We have a community garden here in East Ocean View and yesterday was a clean up day….Thank you to everyone that came out to help…..Suzie and Mike Kellison, Chris Lutz, Dan with Operation Blessing (thanks for the photos), Steve Zollos, JoAnne Merinar of Bon Secours, Dave, lots of neighbors and others from the community. Thanks to those of Operation Blessing that came but their names slip my mind….(forgive me)…You are appreciated. It truly is a blessing to give back. Lots of smiles and laughs….It really is what life is all about! Helping others at U&I Home Decorating and Staging, Deborah

Landscape Design on the Lafayette River

U & I has completed an exterior design for a returning client. I can’t think of anything this designer loves more than a returning client and referrals. We had a long hard job ahead of us but with lots of planning, researching, sub contractors, and ingenuity the job is almost complete with a few minor details to be worked out. Of course, with all designs things flux and change once the job begins and quick decisions and solutions can be brought together to please the client. I am happy to say the clients are thrilled with their new view of the Lafayette.

U & I Home Decorating and Staging owner Deborah Lutz had the honor of helping out and adopting a vegetable and flower box in the Community gardens built by Bon Secours, Operation Blessing, Home Depot, and community neighbors. We all take care of and tend to the garden as a community. It has been a wonderful experience to be a part of giving back. Read about the amazing garden and it’s progress in the two links below. One is a quarterly magazine by Bon Secour and the other is our Sunday compass here in Norfolk, VA.
