Meet the Family Face

Our shared devotion to artistic interiors defines every piece we bring into your sanctuary.

Jayme
I have literally grown up within these walls, evolving from a child selling lemonade to a full-time leader at the shop. Outside of work, my life revolves around my husband, Jason, and our four active children. My identity is deeply rooted in this store, our community, and my family. My greatest joy here is the genuine bond I share with our customers—over time, you have become so much more than patrons; you are truly an extension of my own family and dear friends.

Cortney
Interior design has been my lifelong passion. As Yesterday's Tree’s lead designer, I use my background in textiles and international fashion merchandising to create homes that reflect each client’s unique story, using color, texture, scale, and function. My style is inspired by fashion, textiles, architecture, luxury handbags, and the history I discover in my travels.

Breanne
I have been in the industry for 15 years and absolutely love everything "home." In the end, it gives me immense joy to hear stories and see photos of my clients enjoying their new furnishings. Knowing I played a part in making their house feel like home is truly wonderful.

Maggie
Having been raised right here in the North Carolina mountains, I eventually headed to NYC to obtain my Master's in Design from Pratt Institute. I have spent the years since 2020 creating bespoke interiors for clients across the Highlands and Cashiers region, a joy I now bring home to Asheville.

Peggy
Originally from McLean, Virginia, my deep North Carolina roots and interest in furnishings guided me to Asheville post-college, where I initially taught business at TC Roberson. From there, I transitioned into entrepreneurship by launching an unfinished furniture shop that has since evolved into our comprehensive home design destination. Seeing our growth alongside such a dedicated team and loyal local patrons fills me with pride as we continue our family-owned mission.

Emma
I truly love assisting my clients as they discover that ideal item to transform a house into a soulful home. By using vibrant colors and rich textures, I help you express yourself. Your joy and satisfaction are my ultimate reward.

Lydia
I thrive on finding beauty in design while collaborating with a vibrant team. I absolutely love getting to know my neighbors and helping them pick out the perfect pieces that make their houses feel warm and inviting.

Garret
I am the one working behind the scenes to keep our back-of-house running smoothly. Whether I am carefully receiving new shipments or meticulously hanging art and chandeliers, I take pride in ensuring every detail is perfectly in place before it reaches your home.

Nick
My journey in home decor spans three decades, beginning at fifteen while delivering couches and transitioning to a full career in my twenties. I have found true fulfillment specializing in window silhouettes here at Yesterday’s Tree. Collaborating with such a gifted team is an honor every single day. I am deeply thankful for our clients’ loyalty; to me, you are all extended family. With your incredible support, I look forward to perfecting your spaces for at least another forty years.

Robin
I’ve spent over two decades at Yesterday's Tree. I truly enjoy assisting others in creating cozy homes. Originally from the South Carolina coast, I now find my peace in these stunning mountains.

Tonya
I enjoy crafting custom spaces that truly reflect the spirit of my lovely guests. I cherish the time spent getting to know you personally and witnessing your unique dreams take shape within your home.

Alan
Every week I’m on the road to Hickory for upholstery pick-ups, and my dog Dolly is right there with me. She’s not a fan of spending the day in the store like our dog Maggie, but out on the road she’s the perfect companion.
