression—and first impressions matter.
I love helping small businesses with brand reviews, refreshes, and rebrands so they can confidently show up and stand out.

How would your brand score today?

I've created a FREE Business Brand Audit Checklist to help you find out.

What's ONE area of your brand you'd like to improve?

07/22/2026

One thing I've learned from working with small businesses over the years is that people don't always connect with perfect logos, fancy websites, or polished marketing.

They connect with people. 🥰

The businesses that stand out aren't always the biggest or the loudest. They're the ones that share their story, show their personality, and make it easy for others to understand who they are and how they help.

Whether you're posting on social media, updating your website, or networking in your community, don't be afraid to let people see the person behind the business.

Your story, your values, and your experience are often what make someone choose you over someone else.

A good brand isn't about looking like everyone else.

It's about being memorable because you're genuinely you.

What's one thing about your business journey that people may not know about you?

Happy 4th of July 🇺🇸

Wishing you a long weekend filled with sunshine, slow moments, and time with the people you love most.

06/30/2026

This long weekend has me reflecting on what I’ve truly loved building with KD Designs - Creative Studio.

As I’ve grown my new brand and worked with business owners and homeowners, I’ve found so much joy in helping bring clarity, balance, and intention into both their spaces and their brands.

There’s something really powerful about simplifying things—whether it’s a home, a brand, or a message—and creating more room for what matters most.

And for me, that’s been time with my family. I'll be out of the office Friday-Sunday, walking the beach, at a BBQ + watching fireworks!

Wishing you all a beautiful 4th of July weekend filled with the people and moments that matter most. 🇺🇸✨
