Amy Lou is the owner and lead designer of Designs By Amy Lou, and starting in April, you can find her Wednesday nights at 10 pm on A&E’s Flip Wars! She has a passion for design and home staging, and that passion has her shaking things up on the west coast of Florida!
Amy moved to Florida from Dallas, Texas in 2015. She soon discovered the need in Sarasota and Manatee county not only for her passion for interior design, but also home staging. Real Estate is highly sought after in the area and realtors need the upper hand to get homes sold quickly and for more money. Amy’s first home staged in Florida sold within 24 hours! She was immediately hooked added home staging to her list of services.
Amy has also designed and remodeled homes for A-List celebrities in the area such as Marvel’s Black Panther star, Angela Bassett along with professional athletes such as 8-time Golden Glove winner, Scott Rolen.
Amy Lou’s favorite design style is clean & coastal with a hint of modern farmhouse. She loves the use of sea glass, blues, and crisp clean whites as well as adding a little bit of character and charm with custom furniture pieces. Her specialty is making dull spaces come to life.
In the staging and design arena, Amy Lou strives to make clients, as well as potential buyers, feel like they are “finally home.”
In between filming and designing for A&E’s Flip Wars, along with her many designs, renovation, and home staging projects, Amy enjoys quiet time with her three children and amazing husband James (who partners with Amy on many of her design and remodeling projects). She also enjoys traveling and volunteering at Bayside’s Dream Center.
