Design Your Happy Home


Header Image_Design your Happy Home

They say home is where the heart is

But what if your home doesn’t reflect your heart?
You saved, you sacrificed, you worked hard, and you finally made buying your dream house a reality. (How good does it feel to have a place to call your very own, at last?)

And now you’re oh-so-ready to ditch the mismatched madness that’s been serving as your “décor” for the last few years, and transform your home into an intimate and inviting space where you’re proud to host friends and family . . .

A place you happily invite the in-laws over to for Sunday dinner, where you get to show off your made-for-dinner-parties dining room, while basking in the warm glow of your mother-in-law’s compliments on your home’s effortless style . . .

A place to entertain your best girlfriends on Friday night, where they marvel at your chic living room with its understated, comfortable elegance and perfectly curated mix of accessories, furnishings, and personal mementos that emit the perfect relaxed, yet sophisticated, vibe . . .

And most importantly, a haven to come home to at the end of the day, where you can breathe a sigh of sweet relief as you curl up with a cup of tea and the last few pages of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in your beautiful living room sanctuary, with its calming color palette and that statement chandelier you indulged in that adds just the right touch of polished glamour . . .

I call this the “Empty Home Syndrome.” The house is yours, but your heart is not in it.

The problem? Right now it’s all just a dream.
Because the truth is, you don’t have thousands (& thousands) of dollars to invest in pricey interior design services.

But the do-it-yourself route isn’t the answer either. Scouring design boards on Pinterest, reviewing 832,618 living design photos on Houzz, and looking through that big stack of decorating magazines you’ve been saving for years has left you feeling overwhelmed by the million-and-one decisions that still need to be made, and you’re still no closer to a coherent design plan.

What’s a design-savvy homeowner on a budget – who’s ready to create her dream space NOW – to do?
Here’s the thing: You can create a beautifully designed home that’s a joy to wake up in each day, without going the DIY route or spending the equivalent of your house down payment to make it happen.
Great design doesn’t have to be complicated or costly.

Whether you moved in your home last week or 20 years ago, I can finally help you create a house that feels like home.

I am here to tell you that YES, YOU can live in that beautiful home that you always dreamed of living in without costing you an arm and a leg!
"The main issue I had was finding a layout that would work for my room; it was tricky, as I wanted to change a very formal living room to a very casual one. I was thrilled with what Christine came up with. We use the room a lot now, it’s so great!! That was the goal and its been achieved. Before the makeover no one ever entered the room – well only me to dust and clean it each week – how very sad! Christine just made the whole process stress free and so much easier to tackle. This room had me stumped for so long! I felt so reassured knowing someone with the knowledge, creative vision and experience could help us out! Christine was very professional and super lovely, so easy to work with and I loved everything she suggested. She gave us lots of ideas and options without making me confused or my mind cluttered. She also understood what we needed as a family and she got ‘my style,’ which was important to me as well. Christine had some great ideas that I would never have thought of! She was patient in understanding our needs first, which made the whole process so much easier! It was so wonderful working with Christine and I felt such relief as this room was a tricky one to change around. We love our new hang out room – we use it a lot and will enjoy and use it often for many years to come!"

But first, If you're like most people, you are probably wondering who I am and how I can help you?
Who Am I and How I Can Help You

"Christine is always evolving as a designer by constantly researching new products and styles. Without a doubt, anyone will attest that Christine has all the traits of a good Interior Designer: she is empathetic, a good listener, has a great sense of style, is not afraid of color and is hardworking and detailed oriented. Anyone who is thinking about choosing Christine to design their home, will after one meeting, realize that she is the type of person to cater to your needs, rather than designing for herself, but will inspire you with her creation and add some real sense of style to your interior!"

Hi, I am Christine Tse , a New York City and London based Interior Designer with more than 10 years of experience in designing beautiful homes for my clients and now I'm going to show you how to do it yourself!    

I have seen too many people struggle with hating their homes, and it hurts to watch a proud homeowner move into a house that they threw all their savings into... and 3 months later… hate every single corner… because it just doesn't jive with them. It doesn't speak to them and their soul…

The house is theirs but their heart is not in it!

It is a terrible feeling and I am on mission to help you overcome it.

