Wallpaper, Window Treatments & Château-Level Vision — with Samantha Williams
What do Pasadena mansions, Parisian flea markets, and scratch-and-sniff bananas have in common? Just another totally normal day on Every Day’s a Train Wreck. 🤷♀️
This week, Marley chats with interior designer (and fellow wallpaper fanatic!) Samantha Williams about the actual reality of building a design business, creating spaces with soul, and saying “yes” to a dream French château gig… from an email she almost deleted. 🙃
From navigating historic preservation laws to shopping for copper pots in Paris, they dish on all things design—plus what it’s really like working with your husband (spoiler: he's an engineer), managing client emotions, and investing in your own brand without losing your sanity (or your savings account).
Inside the Episode:
— How Sam went from federal funding reports to French interiors ✨
— The $10,000 gamble that built her business (hint: it’s not ads)
— Why estate sales are low-key the best design school around
— Tips for decorating when your wallet’s not vibing with your Pinterest board
— The truth about burnout, big projects, and client crazytown
— And yes… Marley volunteers to party plan at the château for FREE 🇫🇷
Whether you’re reimagining your living room or dreaming of a Parisian powder room, this episode proves good taste isn’t about price tags—it’s about perspective (and maybe a really good Persian rug at an estate sale).
