A Special Thanks
Y’all. Seaside Haven… I lowkey have no words, but I’m going to muster up at least a few to post this blog and share the Seaside Haven Interior Design Transformation with you. It’s been a little over a year now since my first blog post for Project No. 101, and it’s crazy to see how far Hannah Moser Interiors has come.
First off, a special thanks to my Heavenly Father for blessing my business and providing for it in a way only He could. I also want
to thank Fortified Construction for bringing me onto this project — because there would be no Seaside Haven without them. And last but definitely not least, I want to thank Mr. and Mrs. McGinnis for being the world’s most wonderful clients!
The Journey
This project started with a meeting with Mike, Nicole, and Devin from Fortified Construction, which honestly was the best “first whole-home renovation kickoff" I could’ve asked for. They are truly some of the best in the business here in SWFL. Their friendliness, attention to detail, and professionalism made me feel instantly confident about tackling such a big renovation.
We walked through the outdated-but-so-full-of-potential home (yes, I snagged some before pictures), talked business, and left knowing we were about to create something really special.
Then I met Linda, our client, for the first time over email. I could feel her excitement from the way she ended nearly every sentence with an exclamation point! When I looked at her inspiration photos and started sourcing for the project, I knew it was going to be a dream. She trusted me completely from the beginning, and that trust never wavered. We collaborated all the way through — making choices, discussing what worked and what didn’t, figuring out the must-haves versus the “nice-to-haves.” And the final result? Even better than I could’ve imagined.
They loved it. We loved it. And y’all on social media loved it. Like all of my projects, I believe this one was sent straight from God, with His good will and blessings written all over it.
Faith
Now, even in the smoothest projects, there are always those little moments that test your faith. This was my first renovation project, so of course the doubts started creeping in: “You don’t know what you’re doing.” “You’ll never be good enough.” “You’re not cut out for this.”
But here’s what I’ve learned: those aren’t God’s words. Those are the devil’s attempts to pull me off the path God graciously put me on.
If you remember the lesson I took away from Project No. 101, it was to hold on to faith a little tighter the next time. And I can honestly say I did. Despite the doubts, I had way more faith in myself — and in God’s plans for Hannah Moser Interiors — than ever before.
How It’s Going
Looking back, I can see how much I’ve changed, grown, and matured as both a designer and a business owner. Right now, I’m wrapping up a few smaller projects, working on another full-home renovation (Casa Cobalt… y’all, it’s going to be insane), and prepping for furnishing + styling at Seaside Haven this fall. So much to look forward to, and so much to be thankful for.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: to anyone out there chasing a dream — DON’T GIVE UP! Hard work and persistence do pay off, even if it doesn’t feel like it in the moment. And hey, I’ll be praying for anyone who needs a little extra encouragement.
Next Up
The last time I wrote a project full-blown recap (Project No. 101), I didn’t have much lined up. This time? Totally different story. In fact, I’ve got something exciting to share with you…
Launching later this fall: our very first Christmas Styling Service! It’s all about giving back during the holidays while helping you deck the halls in style. Even better? 10% of every Christmas Styling booking will go directly to Toys for Tots to spread a little holiday cheer.
So, if you’ve been dreaming of that Hallmark-worthy holiday home, this is your sign to book when we launch!
If you’re interested in following my journey, why not subscribe? I’d love to build a community of people who are on this crazy road with me — learning, growing, and maybe even helping each other out.
Don’t forget to stop by our online store and shop our faith-based clothing and lifestyle products. And if you want to see and hear more from this purty face, come hang out with us on socials (@hannahmoserinteriors) or schedule a discovery call so we can get started on the project you desperately need to tackle.
Till next time...
xoxo,
Hannah <3