I like nothing better than the sweet proud smile that spreads across the face of a homeowner when they finally see that their house is where their heart is!

Design Your Happy Home is not just about decorating, it’s about creating a lifestyle that will inspire you to live a happier and more inspired life.

What you will learn in Design Your Happy Home will apply to all aspects of your home, not just choosing the perfect color but your everyday life, and how to keep your home beautiful and inspired.

Design Your Happy Home will save you money and time by avoiding all the common mistakes that you will make.

You will create a beautiful home that will make your friends jealous and wants to be invited to your home every time.

"I know just enough about design to be dangerous. I also read a lot of interior design magazines and books, which is not always a good thing. I find that I like a lot of different styles, so it makes it especially hard to pull it all together in a cohesive look. Christine helped me stay focused. She found products and gave me new ideas about how to arrange furniture and accessories. Above all, she kept me on task so that I actually finished a room before jumping to a project in another part of my house. I also liked that she was willing to incorporate furniture and accessories I had already, freshening them with products she found. That itself saved me a lot of money."

Heidi KingWriter

All this will translate into:
  • Less stress because there is no guesswork wondering whether this or that color will work in your home.

  • Fewer frustrations because you won’t suffer from analysis paralysis. You will know how to choose the right things for your home.
  • More confidence because you know what will look good in your home.

  • More time spent with your friends and family, because you won’t be embarking on yet another home improvement project every minute.

  • More savings you can use towards your dream vacation in Aruba!

  • Homeowner pride, inviting your friends and family over with excitement for holidays and parties.

How Does Design Your Happy Home Work:

Design Your Happy Home is a step-by-step program with personal guidance from me as I walk you through each module. There are 10 modules in total with fun-sheets and fun-sources. Each module will be delivered weekly via email and in an online classroom with a weekly live Q and A session with me to answer all the questions that you might have!

I will be teaching you my decorating formula that I follow with my one-on-one clients so that you can apply them to any space that you want to decorate.

One of the great things about Design Your Happy Home is that there is no guess work.  With Design Your Happy Home you will take the guess work out of decorating, because you will know exactly what you need and what to buy. 

But the best thing of all is that it will save you money and time as soon as you start applying the design formula in the program.  

You receive all this for a one-time investment of $149.00

"We were working with an unusual layout with odd proportions, and needed some help to optimize the space and avoid costly “mistakes”. We spend a lot of time in our living room, and will find it both more functional and more aesthetically pleasing after this redesign. Working with Christine helped us to understand the best layout for our room, and why certain things worked or didn’t work. Even where we may choose to substitute a different piece than you chose, your design is a great “template” to guide our choices. It also helped build our confidence to see that many of our ideas were “on the right track”, and just needed some refining to work. I really like that Christine was willing to work in an open, nontraditional way with her clients and cater to a range of needs and budgets. I think there are a lot of people who appreciate good design and beautiful spaces, and would like some professional guidance, but want to remain in control of and be actively involved in the process. Before I found Christine, I met with a “traditional” interior design firm, and was really turned off by the interaction . . . for a “service” business, I was pretty surprised by the inflexible, “our way or the highway” attitude, and the clear message that working with “retail” sources was thought of as beneath them. In today’s economy, this seems really out of touch . . . I am much more impressed by someone with the vision and creativity to make affordable, accessible things look fabulous and unique, and believe that having good taste is not limited to those with both the means and the desire to buy only handcrafted originals and to-the-trade items. If I had a million dollar budget for this project, I would not have given them a penny. Getting off my soapbox now. I really appreciate that Christine is approachable, low-key, and gentle, yet honest in giving feedback . . . I felt very comfortable exchanging ideas with you. The process was easy, fun, and informative – I would (and likely will) do it again! I will absolutely recommend your services to my friends and family!"

Designing your Happy Home is not just another decorating course.
Now if you are anything like me, whenever I read about decorating, the #1 question that I'm asking myself is always - is this something that I am going to be able to translate to my home?
Here's the answer to that question:
  • If you are a new homeowner and you are at a lost about what to do
  • If you have been living in your house for a couple of years and still feel that it is still not there yet
  • If you are renting and you feel like it is time to upgrade but you don't want to spend alot of money
  • If you are embarking on yet another decorating project because your home just doesn't feel right yet
  • If you simply want to redecorate your home
You will have my design savvy by your side to guide you through my personal process to design YOUR happy home with confidence!

