“The more I blogged about our home,” explains Tessa, “the more often I received emails asking if I would help readers with their own homes.” Initially, she limited her aid to friends, but when her youngest son started kindergarten, she offered her services to a wider audience. Several years later, her business is thriving, and she’s sharing her expertise with clients from coast to coast. Through the wonders of technology, much of her work can be done without ever leaving her house.
