About Karen

Redoux interiors started out of necessity. PRE – Internet, can you believe there was such a time?

As a young mom, we had very little “extra” income to create a beautiful home. I began scouring books about painting furniture, creating the “European look” of aged, old layered paint and started experimenting not only on my furniture but my friends who were willing to take a risk along with me.

Happy Sunday friends! What does it really mean to lose your life so that you may find it? I believe the world is infinitely improved for each and every soul when we ask ourselves: how we can contribute, how can we serve, how can we share our talents with others? 
.
When you forget your own insecurities, short comings, and worries about what people will think about you when you step out of your comfort zone, you are free. You are truly free to shine your light.
.
And trust me, every one of us has a light that needs to be shone.  Let your light so shine and glorify God, creator, whatever you believe.  Let your light shine, we all need it. 
.
Much love, Karen

Happy Sunday, friends. I had the incredible opportunity to spend a week with some of the bravest, kindest, and most giving women I have ever met. The Contributors to @theturquoiseirisjournal 
.
Spending time with women who help you dream bigger than you ever dared is scary, exciting, and necessary for growth. Do you have dreams you have not spoken out loud? Speak them out loud, write them down, and take a step each day toward that dream. 
.
What if people are waiting to receive what you have to offer?  How could you deny them your gifts?  We have been given dreams for a reason and are responsible for showing up and sharing our gifts. Each of us has a responsibility to receive those gifts from others.
.
What are your dreams? What are you holding back on? Your goals are not about you but what you will give to this world, your community, and your family. 
.
Don't let fear hold you back; you only steal from others. It's not about you; it's about what impact you will have on others. Together, we can achieve miracles in each other's lives. 
.
Much love to each of you miracle workers -Karen
