Creating Livable, Beautiful Interiors
We’re Passionate about Interior Design
Common Thread Interiors was founded with the belief that everyone deserves a home that not only looks beautiful but also feels right. Our journey began when our founder, Erin Zierfuss, realized that many professionals struggled to bring their interior design visions to life. With years of experience in the design industry and a passion for creating harmonious spaces, Erin set out to bridge this gap.

Good, Better, Best.
Good, Better, Best Is the driving force behind the Showroom. We want to showcase as much furniture as we can tastefully fit into our space and inspire you. In the showroom, you’ll be able to see and feel the difference between the three different price points we offer, and we will walk you through what is different on the inside of the furniture and the difference in how the pieces are made.
Meet Erin Zierfuss
Erin’s heart belongs to Maryland’s eastern shore, where she lives with her husband, Karl, their three children—Mackie (13), Tills (11), and Bo (9)—and their two (soon to be three) dogs, Peppa and Thatcher. A lifelong resident of Chestertown, Erin treasures her family and community.
In 2018, Erin began working with her mother, Elaine Bowman, at Village House in downtown Chestertown. Together, she and Elaine reopened the store. However, Erin saw the need for a place to buy quality, custom furniture. This inspired her to pivot the business model and showcase larger furniture pieces. Erin and Elaine continue to work on projects together, and have now added Ann Widener, Elaine’s sister who owns Peake House in Annapolis, continue to visit furniture markets together.
At Common Thread Interiors, Erin and her team provide high-quality design solutions, preserving the legacy of custom furniture in Chestertown. The focus on personalized service and American craftsmanship transforms clients’ homes into beautiful, timeless spaces. Erin’s story reflects her passion for design, dedication to her community, and ability to balance a successful business with a fulfilling family life.
