Betsy helped us with a home remodeling project. We transformed a 25-year-old heavy oak kitchen, master bath, and entryway. Plus, we added a mud room. I gave her a few photos and pointed out my “must haves” vs “wants” vs “don’t really care abouts”. She took it from there. I valued her design services because the remodeling industry truly offers a million different options. You can customize everything these days, so I needed someone to help narrow it all down and point me in various directions. What I valued most about Betsy’s services was her ability to modify my ideas and make suggestions for things I never would have thought of. Small modifications she thought of to either stretch my budget, enhance a look, or transform an idea into something more practical. I felt Betsy communicated well, understood my vision, respected my budget, and she really works well with local contractors and retailers to deliver the end products/services. I would definitely hire Inspired Spaces again and would recommend her to friends/family. **★★★★★ — Peg Haeger, Feb. 2017** > Our builder recommended Betsy, and we continue to appreciate that advice. Betsy took time to learn about our tastes and has been able to provide for us a variety of choices that we would have never considered on our own. She is also respectful of budget limitations, attentive to deadlines, and easily accessible for questions. Each time we walk into our new home we feel comfortable and grateful for her guidance. Most of all we have enjoyed getting to know her! ## Selected projects - [Monochromatic Warmth with an Edge](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/monochromatic-warmth-with-an-edge-pj-vj~1338910) - Location: Janesville, WI - Photos: 17 - Description: Retirement dream home for a couple moving back to their home town.
