She worked with us on our second home in John’s island pre construction. > She really listens to you and your ideas and has helped us create a beautiful coastal feeling home . Sandy is thoughtful and has an amazing eye. As a professional she has been thorough and very client focused. She has also become a friend who has helped us acclimate to our new environment and helped us out while away. I highly recommend Sandy! **★★★★★ — Cindy Lind, Aug. 2019** > We hired Sandy over the phone as we did not live here yet and had bought the house sight unseen. It started out as just furnishing the house and turned into a total re-do of the whole house. She hired everyone needed for the job and oversaw the complete renovation. She took our ideas that we submitted on Houzz and turned our ideas into a beautiful, stunning, dream home. Her vision was more than I would ever have thought of and her use of colors, fabrics and furnishings turned a house into a warm, inviting home. She even saw to minute details that made all the difference. She also became a friend for life. If you want someone to make your dreams a reality, don't hesitate to give her a call. **★★★★★ — Pamela Payne, Jan. 2017** > I called Sandy after 12 frustrating months of trying to furnish & decorate my new home. I'd made some poor choices on my own and used the advice of a couple of other decorators. The result was a very expensive, but unfinished mess. Sandy to the rescue! In just 3 months & working well within my dwindling budget, Sandy found the missing furniture pieces & helped me pull everything together with rugs, window treatments & pillows. Sandy has a great eye, but so most decorators. Where Sandy stood above the rest that I consulted with was in her professionalism. She was always punctual. She kept in touch. She voiced her opinion, but listened to mine. She was patient with changes. She seemed to always have my project on her mind and "found" me some great pieces. Her billing was always up to date, clear and fair. I hope I don't have to decorate another house any time soon, but if I do, Sandy will be my first phone call. **★★★★★ — charlestoncharm, Dec. 2016** > Sandra worked with us on several rooms in our Daniel Island home including redesign of master suite. We are very happy with the finished room. Sandra did a great job listening to what we wanted and came through with flying colors. She was easy to work with, friendly, receptive and we really enjoyed the process. Sandra is talented, professional and fun. Highly recommend! **★★★★★ — mhdantzler, Jan. 2016** > Sandra Ericksen helped us plan the renovation of our outdated kitchen. We were so pleased with her services from beginning to end. She patiently and expertly walked us through each step from choosing granite to light fixtures, meeting with the contractors, and putting on the finishing touches. We would certainly choose her again for future projects. **★★★★★ — jrumelyjr, Jan. 2016** > Our second home on the Isle of Palms was in need of a major facelift, a process that was accelerated by a burst water heater in the attic. Everything from flooring to wall colors had to be replaced as well as some very outdated furnishings in bedrooms, living areas and bathrooms. > I called Sandy based on her representative projects shown on Houzz as a good fit with my style preferences. I could not have made a better choice. > Living out of state, I very much appreciated Sandy's high level of customer service. She always accommodated requests to meet at the house or to view proposed furniture selections, often on short notice, and spent the time necessary to find "just the right piece" of furniture or a particular fixture. She listens closely and effectively translates a client's general sense of a desired look or feel into concrete and beautiful results, while also presenting alternatives one may not have considered that I often adopted. Equally important, she melds a nice sense of style with the practical producing a beautiful room that can also accommodate the rough and tumble of pets and kids. She was a wizard at producing a result in quality and look that far exceeded the allowed budget for the project which she did not exceed. I highly recommend Sandy > > Chip Rumely **★★★★★ — Joan Withers, Jan. 2016** > Sandy helped us renovate and decorate a downtown Charleston 1880's warehouse loft. It was extra challenging because we were trying to use some of the existing furniture. Sandy helped us sort through, make selections and paint and reupholster as needed. The end result was exactly what we were looking for which was an interesting mix of bohemian glam with a tinge of industrial. The new pieces she helped us select made a huge impact. > > What I loved about working with Sandy is that she made the whole process fun. Even the arduous parts of selecting fabric, wallpaper and paint seemed effortless with her seasoned eye. She is very flexible and able to work within all budgets. She is also extremely professional and communicates often and effectively. She met every timeline and always did what she said she would do. > > I would recommend her to anyone and would use her services again in a heartbeat. **★★★★★ — jmoulf, Jan. 2016** > Sandra worked