Marblehead Designer Paula Gaull to Compete in “Designer’s Challenge” Event to Benefit Massachusetts Coalition for the Homeless Furniture Bank

Paula Gaull, owner of New Leaf Redesign in Marblehead, is one of three area designers participating in the “Inspired Repurposing Furniture Challenge & Reception” to benefit the Massachusetts Coalition for the Homeless (the Coalition) at its warehouse at 15 Bubier Street in Lynn on Thursday, November 1^st from 5:00 – 7:30 pm. The event will launch the partnership between the Coalition‘s Furniture Bank and the North Shore Association of REALTORS®. to help raise awareness of the Coalition’s furniture bank, which uses donated furniture to help furnish homes for those in need. 
During the event, which will be hosted by Susan Wornick of NewsCenter 5, attendees will watch as Gaull and two other designers race against the clock, to take on the challenge of creating three beautiful “rooms” using donated furniture from the furniture bank – in only 1 hour.  The evening will feature a raffle of furniture renewed by the designers and used in the rooms. “I am delighted to be part of this innovative event to raise awareness of the important mission of the Massachusetts Coalition for the Homeless,” says Gaull whose award-winning talents in redesign came in handy in fashioning her space.  The reception will offer appetizers and beverages donated by local restaurants. 
Come join this fun, creative event all for a good cause.  Tickets are $20 and will ONLY BE SOLD IN ADVANCE. For more information, visit www.newleafredesign.net.
