The Finishing Touch Home & Office Interiors, LLC was established in 1979 by licensed designer Carrie Babington.
After eighteen years of continued growth, a beautiful Victorian home was purchased in 1997 and converted into the current retail showroom and design studio.
The retail showroom on the 2nd floor showcases a wide variety of furniture, window coverings, and accessories as well as our expansive design resource library.
