Design Consultations
Personalized Design Services
We can work with you through any phase of creating a home. Our services are typically offered at a combination of fixed and hourly rates. We also offer a day rate option as well as financing with prior approval. And, we provide perks for our preferred builder and realtor partners!
Concept to Completion
We can make your new construction, remodel and renovation plans a reality. No matter the project, we will save you time, money and sanity by guiding you through critical and costly home decisions.
Room-by-Room Design
If a full home overhaul is more than you want to take on at the moment, we are happy to work with you to update one room at a time.
Staging and Decor Services
Sometimes we all need a small update to refresh our home (or maybe even increase listing appeal). This could include a handful of new home accessories, a few furniture pieces and art work.
Showroom and Selections
To bring your dream to life with confidence, we know it’s important to personally see, touch and feel your selections. That’s why we built a custom showroom with exceptional custom cabinetry, countertops, window treatments, lighting, flooring, tile, carpet & rugs, paint options, furnishings and so many more home accessories!
1. Questionnaire
Help us understand your style and priorities by completing the new client questionnaire. A member of our team will be in touch to schedule your design consultation.

Testimonials
“The Artful Provisions design team took the interior of our new home and business, the Ellijay River House Bed & Breakfast, and turned it into a welcoming sanctuary for our guests – who constantly rave about the interior! We can’t say enough about these wonderful design experts who after in-depth consultations, totally changed the look and feel of the home while using many of our original furniture pieces. We couldn’t be happier!”

She has worked for several architectural firms specializing in commercial design, and for the past 20 years her design work has been within the residential realm. She appreciates and recognizes the history, beauty, form and lines of all design periods. Her favorite styling is that of a curated and eclectic blend of design and uniqueness. She also finds joy in a touch of whimsy. Laura believes true success is measured only by the satisfaction of the client and the happiness it brings to them.
Charlene Tittle
Charlene’s career around Atlanta has given her joy for decades, but the North Georgia mountains were always calling. It was only a matter of time. When presented with the invitation to join the Artful Family it was an easy transition. She is thrilled to be surrounded by such a talented team and live in a Hallmark Movie Town everyday! Her friendly approach and humor keep our team and clients smiling.

She and her husband moved to Ellijay to enjoy nature, serenity by their creek with their dogs. She brings fresh ideas and creations to kitchens and cabinetry with any client.
Pam Holman
Pam was born and raised in Panama City Beach, Florida. Before moving to Ellijay, she worked for more than 30 years alongside contractors and developers for condos, resorts, restaurants and luxury homes in the Florida panhandle. Pam’s family has always vacationed in the North Georgia and North Carolina mountains, and in 2017, they decided to make Ellijay their permanent home for “retirement.” She explains that “the beaches will always be home but the mountains were calling. We had to answer that call.” Pam and her husband Jerry have one son and daughter-in-law, Jeremy and Jessika. They love hiking, biking, camping and exploring the beautiful waterfalls in the area.
Ashley McGowan
Ashley began her design career in events. She spent 15 years building one of the top wedding planning firms in the Southeast. During her time as a wedding planner, Ashley refined her skills in spatial planning and working hand-in-hand with clients to develop design plans that meet both their aesthetic and budget preferences. This extensive experience has been the perfect transition into project coordination and home design with the Artful Provisions team. Ashley lives in Ellijay with her husband, two young children and three dogs.
