Two Hens Styling & Design originally began as Two Hens and a Dresser a few years ago when the mother-daughter team Julie Peyton and Michaela Barrett rented a booth in an antique shop on the square in Columbia, Tennessee. They sourced furniture and decorative goods from flea markets, estate sales and even offered some handcrafted pieces for a curated farmhouse look. While they absolutely loved doing it, their college pursuits—Michaela's undergraduate and Julie's graduate degree—limited their time. They subsequently closed the booth, knowing in their hearts it wasn't the end.
Fast forward to today, and at the urging of friends and family, Julie and Michaela officially launched a home staging and design business and tweaked their name to Two Hens Styling & Design. They both have a love and eye for home styling and design, and Julie had previous professional experience as a home stylist and new build design consultant. They are passionate about the art of "home" and devote themselves to helping clients find their own style.
