Meet Erin Ringger
Biography
Erin vividly remembers helping decorate her own unique attic bedroom as a young girl. With her grandfather and father, both trained as professional wallpaper hangers, they selected the paper that became a critical component of the room. Reminiscent of candy Nerds, tiny pink dots covered the slanted walls and arched ceilings. The entire room was definitively pink– either an old-school, hand-held eraser blush, or an overload of Pepto Bismol. A custom-built desk spanned the length of the room, creating both headboards and a workspace in a spectacular shade of bubble gum that would have made Barbie proud. Erin fondly recalls the moments spent with her mother and grandmother selecting fabric, cutting squares, and planning the perfect quilt layout for that childhood space.
Over the years, Erin’s style has matured and evolved. While she is no longer drawn to staggering amounts of pink, she continues to crush on color, delights in selecting the perfect fabric, and remains partial to wallpaper and superior custom furniture.
Priorities
Though color trends and home styles come and go, Erin has always valued her family. More than a few years ago, she received a Bachelor of Arts from Brigham Young University. Since then, surviving life with five active kids has taught her the virtues of durable crypton fabrics and exceptional quality furnishings.
Erin’s philosophy has always been that deliberate details elevate a room to make it simultaneously magazine-worthy and real-life livable. She also understands that not every home is a “view lot” with idyllic outdoor scenery, so she focuses on transforming every room to a “view spot” with personality and warmth that allow her clients to enjoy their unique view.
Regardless of budget at the time, Erin has prioritized curtains to frame her view from every window, in every home, in every state her family has lived. Yet she and her husband share Lonestar’s sentiment, “The view I love the most is my front porch looking in.”
Strengths
Erin excels at selecting fabrics and designing window treatments to enhance a room. Her approachable demeanor makes it easy for clients to collaborate with, as together, they strike a balance between stylish and functional. Rooms full of genuine personality ensure that her clients’ spaces remain unique, inviting, and timeless.
Towering pines and shimmering lakes in Hayden and Coeur d’Alene, Idaho provide the perfect backdrop to Erin’s passion for stunning spaces. Her designs reflect the area’s natural beauty through well-selected color, wall coverings, and art.

Philosophy
"I believe that deliberate details can make a real-life room feel magazine-worthy.
But I get it. Not every home has a “view lot” with idyllic outdoor scenery, so I like to focus on transforming every room to a “view spot,” with personality and warmth that allow my clients to enjoy their unique view.”
