About


Hi, I’m Molli Harris

Founder & Designer at Don’t Tell My Husband – Budget Friendly Design

I help women take control of their home design with confidence, clarity, and style — all without blowing the budget.

Most women are the real decision-makers in the home…

but contractors often rush you, overwhelm you, or ignore your preferences.

And husbands — even the sweet ones — usually say, “I don’t care, you pick,” until they suddenly do.

Sound familiar?

You’re not alone — and you’re exactly who I built this brand for.



❤️ My Mission

To make interior design:

  • Affordable
  • Approachable
  • Stress-free
  • Empowering
  • And centered around YOUR taste

Whether you’re refreshing a single room or selecting finishes for a full new build, I simplify everything with visuals, clear guidance, and budget-smart recommendations.

❤️ What Makes Me Different

  • I don’t push expensive brands.
  • I don’t judge budgets.
  • I don’t talk over you or make things complicated.
  • I do make contractors listen.
  • I do help you avoid costly mistakes.
  • I do prioritize YOUR vision.

You deserve a designer who’s on your side — every step of the way.
