Ruth was truly a pleasure to work with. I have a contemporary home that was modern looking when it was built. It was in desparate need of a revitalization. Ruth helped me set the tone for the living room by working with me to design the fireplace tiling. I sat with some samples she supplied before choosing. That dictated paint color and again she brought samples and we placed the cards next to the fireplace and I sat with them for ahwile before choosing. In additon it is worth noting that Ruth's sister works in the antiques business and so I was able to sell off quite a few pieces of furniture, lamps, and paintings that were no loinger the right fit for the vision I have for the house. The even helped me figure out the best way to restore the luster of a mid century modern piece I have and continue to use it. Ruth comes with great recommendations on reframing paintings which was very valuable. This is just the first phase of a major rehabilitation of my home. I am glad I chose Ruth to be there as a trusted advocate along this journey. It has been a pleasure to work with you Ruth! More to come....

Very friendly. Easy to share your views and opinions with.. Prices were more than we expected for the whole thing, more likely we werenâ t aware of how prices have gone up lately. Ruth is very nice to work with, she knows her stuff, but is open to what you want for your home.

Ruth was fantastic! I had my bathroom, hallway and stairs remodeled. She not only made what I had imagined a reality, she made it better than I could have ever imagined. The whole process was truly collaborative, I was a participant from the beginning, and Ruth always made me feel like I was her only client, responding quickly to my questions, and adding her own thoughts and experience, to take the remodel to the next level. Even better she clearly cared about not just the outcome, but my experience throughout the process. It became obvious, clearly she loves what she does, and it shows. I'm having my kitchen redone in a few years, and Ruth will be the only one who I call. I couldn't imagine anyone else to get the job done, in the best possible way!

Ruth was wonderful during our initial consultation. She gave us so many suggestions for room layout and helped us move furniture! I look forward to working with her on choosing window treatments and other design projects.

I called Ruth in a real bind - I had a painter in my home and did not like the color choices - I knew I needed help in a big-way! Ruth ANSWERED the telephone on the first call (being on a ladder at another job btw) and then we spoke again and she listened to my current situation and even first tried to help me by sending her a picture of the room (for no charge) ultimately she had to come to my home - and within 10 minutes had the color choices picked out for my family room, kitchen and mud room. The results were an awesome match and I am so happy. Also, she took the time to help fix up the design of my family room and did it with such warmth and kindness. I would recommend her in a minute!

I was looking for a little more direction from her in terms of design for marrying my living room and kitchen. She did help with reinforcing my choices for light fixtures but I felt like I needed more help even though she was here for 2 hours.

After a year of living in my partial kitchen/living/dining room remodel I will still highly recommend and use Tout Le Monde again. From the get-go they were upfront and realistic about the cost of the remodel- and also that my max budget will only get me so far- something extremely important to note. I was able to stay within my budget, get the necessary changes to my "80s grandma kitchen" and bring it into the modern world. Both my boyfriend and I work full time and after over a year of slacking I decided to hire an interior decorator and it was the best decision. Her recommendations regarding the granite countertops, kitchen table and wall and trim colors were spot on!! If my boyfriend would let me I would paint the whole house in the color of the kitchen and dining room because I love it that much!! I also thoroughly enjoyed working with her contractors especially the plumber and electricians... They were prompt, knowledgable and so nice you would have thought my boyfriend knew them for years. I eventually plan to use Tout Le Monde again to complete my entire house renovations.

We needed someone to help us pick out colors for our remodel and we hired Ruth of Tout Le Monde Interiors of Merrimack NH as a color consultant and she was wonderful! We needed help in choosing carpeting, tile, counter tops, and paint colors in several rooms. Ruth responded quickly to our inquiry and was able to come the next day. She was professional, courteous, very knowledgeable, and knows how to design very well! We would use her again in a second and we would highly recommend her for color consulting or any design project in the home you may have.

The owner is very knowledgeable and a very good listener. The contractors she partners with are skilled, responsible and courteous craftsmen. We did a kitchen and 1st floor bathroom overhaul as well as new furniture, lighting and draperies for the living room. I have been very pleased with the end result and would use them again!

"Our very small kitchen remodel was no less important than the much larger remodels Ruth has undertaken. There was the sense that our project was her only one at the time. She provided the guidance we needed when we asked, and, when we saw the results we were more than pleased. Phone calls and e-mails were answered the same day, and, she checked up on us when she hadn't heard from us in a while. We couldn't provide a contractor so she suggested one she uses. I'm here to tell you she partners with only the best. He is amazing! Customer service is alive and well. Ruth did everything we asked of her, and, her personality should get ten stars".
