In order to understand the needs and expectations of our customers, we take great care to work and communicate with every customer in a professional manner. Our reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job.

"My experience with Deborah Hannon started out very positive. She recommended things that really captured the look I was going for in my new home. She asked for payment up front and I made the mistake of overlooking this and paid for some window treatments for two rooms. When I got the quote for some wallpaper I was completely taken back on the pricing. Deborah said she would not upsell me on the prices of the wallpaper. I did some research and was able to find most of the wallpapers much cheaper. I also found an excellent wallpaper installer that was 75% cheaper than the quote from Deborah. So I told her I was going with the window treatments but not the wallpaper. She quickly responded to ask why and I was honest with the pricing was significantly higher. So I ordered soft touch Roman shades and paid in full on October 5th to be ready for a December 15th install. I was told 10 days for fabrication so thought this would be no problem. Communication was terrible after she had my money with excuses each time of why she took so long to get back. On the night before the treatments were to be installed Deborah called to tell me the soft touch mechanism was recalled and the would be manual cords. Then proceeded to tell me they would not be ready for installation. This happened on December 14. She said approximately 10 days. On Jan 9 when I had not heard I started sending emails of which were never responded to. I sent text messages never responded to. I made phone calls never responded to. Finally on Feb 2 I received a text stating they were ready and a date of Feb 6 to install. The installer who had came and put up some temp shaded came and completed the install a very nice young man. So I finally received my window treatments not exactly what I wanted and definitely a price much higher than I would have paid elsewhere. I have since read many reviews in the Cozy Cottage and it seems like I was lucky as several still have not received their product and even local businesses have commented on the dishonest business relations."

"We had Design Q&A create plans for our basement remodel for a contractor they often work with and were very happy with the results. Our designer Paul had several good ideas and he was able to provide additional thought and assistance during the actual construction phase which we very much appreciated. The style we were looking for was mid century modern with a bit of a modern twist. It turned out really good."

This service is a consultation that would help you with colors, fabrics, furniture and accessories. We could then evaluate your new place in Florida and use what you have if necessary! On the Florida side, help with paint colors, furniture and accessory shopping or helping to place your existing furniture or any other help you need to create your "home in paradise"!

"First vm (9/26) was not responded to; 2nd call (9/30) I called and got a person but again, I got no call from repair service. I then got a call from Caleb (10/1) asking if repair service had called me (no); I called again (10/5) and finally received a call from Kaitlin that evening to schedule an appointment. No service appointment was available until 10/29! This is so not acceptable to have to wait this long, through no fault of my own, to have a broken blind looked at!"

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

A hearth often looks like a tile or brick floor that juts out from and surrounds your fireplace. A hearth can be made of stone, brick, ceramic, or any other fireproof material. Brick offers a classic and traditional vibe, whereas a hearth made of marble or ceramic may lean more toward modern aesthetics. The most common depth of a hearth is 20 inches.

While it’s common to use the terms “interior designer” and “interior designer” interchangeably, they are two different professions, although some of their work can overlap. 

The most significant difference between an interior designer and an interior decorator is how in-depth they work for the project. Interior designers establish a floor plan, hire contractors, and make permanent decisions about the home, like cabinets and bathtubs. Interior decorators, on the other hand, make less permanent decisions about home decor, such as fabrics, wall art, and paints.

There are a few ways to cut down on your overall project costs for an interior designer if you want to update your home on a budget. Some ways to reduce costs include:

  • Purchasing your own products, which can save significant money on commission costs for your designer. 

  • Design one room at a time versus your whole home, to stick to a current budget. 

  • Only paying for a consultation, which will give you expert tips for DIY design. 

Longer curtains can visually extend the height of a space, especially if they are hung on a rod that sits above the window frame. Place the rod up to 20 inches above the windows to open up a space. And while sill-length curtains are still common, many homeowners today prefer the floor-length look for a more open and airy vibe.

Arched windows used to be most prevalent in more traditional home styles, like Spanish colonial and Gothic, but they are becoming increasingly popular in modern design. You’ll often find arched windows in new home builds across many styles, including farmhouse and contemporary architecture. This represents a more general trend toward more unique houses with interesting features.
