ABOUT US

Bethany

Bethany

I didn’t get into design through a formal degree—I got here by doing the work, learning on the job, and staying curious every step of the way. DIY Remodeling and hands-on design has taught me how to create spaces that aren’t just beautiful, but actually work for the people living in them.


I love helping clients uncover their style, make smart choices, and pull everything together into a space that feels just right. You’ll hear me say often, “This is your home—I’m not the one living in it,” because I truly believe design should reflect you, not me.


At DFW Design Co., I lead our amazing team and stay closely involved with your contractor to make sure everything goes smoothly. We’re here to bring your vision to life—and make the process feel a whole lot easier along the way.

When Bethany and I bought our first home, we didn’t have much of a furniture budget—so I decided to build what we needed myself. The first time I ran a piece of rough lumber through a saw, I was hooked. What started as a necessity quickly turned into a passion. There’s nothing like the smell of sawdust, the hum of the tools, and the satisfaction of turning raw materials into something both beautiful and useful.


These days, you’ll usually find me in the shop, working on custom pieces for our clients—or inside, where Bethany makes sure I stay on top of the business side of things (yes, that includes payroll and spreadsheets).

I’ve always been drawn to the way thoughtful design and soft materials can completely transform a space. If there’s furniture to source or fabrics to select, I’m all in—nothing makes me happier than helping clients pull together pieces that feel both beautiful and livable. I love guiding clients toward choices that not only look great, but serve a purpose—just like William Morris said: “Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.”


Outside of work, you’ll usually find me cheering on my two busy boys from the sidelines of a soccer, baseball, or basketball game. In my free time, I love live music, barre and yoga, a great meal (preferably with a glass of cab), and a bingeworthy show. My happy place? Anywhere my toes are in the sand and my favorite people are close by.

I didn’t set out to work in design—my background is in Labor and Delivery nursing—but after getting married and setting up our first home, I realized how much I loved the process. What started as a fun hobby quickly became a true passion. I’ve always been drawn to making things feel beautiful and welcoming, and I find so much joy in bringing out the charm and potential in every space.


I feel most at home when I’m decorating. My style leans toward simple elegance—nothing too complicated or overdone, just thoughtful details that make a space feel fresh, stylish, and lived in. It’s such a rewarding challenge to help clients see their homes in a new light.

I’m passionate about turning houses into homes—spaces that not only look beautiful but feel good to live in. To me, great design is about more than aesthetics; it’s about creating comfort, joy, and a sense of belonging for everyone who walks through the door. I love helping clients shape spaces that reflect their stories and support their everyday lives in meaningful ways.


When I’m not working on design projects or chasing after our two little ones with my husband, you’ll likely find me outside on a long walk, curled up with a great book, or enjoying a cooking or baking show.

OUR DESIGN PROCESS

Good design starts with great listening. While each project is unique, our process typically includes:


Discovery: We take the time to understand you, your lifestyle, and the way you want to live in your space.


Concept: We translate your vision into a clear, cohesive design direction tailored just for you.


Design Development: We refine every detail—curating selections, coordinating layouts, and preparing for installation.


Implementation: We bring the vision to life, so you can enjoy a finished space that feels like home.


Final Touches: After install, we walk through the space together, tie up any loose ends, and capture finished photos of your project.

A Note about Contractors...

DFW Design Co. does not handle any construction management for projects. But like any service, we suggest obtaining three quotes from three different contractors before beginning work. We are happy to provide you recommendations for General Contractors we have worked with and enjoyed. Just let us know!

Before meeting with Bethany, my bathroom remodel was not moving forward even after getting a bid with a great contractor. I had a list of about 20 things I couldn’t decide on - from tile layout to light fixtures. During our 60 minute meeting, Bethany helped me with every single item on my list & had suggestions that I would never have considered. When I met with the contractor a second time, my bid came back $3k cheaper since I could tell him exactly what I wanted! Bethany is so knowledgeable that she can come in at any point in the process and be as involved as needed. - Coppell, TX

DFW Design Co. was the piece to a puzzle that I couldn’t solve before. I didn’t know where to start and you showed me the art of the possible. Then, importantly, you also helped make it all happen. You all were responsive, creative and overall a delight to work with! We now have more confidence in future projects knowing you all can help us pull it all together. - Coppell, TX

Although I have worked with amazing interior designers over my eventful life that includes 10 homes, I never had the opportunity to solicit advice from a team so knowledgeable, kind and professional as Bethany’s until recently. After my husband passed away last year, I reluctantly selected a lower maintenance townhome. Bethany and her team worked with me to make this place my own; a place in which I am pleased to live and entertain. Their knowledge of colors, space planning, and furniture styles is unsurpassed, and they are conscientious about working within my budget. I would recommend them without reservation!

Bethany and the entire DFW Design team made our kitchen, dining, living and laundry Reno a seamless, organized and streamlined process. We loved their attention to detail, dining unique and fictional pieces to our home, and they were encouraging, patient and mindful of our needs and wants. This team felt like a family, and we can’t speak highly enough of what they helped create for our family of five. We can’t wait to work with them again!  - Coppell, TX

DFW Design Co. gave us such confidence in our home remodel and helped guide us through with such ease. Bethany helped simplify decisions using her both her eye for aesthetics and her skills in creating the most practical and functional designs. We are thrilled with the care and quality we found in DFW Design Co. - Coppell, TX

Bethany and her crew at DFW Design Co. are miracle workers. They helped us with a total remodel of our 1980s home. They were so easy to work with. They listened to us and helped us  determine what our style was when we didn't even know!  We love the results and cannot recommend them enough.

- Coppell, TX

I cannot recommend using DFW Design enough!  We put off remodeling our master bath for 3 years just because I didn’t know where to start and the thought of a renovation is daunting.  Once I had Bethany on board the entire process was so easy and even fun.  I knew the type of look that I was going for but had a hard time putting it all together.  She was so beyond helpful with creating a Pinterest board to narrow things down, going with me to tile shops to pick out the best and most cost efficient options and helping with all the small details that I didn’t even think about like size of tile, layout for tile selection, grout color, mixing medal finishes, etc.  She knew exactly what was needed during the whole process and helped me stay on top of things with our contractor so that everything was done exactly on time.  I will never do another renovation without DFW Design’s help.  Her knowledge and eye for detail is unmatched and I’m honestly so grateful for her help in making our bathroom dream become a reality!

- Grapevine, TX

I’d love to tell anyone who is thinking about using design services to meet with Bethany! From the beginning, I knew she would be a good fit for my first project. I say first, because it won’t be the last! She was efficient with her ability to understand our needs & style. We met with her before meeting with the general contractor and that helped us explain what we really desired in our renovation with the GC. She helped in all the design choices throughout the renovation. She communicated well with me & the GC both through messaging & in-person when it came to measurements and placements of fixtures, tile, etc. And it helps that she just an overall kind, easy to be around, good person! - Coppell, TX

We had an incredible experience working with Bethany, Rachel and Heather! From start to finish, they were patient, responsive, and consistently available whenever we needed guidance or feedback. Their creativity truly brought our vision to life.We undertook a major remodel - changing the entire layout of our kitchen and pantry, installing hardwood flooring, updating our primary bedroom and game room, and decorating most of the house. Every space now feels cohesive, stylish, and uniquely ours. Beyond their talent, they were simply a joy to work with, easygoing, professional, and genuinely invested in making our home beautiful. We couldn’t be happier with the results and would recommend them to anyone looking for thoughtful, high-quality design. - Coppell, TX
