"We have been working with Cecy Gillen Designs for a full year now and have only positive things to say! We started out with a relatively small job updating and remodeling our primary bathroom and walk-in closet. Not only was Cecy's quote reasonable from a cost standpoint, but she was also so helpful with choosing fixtures, tile, paint/stain colors, closet design, etc. Not only is Cecy a very capable and organized business owner, she is also a talented, creative designer. Similarly, her team of craftsmen and painters are very professional; they care about the quality of their work and always leave the workspace as clean and orderly as possible overnight. As time went on, our project kept expanding to include every room in the house! There is hardly a task that Cecy cannot tackle, and she is always quick to respond to any request. We highly recommend Cecy Gillen Designs for all home refinishing and repair."

"I hired Deb to put together creative design ideas to renovate both my front entry living room and home office. Both rooms turned out fantastic. What a transformation. She also introduced me to an excellent contractor who I hired to do the improvements. Overall very pleased with outcome. Deb helped us transform our drabby front entrance to a coastal retreat. Our home office is now open, light and organized!"

"Victoria is amazing. My project was an immediate one with a small window of opportunity, and Victoria responded and was available exactly when I needed her. She worked long days with me to help my sister move into a 3 room senior living apartment. She managed to turn a jumble of beloved furnishings into a real home that was inviting, comfortable, and completely comforting in its familiarity. Her eye for space and utility is excellent, she listens carefully and is wonderfully sensitive to the client. She is gentle with her suggestions, always making sure that the client actually likes where things are placed and how they look. Victoria continues to work with us to place artwork and other items that will go on the walls, and then she will help finish the space with suggestions on curtains and bedding. She is also sensitive to price, and offers a range of solutions. I cannot recommend Victoria highly enough."

"Carlos and Luis, along with a few day workers, did a great job installing my new roof. They replaced and added copper as needed. They were professional and easy to deal with. I feel that their price was VERY competitive. Looking forward to utilizing their skills on other projects! E.Bednarz"

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

Professional holiday decorating services cost between $300 and $2,500 or more, with an average cost of about $1,500. The total price depends on the size of your home, the extent of the work, your location, and whether materials are included. Simple interior decoration may cost around $300, while a combination of interior and exterior work often totals around $800. For large or extensive design services, you could pay $2,500 or more. Common service costs can include: exterior holiday light installation ($400), Christmas tree decoration ($200–$600), interior holiday design ($50–$200 per hour), and holiday landscaping ($50–$100 per hour). Note that some prices may only include labor, not the cost of the decorations themselves.

A chandelier can last 10 to 50 years or more, depending on its quality, usage, and maintenance. High-quality chandeliers made of durable materials like crystal, brass, or wrought iron tend to have longer life spans. Regular cleaning, timely light bulb replacement, and proper care can extend its life significantly. Vintage or antique chandeliers can sometimes last for generations with proper restoration and upkeep.

If your chandelier is flickering, it may just need new bulbs or wiring, so consider repairs before replacing it. 

Before hiring an interior designer, ask a few questions to better understand how they work, what’s expected of you, and what they promise to deliver.

  • How long will the project take to complete?

  • What type of services do you offer?

  • Can you provide a project estimate?

  • Do you work with subcontractors?

  • Are you licensed or certified in this state?

  • Do you have a portfolio of previous work I can review?

  • May I contact your customer references?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • How do you handle payment?
