ABOUT CAITLIN PAPPAS HOME
HI, I’M CAITLIN PAPPAS
Founder of Caitlin Pappas Home
I’m a firm believer that your home should feel just as good as it looks. I curate timeless, approachable spaces that blend cozy charm with quiet luxury — always keeping real life (and real families!) at the heart of every decision.
What started as a passion project renovating our own home has grown into a robust interior decorating and all-things-home consulting business. Today, I help clients across all stages of their home's decorating journey — whether that means guiding a full remodel or crafting a clear, confident plan they can tackle themselves.
My goal is simple: to create spaces that feel deeply personal, beautifully functional, and built to last.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Whether you’re:
embarking on a remodel,
refreshing a single space,
or just feeling stuck and need a push in the right direction,
I’m here to help you move forward with clarity, creativity, and confidence.
You can book a one-hour consultation to get expert guidance, or start with a free discovery call so we can talk through your needs and see if we’re a good fit.
Let’s bring your home to life — together.
Where can I find information on products and materials used in your home?
You can find shoppable, styled spaces from my home on the LIKEtoKNOWit app. I’ve also published a few source guide blog posts that link to products I love and choose to use in my home, and you can find those in the “Blog” tab and in the site’s footer.
FAQs
What is your honest opinion about X brand or product?
As a matter of integrity and credibility, I only support brands and products I love and stand by. If I’m taking the time to write about or speak about a product on my Instagram account or here on the blog, it’s because I truly appreciate that product. This also helps people who follow my account to trust that my endorsement is genuine. There are plenty of brands whom I’ve declined collaborations with, or that I’ve accepted, only to receive the product and not be willing to endorse it publicly. If you’re still not sure I’m being honest about a product or brand, feel free to send me a direct message on Instagram ;)
What are your design rates, and do you have availability?
At this moment, I do not have availability, but every so often, my calendar opens up! Please join the waitlist and apply for an appointment. As for rates, consultations begin at $185/hour, and e-design packages start at $2,100 per room.
What should I look for in a fixer?
The term “good bones” refers to the framework of a house. When looking at properties you plan to fix up yourself, especially on a tight budget, ask yourself, “Does this house have good bones? Are the walls and foundation sturdy? Am I comfortable with the ceiling height? Does the house get enough natural light with the directions the windows face?”
Ponder these questions to start, and definitely look past things that are really easy to change, such as paint colors, floor materials, light fixtures, etc.
What are your favorite white paints?
Natural light plays a major role in selecting the best white paint. I always highly recommend sampling 3-5 shades of white by painting them onto your walls or applying a peel-and-stick paint sample. With that said, some of my go-to whites are Sherwin Williams Alabaster, Snowbound, Marshmallow, and Incredible White; as well as Benjamin Moore Swiss Coffee, Chantilly Lace, White Dove, and Simply White.
Do you ever negotiate on rates?
Depending on the scope of the project and the proposed volume of work, the retail value of the product (regarding brand collaborations), and other factors, I do occasionally offer discounted rates.
