Hi, I'm Janet
Welcome to Rusty Fig Redesign
Sustainable Practices Are At tHe Heart of My Designs
My ECo Approach
Rusty Fig Redesign recycles and reuses most of the existing items found inside your home. Our eco-friendly mindset reinvigorates your space while repurposing your old items in a new light (and saves you money too).
If you’re in need of other touches, I personally shop at various flea markets and one-of-a-kind locally owned stores on your behalf to find the perfect pieces for your unique space.

Hi, there. I’m Janet, founder and owner of Rusty Fig Redesign, LLC.
Born in California, raised in Australia, and now a Midwesterner (odd how things play out), I’ve seen a lot of the world and have a deep devotion to protecting the incredible places I’ve been – and the ones I’ve yet to have gone to.
In an effort to making your home beautiful, I believe we should do so by keeping our planet beautiful too. That’s why I created Rusty Fig Redesign. I believe everyone deserves a beautiful space to live while implementing sustainable practices, ethically sourced materials and partnerships with locally owned businesses.
These are the things that keep me inspired
I grew up with free-spirited parents—my mother was an artist. No matter where in the world we lived, and no matter how broke we were, my mom made sure that every place we lived was beautiful.
We are affected by our environment. It can lift us up or keep us stuck. I want to create inspiring places for my clients to live. No matter how crazy life gets, you need a safe, cozy, and inspiring place to come home to.
