Mochi Home is up and running!  It’s been one month since the launch of my new blog and it’s been a fun effort so far.  Thanks to all my friends and family who have provided me with photos and comments to help kick it off.

Here’s the pitch: Mochi Home offers practical decorating advice in the form of images. We hope to save you a few bucks, prevent a few headaches and inspire a fresh new look. Our motto here at Mochi Home is visualization before realization. 

I’m always looking for new images, so if you need a virtual makeover, submit an image.
