About Me
Hi, I’m Terri—designer, creative soul, furniture mover, and firm believer that home should reflect who you are, not just what’s on trend.
I’ve been married to my best friend for nearly 33 years, and together we’ve raised three grown children who are our greatest joys—and now, we have a granddaughter who makes life even sweeter. After 17 years in interior design and running a full-time creative business with ElizaGrace Paperie, I’m turning my attention to the place that inspires it all: home.
ElizaGrace at Home is where I share the real-life journey of transforming our builder-grade house into something softer, cozier, and more tailored to us. It’s about shopping my home first, thinking more creatively, and trusting that little flicker of nervousness when I try something bold—because that usually means it’s going to be really good. I don’t have all the answers when it comes to decorating, and I love that. There’s no such thing as a mistake when you move a piece of furniture—and it never talks back anyway.
I never want my style to grow stale, and I genuinely love learning from others—whether it’s a new design tip, a fresh perspective, or just seeing how someone else makes their house feel like home.
Here you’ll find stories of spaces coming to life, favorite Marketplace finds, paint colors I’ve obsessed over, and quiet corners that feel just right. I’m so glad you’re here.
The Things That Would Be on My Trivia Card
I prefer a chai latte over coffee—always.
Costco’s vanilla sheet cake? Could eat it daily. Not kidding.
I was crowned Little Miss Bemidji in 1976
I met my husband in 6th Grade band.
Exploring cities over lounging on beaches, every time.
I’ve never met a sofa table I couldn’t move… twice.