With my Design Your Happy Home program, you will get a step-by-step guide that will walk you through every aspect of decorating your home to reflect who you are.

You can use this to decorate one single space or multiple spaces.

I will show you how to create your own sanctuary and be happy at home!

I will personally be there from start to finish to guide you, support you and cheer you on!

This is what will happen when you finish the program:

When you walk into your home, you will feel so bathed in luxury as you look around your beautifully appointed home that looks like it stepped right off the pages of a design magazine.

Here is my personal guarantee to you:

If by any chance you don't think that this program will help you get there I will give you a full refund for the program within 30 days no questions asked.

In fact, this is what I called a "No Excuse" program that is backed up 100% by my personal guarantee. With a full money-back guarantee there is absolutely no risk on your part.

I understand; you are afraid that with your modest budget you will barely be able to decorate your home.

Here's the good news: You don’t need to be a millionaire to live in the house of your dreams.What I will be teaching you in the course will help you see what can be done with the most of what you have.

"Christine helped me decorate the main living area for a furnished summer rental. We had just moved into a new home, and found renters for our old place much sooner than we had anticipated. Summer had already begun, and they wanted to get in there as soon as possible. I was short on time and budget, and really needed help taking the apartment from its original metropolitan feel, to something more beach inspired. We needed to be able to coordinate new items with existing furniture, and didn’t have the luxury of repainting. In spite of all these conditions, Christine was able to successfully meet our needs with several simple, well thought out suggestions and resources. She did a great job explaining her rationale and goals for each element, and how each step would contribute to the feel and functionality of the space. We were sad to leave the old apartment, after seeing it looking so fabulous! Our renters and realtor continue to comment on how fantastic the apartment looks..."

Working with Christine was truly a fun experience! Christine has amazing personal style, but she does not push her own style preferences on you. Rather, she works hard to identify the precise look and feel you are aiming for. Sometimes I found it difficult to articulate what I was looking for, but Christine looked at photographs of rooms I liked and distilled the key themes and features that reflected my taste. Christine also worked within our budget—she suggested clever alternatives to higher end pieces, and passed along the savings she enjoys as a designer. Instead of suggesting pieces all from one store, Christine introduced me to a wide variety of NYC tradespeople and shops I'd never heard of, from Brooklyn antique furniture to handmade wallpaper. And when it came to making decisions, Christine always gave me several options, so I never felt pushed in one particular direction. She went above and beyond the role of a decorator by helping me interview contractors and reviewing their proposals. On top of all that, Christine is an absolute pleasure to spend time with—she is friendly, sweet, insightful and a great listener. I would absolutely recommend Christine Tse for any design project, large or small. I have no doubt that Christine will continue to impress her clients through her hard work, excellent value, and great personality.

FAQ

Can I use what I already own? Of course you can! You do not have to purchase new things if your current one is perfectly fine. They might be moved to a better location that will be more space appropriate for them.

Can I use the existing furniture? Absolutely! There’s no need to start from scratch. I’ll never persuade you to part with a beloved family heirloom or signature item — we can find creative ways to place and present “must-keep” pieces.

How much money do I need to implement this? It all depends on your budget and how much you can or willing to spend, and what you are looking to do with your space. It all depends on your priorities and we will go over your priorities in the course and find a way to achieve your dream home based on your budget. You don’t need to be a millionaire to live in the house of your dreams.What I will be teaching you in the course will help you see what can be done with the most of what you have.

What if I live in a rental? Living in a rental is not an excuse to not be living in a home that you love and inspires you! What you will learn from the course will be really useful for you too, even if you live in a rental.

I’ve never taken an online course before for decorating; how easy to follow will this be? Well I have made this ecourse very easy for you to follow. Once a week you will receive one lesson so that you have enough time to go through the material and implement it.

How do I know if I will be happy with my purchase? If you are not happy with your purchase within 30 days you can get a refund with no questions asked. I do stand behind my program and I know you will get tons of value from it.

What if I am design challenged and not the creative type? You don’t have to be a creative to decorate. There is a science to this and if you follow my lessons, you will have a beautifully decorated home in no time!
