"Working with Angela was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. I was incredibly impressed by the depth of creative ideas brought to the table during our initial consultation. She really took the time to understand our personal style and day-to-day functional needs. What we appreciated most was her collaborative approach; instead of pushing a single design direction, she offered multiple options for layouts, color palettes, and textiles. The final space is both beautiful and functional. I cannot recommend Fresh Start Interiors highly enough."

"Helene was amazing! Our first time hiring an interior designer and I regret not doing this 5 years ago. She decorated my 13 month girls room from start to finish. Paint, crib, lighting decor, storage, cabinets, bookshelves etcâ ¦.she listened to all my needs and specific desires for my little girls room and exceeded my expectations. We walked into a completely finished room. She worked very hard to create our little girls room and even baby proofed the dressers for us because we asked. We got a crib that can transform to a toddler bed, the cutest chandelier/Fan combo, and amazing artwork. She even added in a personalized pink glittery wooden name as a gift and wallpaper which was absolutely beautiful and really made the room. Our baby now sleeps so well in her crib and we are so so grateful for Helene. She is really experienced and knows what she is doing and we are blessed to have met her"

"Tensor was able to rapidly digest the local building codes and produce high quality engineering drawings that passed permit review on the first attempt. The attention to detail was incredible and their engineering knowledge helped me plan for the unexpected, I will be using Tensor Engineering for all my projects moving forward."

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

Regular meetings, reviewing drafts, and providing input on materials help align the project with your vision.

You should always hang the lights before the ornaments because hanging lights on top of ornaments can cause some to fall off. If a light sits directly on top of an ornament, it can cause it to heat up and possibly change its color or cause it to crack. 

It’s unnecessary to tip holiday decorators, and most professionals won’t expect it, but it’s a nice gesture to show your appreciation for their work. If the expert goes above and beyond to keep your delicate decorations safe, or they’re hanging your exterior lights and putting out lawn decorations in freezing temperatures or inclement weather, a tip between 10% and 20% of your total will be appreciated. Large jobs that include interior and exterior work are also good opportunities to tip, especially if your expert is performing a rush job close to the holidays.

While finding a local interior designer whose portfolio you like and whose fees match your budget is important, they should always have appropriate qualifications. Some states require interior designers to be licensed, and most will have a degree in interior design and certification through the National Council for Interior Design Qualifications (NCIDQ). You can also consult our directory of interior designers to get started.

No, even if you have a vague idea of what you want, it’s a good idea to reach out to a contractor that specializes in outdoor kitchens for assistance. Professionals who have constructed kitchens for other homeowners can not only help you think about the functionality and convenience of your outdoor space—which many homeowners neglect—but they can also help you choose high-quality, durable materials that meet your budget and match the rest of your outdoor space. In fact, it’s often better to contact a contractor and get the ball rolling before you have a solidified plan for your outdoor kitchen.
