Holidays Unpacked came about rather serendipitously. The Muller Family had just moved to Brevard, and like many families had decorations that spanned generations. Overwhelmed by the sheer amount, Mark and Kim Muller searched for help within the community to organize and display their beloved family heirlooms. While shopping at a local furniture store, Mark inquired about some interior design help, and was given a list of people who may be able to assist him. Shortly after, Kara’s journey began. Led by Mark and Kim’s family friends, Kara and two others from Brevard started work on the main house of the Muller’s new estate.

Shortly after beginning, they found that some pieces had not fared well from the weather and multiple moves. Without these items, it felt like something was missing. Kara remembered the days of her family Christmas festival and the wonderful bows she and her mother would make together. She made one to top the main tree and Mark immediately fell in love with the creative ingenuity that Kara brought to his family’s traditional decorations. He offered her a job decorating the rest of the estate on the spot and Kara’s hand tied bows adorned several of the trees and centerpieces throughout the property. She was also given the go-ahead to shop and curate a beautiful collection to enhance and replace the damaged decor. The Mullers were blown away. The dedication to detail that Kara put into their home inspired Mark to join forces with her to create a business that allows other families to experience the personal touch and care that was put into his home. After the holiday season, Kara brought along a team with her and they meticulously wrapped and packed all of the decorations, so that they could continue to brighten the holidays and hearts of the Muller family for countless generations to come