with us on our personal home seven years ago and most recently a beach house. Her design knowledge helped create classic, sophisticated, yet comfortable, homes for us. Her expertise with colors and textures was most helpful when choosing paints, fabrics and furniture. Sandra's talents in design allowed her to work easily from start to finish on each project. **★★★★★ — jennandbryan, Dec. 2015** > My husband and I hired Sandy for a kitchen and dining room renovation. She was a dream to work with! Her taste and design ideas are exquisite and her personality matches! We plan on doing many more projects in the future with Sandy and highly recommend her. **★★★★★ — A Simple Tree Custom Picture Framing, July 2014** > This is my 3rd time using Sandy for designing and renovations. My first time using Sandy was for a carriage house apartment. I wanted a modern sleek look and Sandy steered me in the right direction for paint colors and spacial design. She did such a great job my carriage house was photographed for "Cottage Journal" magazine. She is a pleasure to work. **★★★★★ — Laura, July 2014** > Sandy was a pleasure to work with on our master bath remodel. She is very talented and the end result was better than I imagined. She listened and worked hard to stay within budget, giving us different pricing options along the way and making recommendations. She was very professional in working with us and the subcontractors, making sure that everything was done to our satisfaction. I also think that she would be able to work well with all tastes and budgets. The project took slightly longer than anticipated (as I think is often the case), but she warned us that might happen. So there were no surprises along the way, and the people she hired to do the work were trustworthy, professional and very easy to work around. It was a pretty large endeavor, moving walls and plumbing. The end result was a brand new, lovely bathroom, a large pantry, and a laundry room upstairs. We're very happy with the results. **★★★★★ — totaleesc, July 2014** > Sandy is a joy to work with! She understands the style and type of rooms we hope to create and works with both our current furnishings (+ new ones) and within our budget to produce AMAZING results. We have used her services many times over the years -- and she has adapted and updated the palette and plan each time. Her ideas are fresh, yet classic, and very family friendly. I would not consider working with anyone else -- she is simply the best! ## Selected projects - [DI Update](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/di-update-pj-vj~7090615) - Location: Charleston, SC - Photos: 5 - [Edisto River House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/edisto-river-house-pj-vj~7090594) - Location: Edisto Island, SC - Photos: 5 - [Mod Style House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mod-style-house-pj-vj~7090607) - Location: Mount Pleasant, SC - Photos: 4 - [Trad Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/trad-home-pj-vj~7090591) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Weims Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/weims-renovation-pj-vj~5727755) - Location: Charleston, SC - Photos: 6 - [Dunes West](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dunes-west-pj-vj~5973050) - Location: Mount Pleasant, SC - Photos: 8 - [2019 CSOL Showhouse](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/2019-csol-showhouse-pj-vj~5727774) - Location: Charleston, SC - Photos: 5 - [South Battery Master Suite](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/south-battery-master-suite-pj-vj~5973074) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Park West](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/park-west-pj-vj~2191093) - Location: Mount Pleasant, SC - Photos: 4 - Description: New construction with detailed architectural moldings and family heirlooms to add character.

Thanks very much A: Hi Artistic Tile is the maker of the mosaic. We used Statuary & Rialto Marble in the mosaic. The subway is all Statuary. **Q: What is the over table lighting fixture? beautiful room!** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Thanks! We found it online, I believe at Lightology. **Q: The island "legs"** *(in Photo Questions)* HI there! Can you tell me a little bit more about the legs? Is it a leg built into the finish of the island? Do you know the manufacturer? Thanks SO much! Gorgeous! A: This was a custom solution for expanding the island. We removed the higher dining counter, extended the depth of the top and provided support by building what you are referring to as legs at each end. Any good carpenter/custom cabinet maker could recreate this look. Hope that helps! **Q: Size of room** *(in Photo Questions)* Size of room please? A: This room is approximately 12'x14'. **Q: Carpet** *(in Photo Questions)* What type of carpet? Thank you A: It's just a basic sisal rug **Q: I don' t have a question, but a comment.** *(in Photo Questions)* I love, love this bedroom. The headboard is gorgeous, reminiscent of a sofa. This bedroom has the feel of a living room and I LOVE it! A: Thanks for the kind words! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-09.*
