Testimonials...

room makeover quiz...My wife and I are fans of the various home “make-over” shows on HGTV. Our attitude has been “Oh yeah – if you have $100,000 and about eight months you too can make your kitchen look like that!!” So it was with that kind of skepticism with which we engaged your services. All I can now say is, well, this is the first time in my life that I have ever felt compelled to write any kind of testimonial! (It’s also the first time I’ve ever felt compelled to use an exclamation point!) Carol, I never knew the meaning of the word “genius” until I saw what you did with our family room and our living room-dining room areas. We still have a difficult time believing that our house could be so beautiful, and by using most of the stuff we already had!! Thank you so much for showing us what “working your magic” could mean to us. May you never run out of rooms to retouch!!

Carol, Mere words cannot express the amazement I felt when I walked into my home last night. I was absolutely speechless! You changed a hodgepodge of different types of furniture and styles into a beautiful oriental-themed living room that looks like it could be pictured in a magazine. My room is so beautiful, yet still so functional - you have an incredible knack for furniture and accessory placement. I love my new red walls - they make such a dramatic statement and I even have a new dining area where there wasn't one before. Thank you very much for your hard work and creativity. I would not hesitate for one moment to recommend you with the highest accolades to friends and family.
With much gratitude, Amy, Cherry Hill, NJ


Dear Carol,
We were so thrilled how our living/dining room turned out. Combining two households of furniture is a challenge and the room lacked the comfortable elegance that I was trying to create. Now, the eye can take in the color, texture and the arrangement in a pleasing way rather than feeling like we are trying to force pieces together. I no longer have the need to recover the chair (because of color) or think about getting a smaller couch for the room. Every piece is arranged in such a way that they compliment each other. And your attention to detail was fabulous. My husband’s quote when he came home was “I NEVER EXPECTED IT TO LOOK THIS GREAT!…..AM I IN THE RIGHT HOUSE?!!!We can’t wait till you work your magic on our family room.

Dear Carol,
I absolutely love the redesign of my family and dining rooms! The redesign far exceeded what I could have ever imagined! I was very concerned that I didn’t have enough accessories for you to work with, but your "magic" made my accessories that I had work out beautifully. Your positive and enthusiastic approach to what you do made the entire experience a lot of fun from the consultation to the finished redesign. The rooms not only are more functional and attractive now but they seem larger as well. It’s been about 3 weeks since the rooms were completed and I still can’t believe that I live in such a pretty, cozy, interesting home now, all of which I attribute to your touch! I am ready for you to work your magic on the other rooms in my home!
Sincerely, Rita , Haddon Height, NJ


We are just so pleased with our new downstairs and wanted you to know how much we love it. As you know we purchased a home that was approximately 20 years old and it still had the same paint and wallpaper that the builder had used.

We were limited in money and just couldn’t believe how much could be accomplished with new paint, wallpaper and a few extra accessories. Cost was such a factor and you integrated our existing furnishings in a way that I would have never thought of. Your insight and eye for beauty is way beyond my abilities and you turned my dated home into something I could really be proud of.

I now look forward to having my friends and family over all the time to show off “my new taste in décor” and enjoy the compliments received. Thanks again for your patience and dedication to this project. We just love everything that you have done.

We have a small three bedroom house and a huge finished basement. My two children had been sharing a bedroom and the third room functioned as my husband's office. The basement was a large TV and playroom for our kids. Our downstairs room was so large it felt like wasted space, especially when we were so cramped upstairs. We decided to move my husband's office downstairs so the kids could have their own rooms. The room was still to big for a simple office, a desk and a couch or two would be swallowed up by the space. Thankfully, Luann and Carol came to the rescue.

I cleared my house for two days while they worked very hard for many hours. What I came home to exceeded my expectations. We were in need of creating functional space. They not only created two functional spaces, but each of those spaces were beautiful, comfortable, and filled with personality. Instead of simply being creative with their decorating, Luann and Carol were careful to make sure the rooms reflected the personality of our family. They were so inventive in their arranging. Anyone who has seen our "new" rooms has been amazed at the level of creativity these women brought into their work. They are original in what they do and the results make me feel so proud of my home. Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

You “ya ya” sisters have changed our lives. How can words express how it makes us women feel when our space becomes so fulfilling!! We truly are a body with many parts and we need each other to accomplish all that the Farther has created in us and given us on this earth__ and that is spiritual and natural. How blessed I feel that I have been given the honor of the company of such wonderful people in our lives. Your gift and loved express for the people you bless will always be a bright light in our memories and the effect will never be erased.

This is just a note to tell you much I am enjoying the redesign of the guest bedroom you did and how refreshed I feel just walking into it.  It is truly an inviting, calming place to be.  Working with only things I already had, and not spending a dime on any of the redesign, was an additional bonus.  Later on, armed with the inspiration, fabrics and look we discussed, it will gain even another look by using the toile fabrics.

 

Thank you again for your hard work, time, and WONDERFUL ideas to pull this room into a part of the house.  After clearing the clutter and things out of the room and then adding only the things that were needed, it became so much more a cohesive part of the rest of the house.  Again, it is a joy to see the difference this has made with a neater, much more workable space.

 

It has inspired me to tackle another room (the office) with a greater  fervor a couple of days after you completed the bedroom.  Mission: Organization, function, design.  It's working!
Linda, MS


You just don’t know how much I love it.
