Belonging Is Home

Belonging is not where you end up. It's where everything begins.

Before we can become who we are meant to be, we must first know that we belong. We must feel rooted enough to trust ourselves, hear our own desires, and create from our own nature rather than someone else's expectations.

That is why color matters.

Coloring is one of the first ways we learn to belong to ourselves.

Children do not choose colors to impress anyone. They choose them because they feel right. Without hesitation, without comparison, without fear of getting it wrong, they color the world as their own.

In doing so, they practice something profound:

Trusting themselves.

Creating something that belongs to them.

Becoming.

Most of us do not lose that instinct.

We simply learn to doubt it.

The Color Baggage Experience is an invitation to claim that trust, and create a beautiful place in this world, starting with your home.

Whatever we harmonize, we magnetize.

Feeling Whole

“Gretchen, what a great concept you have here. I just purchased a home and was seeking guidance on how to unify my new house with paint… No one else really attempts to help you with a whole house concept. I have followed your process…”

New Way of Seeing

“I finally decided to stop and use Gretchen’s advice!!!! I should have done this first… I am just stunned by this awakening in color choosing for my walls!! This was a completely new way for me of choosing color and the results are fabulous…”

Liberating Choices

“Dear Gretchen… I can not tell you how much you have inspired me to add color to our home rather than going with the flow and paint it all in neutral colors.”

Everyone wants to come home—a destination where beauty, comfort, and ease are personal. Felt rather than seen. An invitation for the world to become part of their palette.
