When it comes to interior design, I know what I like aesthetically (calming yet bold) but have zero scruples when it comes down to the actual execution. Luckily for me, my friend Erika Fueyo White just launched the Miami-based interior design business, Finished by EFW, where her mantra is “a finished home is a stylish one.” Erika helps you finish your home ā from your coffee table to shelfies to full-on interiors ā with her chic and elevated touch.Ā
Our first consult was over Facetime where I showed her I was struggling with the overall vibe of my built-in wall unit and coffee table. It felt sloppy and thrown together and I really wanted to showcase my new ceramics from Sicily. After soaking in the space, she hatched a plan and put together a list of a few additional items to purchase which she sourced. I love the notion that Erika is an equal opportunity sourcer ā because her keen eye can pinpoint treasures anywhere from Amazon to 1st Dibs. Some of my new additions are linked below.
On install day, Erika rearranged my existing items and added her own special flair. “Sometimes just shifting around pieces that are already owned brings new life to the space,” Erika says. The end result? A more cohesive, balanced, spacious and elegant space. Over at my coffee table, she took the tablescape from drab to fab in a snap. “A coffee table vignette is a great way to add color and interest to a space. I found an heirloom crystal box squirreled away in a cabinet and it’s now the perfect place to store remotes and necessities. Even what page a coffee table book is turned to can make a difference in the entire look of the table,” she adds.
And just like that my home is “finished.” Think graceful design juxtaposition. Itās minimalism and maximalism brought together in a harmonious way all thanks to Finished by EFW.

Iām loving this share! The idea of having a skilled eye on my current āsituationā without needing to accomplish a full redo sounds like someone (me) is getting a gift, immediately!
