### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Precola J, June 2018**

> Mary and her crew did an awesome job with my dining room and living room. Everyone that comes to my home loves my Custom made drapes. I loved how Mary really took time to capture the look I wanted. This company is a great company I am looking forward to our next project together.

**★★★★★ — tltozier, Aug. 2016**

> Mary has been a joy to work with!  She understood my style right away, and used 3d technology to help place my furniture before we even moved in.  She is very responsive to questions, budgets, and the needs of my entire family, in the process of making our home both beautiful and uniquely "ours."  Mary helped us with some furniture and rugs, all of our window treatments, art placement and purchase, plus hardwood floors and repainting the entire interior after closing and before move-in.

**★★★★★ — sangina23, Aug. 2016**

> Mary did an amazing job designing my entire Weddington home.  She was involved from the start of the building process helping with kitchen and bathroom selections and designs.  She has the vision and creativity to create a great design with functionality.  Mary will give her opinions and recommendations but always incorporates your personal style into the design.  She has a wonderful attitude and is fun to work with.  She took time to get to know us and our meetings became my favorite part of the process.  It was very helpful that Mary has access to a large selection of high quality suppliers.
> I would highly recommend Mary to anyone that is building or redoing a house or need any interior design services.

**★★★★★ — pianopgc, Aug. 2016**

> Our den and dining room needed updates to add more seating for gatherings in our home as well as a drapery to give us privacy from the roadway.  Mary Elliott of Decorating Den Interiors is truly a talented designer and was a pleasure to work with on this project. We met with Mary and she openly listened to our ideas on colors, flooring, draperies, and seating.  She took it from there and met with us once again to go over the plans.  She brought to us some ideas that we hadn't even thought of, e.g. décor for bookshelves, fireplace, lighting and walls.  Her ideas were fresh, new and she focused on our likes and dislikes and what we wanted for this update.  She gave us options for seating arrangements, and helped us to make decisions on fabric choices.  Mary was very considerate of our ideas, as well as our schedule.  We look forward to entertaining in our new den and dining room.  Our future plans are to update our master bedroom and it is to Mary Elliott that we will go to for her professional services.

**★★★★★ — wfaellaci, July 2016**

> Ms. Elliott was referred to me as someone who could help me down-size and manage my move from out of town to a smaller apartment in an Independent-Living community in Charlotte. She designed several floor plans using my existing furniture ( I did purchase a new smaller sofa) and accessories, listened to my preferences of color palette and window treatment and offered suggestions for customizing closets to maximize storage.  Because I was unable to be on site prior to moving, Mary supervised the entire process.  She sent me frequent updates and the project was completed on time. My trust in her judgement and creativity has not been misplaced. In just a few short weeks, I'm feeling “at home” and I smile when I walk in the front door.

**★★★★★ — scarbrough2003, March 2016**

> Mary came to my house several times to consult with paint colors, wallpaper and fabric selections. Her creative ideas and selections were just perfect to help update and complete my mini spring renovation. Mary's warm and friendly personality makes you feel so comfortable. She takes the time to address all issues and never makes you feel rushed. I just love her, you will too!

**★★★★★ — Jennifer Fagan, Oct. 2015**

> We love working with Mary!  She has been our go to decorator for almost 20 years at different stages of our lives.  She is willing to help and make things work depending on your budget.  We always get compliments on any projects she has been a part of in our home.  She is a very friendly, talented, and fair designer!

**★★★★★ — wernerverona, Aug. 2015**

> I really enjoyed working with Mary!  She helped me choose all new furniture, draperies and accessories for our apartment, and I love it all!  She was efficient, very helpful, and got everything just right!  I would highly recommend her.

**★★★★★ — dederaine, Aug. 2015**

> While I was living in California I contacted Mary Elliott to see if she would be interested in furnishing and decorating an apartment for me in North Carolina.  She said "No Problem"  Then I informed her that I wouldn't be around to be much help as I spend the winters in Arizona.  She said "No Problem".
>
> She has been awesome, doing it all and I cannot wait to see it all come together, hopefully in about 50 days.  It's been stress free for me, I can't answer for Mary.  All I can say is Thank you so much for being there for me.

**★★★★★ — Ryan Knight, Aug. 2015**

> I hired Mary Elliott with Decorating Den Interiors to remodel my mother’s home.   The project included upgrading a kitchen, master bath and general decorating of the home.  Mary took extra care in researching the project and presented us with several ideas on remodeling, furniture and window treatments.
>
> Once we made decisions on the various options, Mary got her team started right away.  There were some unexpected issues during the kitchen remodel, but Mary was quick to resolve the issues without any delay in the project timeline.
>
> Her attention to detail really stood out during the decorating phase.  She created beautiful window treatments that accented the wall colors and furniture.  She even added a few extra touches that were not part of her original presentation.
>
> My mother is enjoying her remodeled home.  I plan on hiring Mary again for a bathroom remodel in my own home later this year.  She was extremely professional and made the entire process free of stress.

**★★★★★ — bonnietozier, Feb. 2015**

> She is helping me design & decorate my apartment. She is so good at using colors that I like and giving me different options. She is great at coordinating the things I have moved here with new items we have ordered. It will be gorgeous when it is done.

**★★★★★ — kimvanvliet, Feb. 2014**

> Mary Elliott has made beautiful window treatments for 4 rooms in my home. Most recently, Mary completed cornice boards and shades for the window and french door in my kitchen. Mary has a knack for finding out her client's taste quickly and honing in on colors and styles that match not only the client's taste, but also bring out the best in the whole home. Mary has a flair for adding interesting detail to her work. My cornice boards have beautiful bead trim. I could not be happier with the work Mary has done.  Along with quality and creativity in her work, Mary also provides quick turn-around time. It is a pleasure working with Mary. I have already recommended he to many friends.
