"Words cannot express how thrilled I am with the work provided by Matt and his crew!! We had a complete renovation of the exterior of our home and it doesnâ t even look like the same place!! Matt took my vision and made it a reality! Communication was easy and regular. Matt even handled my unexpected changes in the original plans with no hesitation. The quality of work is superb!! I donâ t think I could have found a better contractor!! The exterior is done and I have no doubt who I want to hire for the interior!! Thank you Matt for EVERYTHING!! You guys are an amazing team!!"

"I have worked with Artisan Home & Heritage in my business to help me set up a sales area and also personally in designing my bathrooms. Working with Emily is so easy. She is professional and really knows how to mesh my wants with a great design plan that I could never do on my own. I highly recommend them for anything business or personal that you need help with a design or direction to go."

"Hiring Kitchen Tuneup to reface my cabinets was the best decision I have made since moving to NC approximately 3 years ago. I couldn?t be happier with my ?new kitchen?. The entire process from sales through installation was so stress free. They took care of every detail and completed the job in 3 days versus the 5 days originally projected. I would recommend them to anyone"

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

Professionals often use extra materials that aren’t included in traditional tree decorations, like pins and more expensive wired ribbon that can be carefully shaped. But even without these elements, you can improve your decorating by taking a few professional cues.

Always start by picking an overall theme, including colors, types of ornaments, and the overall feeling or message you want to create. Fluff your tree to its fullest potential, and include a generous amount of garlands, lights, ornaments, and bows to complete the look. Professional trees tend to be very “full” and well-balanced, with only a couple of ornament types to help the decorations flow.

An architect is usually involved in the process of determining the layout and structural features and requirements of the home itself, taking into account the local codes, climate, and materials needed to make the home structurally sound. Architects may communicate more with contractors and subcontractors throughout the building process. In comparison to architects, interior designers typically focus on the aesthetics of a home interior and possibly exterior, helping the homeowner decide on color schemes, textures, and materials to incorporate into the design. 

One of the easiest ways to save money when hiring a holiday decorator is to provide storage for your decorations. If you have the space, you can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars by avoiding storage costs through your professional. It’s also a good idea to provide as much direction as possible for your professional, as this can cut down on design services. Finally, you can pay for your decorator to take down your decorations at the end of the season, but packaging and storing them yourself will save money on labor.

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

While the terms 'interior designer' and 'interior decorator' are often used interchangeably, they represent distinct professions with some overlapping work. The primary difference lies in the scope of their projects.

An interior decorator focuses on the aesthetics of a space, making less permanent decisions about decor. Their work involves selecting colors, fabrics, furniture, wall art, paint, and other finishes to 'dress' a room and enhance its style.

An interior designer has a broader scope that includes a decorator's aesthetic focus but also extends to the structural and functional aspects of a space. Designers are qualified to plan layouts, make structural changes, and manage overall functionality. They handle permanent decisions regarding fixtures like cabinets and bathtubs, establish floor plans, and may hire contractors.

Due to the technical skills required, interior designers typically have formal education, certification, and may hold a license, which can result in higher fees. As a general rule, it is best to hire an interior designer for major remodeling projects and an interior decorator for projects focused on establishing or refreshing a home's interior style.
