"I can’t say enough good things about finally getting to hire Amanda and watching her take my style, family needs, & preferences, and turn it into a reality! We were moving from an apartment to a house (while pregnant), and gave her a blank canvas of 7 rooms to design. Not only did she answer EVERY question I had on the daily, but she took on this huge project and delivered beautiful designs completely customized to our liking, while managing my budget, our closing/moving timeline, and picking out beautiful pieces that were even better when I saw them in person. The coolest part was watching her care for our home like it was her own. My husband and I are in love with our new space, and for the first time, want to spend our free time at HOME enjoying what Amanda helped bring to life. This was genuinely such a fun experience in what could have been a stressful new life event and I can’t be more grateful or recommend it enough. Just pull the trigger and book a call. It’s worth it 10x over"

"Ronda came to us through our general contractor. She assisted us in selecting our cabinets, counter tops, hardware and tile. She met with us multiple times at our house to work through the cabinet design. And we met with her multiple times at her studio and the tile shop to select our counter top and tile. Always ready to help, she is knowledgeable and has innate design ability. More than that, she can explain her design choices, yet is willing to discuss alternatives and work through the design process in a collaborative manner, bringing many ideas to the table – or kitchen, as it were. She listens to her clients and was able to translate our ideas into a comprehensive design. Throughout the process Ronda worked with our contractor and with us to make certain everything came together as planned. While there were a number of minor snafus, she was always there to make certain issues were resolved and to keep the job moving ahead. Cabinets and counter tops are a significant portion of the remolding cost. Cabinet manufactures are not all that interested in dealing directly with the customer. Rather, they work through their distributors. We purchased our cabinets through Ronda who has a strong working relationship with the manufactures she deals with and can easily work out issues. Thank you Ronda for a wonderful new kitchen!"

"I was not satisfied with the plan that BHR Interior Design gave. I don't feel that they listened to our budget and what the goals of our project were. They provided us with two options to move forward and only one of them seem to speak to what we needed. I gave them some of the same feedback that going with them gave some constraints that we were going to live with such as we were only allowed to use their cabinet company. Their cabinet company was remarkably more expensive. Why would somebody spend almost $50,000 on cabinet for a company who's never really heard of. Again, couldn't find anything bad about it but couldn't find anything good about it. It was just not attractive for my husband and I, we wanted to make sound decisions. The design was beautiful but it was just wasn't what we were looking for. It took a long time to come up with the two option. I will probably not use them again."

"I truly can’t recommend Gene and his team enough. From day one we knew he was the right person to renovate our 1929 bathroom, and it turned out stunning. They were professional, on time, communicative when anything came up, and so friendly to work with. I would hire them again and again. We absolutely love Gene!"

"Amazing! Michele is just wonderful! She takes the time to listen to the things that you like, and want in your home. After that she sends you multiple suggestions of ideas to design your room. I am so excited to see my new home come to completion. Michele has made this experience an exciting one. Her pricing is fair and she is available whenever you need her. My home is just about finished and I cannot wait for her to come in and add all the things that make the home look like something out of a magazine. If you give her a budget she will absolutely honor it"

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

Look to the professionals when figuring out the secrets to styling a bookshelf. Place decor in varying heights, mix colors and textures, and always create a balanced overall design by alternating where you place extra decor items. Most importantly, don't overfill the shelf. Leave a bit of open space to deter clutter.

Deciding to hire an interior designer or an interior decorator is entirely dependent on what you’re looking for out of your project and your budget. Interior decorators typically cost less than interior designers, both in hourly rates and overall project costs. 

If you want to add furnishings to your home but it’s otherwise set with permanent fixtures, an interior decorator would be best for you. However, if you are looking to remodel your home or are building a new home and would like help with permanent structures like cabinets, showers, and overall layouts, an interior designer is best.  

Hiring a high-quality interior decorator should always start with reading through online reviews to see the kind of experience other homeowners have had. You can narrow down your search and then ask the remaining companies for references and examples of their past work. It’s during this stage that you’re likely to find a company that suits your specific tastes and one that has experience with the style you want to bring into your home. You should consider calling references to ask about the process and the homeowners’ experiences with the decorator before, during, and after service.

Designing a building takes 2-6 months, depending on project size, required permits, and revisions.

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.
