### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Sharon Cook, Dec. 2022**

> Cheryl designed and managed a complete first floor renovation for us several years ago.  She did a marvelous job and we were totally pleased with the end result!  When it recently became time to update the kitchen, we knew exactly who to contact.  Cheryl helped us choose new solid surface countertops and tile for the backsplash that would compliment each other.  We could not be more pleased with our new-look kitchen.  It is my "happy place."  She is a joy to work with.  I would certainly recommend Cheryl to anyone interested in a redecorating or remodeling project.

**★★★★★ — Mike and Kim Tonovitz, Dec. 2022**

> We had a wonderful experience working with Cheryl. She helped us with our foyer, dining room, living room, and bathrooms. She took the time to get to know us and our desires to create a thoughtful and cohesive design that truly enhances our home and lives. Cheryl is a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend her design services!

**★★★★★ — Marliese Merrick, March 2022**

> Cheryl is AMAZING!!!  My husband and I worked with her to update our foyer, dining room, master bedroom  and master bath.  She is prompt, thorough, organized and really listens to you.  Her attention to detail is impeccable.  She pulled together a plan/design that we never could have done on our own.  At our second meeting, she came with all of the beautiful samples and options for us to choose from.  It was better than Christmas morning!  She had to work with some of our existing furniture pieces as it was not in our budget to replace them, and her design made those pieces look great.  She even spec’d. a few things for other areas of the house to make everything flow and go with the updates.  When my husband is happy and in awe of someone’s work, you know it is great, and he was blown away by the transformation Cheryl did in our home (as was I).  We thoroughly enjoyed working with Cheryl and hope to work with her again sometime.

> Mark and Marliese

**Comment from CHERYL BARKER Interiors:**

> Mark & Marliese, it'd be an absolute pleasure to work together again with you whenever the timing is right. We DID have some fun together didn't we? I can still see your beaming smile Marliese with what we accomplished together, and Mark's was right there beside you!!! Thank you for sharing your kind and happy thoughts with others, so appreciate your time and LOVE to see our successful journey together shared :)

**★★★★★ — cgribben, July 2021**

> Cheryl rocked it again!  I called on Cheryl in 2017 for help with redoing my family room and she created a wonderfully warm space that my children and I love to hang out in together. There wasn’t a doubt for me to call on her again in 2021 when I was ready to redo my dining room, living room and entrance. She is so organized, listens to your wants, and sees things you’d never think of that just make the finished space even more special. We love it! I am so grateful for her guidance, professionalism and kind heart.
> Thank you!!!

**Comment from CHERYL BARKER Interiors:**

> Awe Carrie, so grateful for you as one of my treasured clients. The honor was mine in being called back to create some more magic for you :) Your lovely updated home matches your personality and lifestyle. I can still see your teens' smiles as I was putting finishing touches up in the house. Thank you for sharing your valued thoughts and appreciation!!

**★★★★★ — Laurie Masood, March 2021**

> My husband and I are building a house on Keuka Lake.....which is a huge undertaking as anyone who has ever built a house would know.  I know when I like things and when I don't like things, but really didn't have any idea of how to start making some sense of all my Pinterest ideas.  Several people recommend Cheryl to us so I contacted her to help get me organized and relieve my stress.  All I can say is that she was amazing!!  She first emailed a VERY thorough questionnaire which asked us about our likes & dislikes, our budget, our family size, whether we had pets and how we saw ourselves using the house.  Once that was completed, she met us in person to go over the questionnaire and to ask further questions.  She asked us about things we hadn't even thought of.  We then met at her house about a month later where she presented us with 3 - 4 choices for everything from paint colors, to hardwood floors, to carpet, to countertop choices.  For everything, it showed that she really listened to us as the choices were perfect.  We made so many decisions that way.  She really helped narrow down what could have been a very overwhelming amount of choices to just a few.  Cheryl is very organized, communicates fully and timely with everything.  She also pays close attention to whatever budget you're working with.  It was a pleasure to work with her.

**Comment from CHERYL BARKER Interiors:**

> Laurie, such a pleasure working with you both! We accomplished ALOT together which ultimately will find you enjoying your piece of Keuka Lake heaven that is all "you"! Between the Kitchen design, Master Bath design, LVT, Hardwood, Carpeting, Railings, Tile selections and more... each specifically designed component complimenting each other in telling "your" story which will find you at home very soon. Can't wait for you to be in soon!!!

**★★★★★ — Peggy Martin, Feb. 2021**

> My husband and I enjoyed working with Cheryl! I was honest with her from the beginning that I like everything (all kinds of decorating) and it's overwhelming! I just never knew where to start. It was time to lighten up and purchase new furniture and accessories. We haven't redecorated in 20 years and it showed! Cheryl listened, was very budget considerate and was able to put together our rooms beautifully. Calming, peaceful, classy and relaxing. Thank you Cheryl!

**Comment from CHERYL BARKER Interiors:**

> You are most welcome and am so glad I could make such a difference for you! We took your home to a new level where it feels more like "you" and where you feel more at home in the spaces that now celebrate you both. Such a pleasure working with you!

**★★★★★ — HU-352369417, Dec. 2020**

> Cheryl helped my wife and I with a complete redesign and renovation of the entire ground floor of our house including a tear out/redesign of our original (1970’s) existing flooring, kitchen, bathroom, lighting and adding in custom entertainment cabinets and furniture in our open living area. Cheryl was such a pleasure to work with, guiding us along when we had difficulty with decisions, encouraging us to be comfortable with big decisions we knew were right, acting as a project manager with some items and letting us take the lead with other renovation aspects when we wanted. She was very organized, approachable, cost conscious of our budget and continually asked us questions about our style and likes/dislikes we never knew to contemplate and somehow found a design that was “us” that we never would have discovered on our own. She was able to take our wants, often time vague notions, and realistically turn it into a vision that works so well in providing the comfort and function to serve our family of five (plus dog). Our new living space is a joy to be in and we (including three teenagers) can’t even imagine what the house looked like before the renovation. We highly recommend Cheryl's services in approaching your designing needs. -Scott and Jennifer P.

**Comment from CHERYL BARKER Interiors:**

> Incredibly honored to be of creative service to another generation of this special family after already having redesigned their parents home. We brought this family's home to a vision that works everyday with comfort and is truly a "This is Us" home for these dear people. The home renovating is a given, the special relationships formed because of our special time together is another blessing!

**★★★★★ — HU-137205935, Aug. 2020**

> Our house is a large open plan and we had ceramic tile throughout the entire first floor.  Deciding on a new floor seemed overwhelming so after reviewing several designers we had Cheryl come out to look at the project.  Cheryl began by interviewing us regarding everything that could possibly influence the successful outcome of the project; our family size, entertaining style, how we used the different areas in the house, our tastes in decorating, our budget, how long we planned on staying in the house, and more.  She is extremely thorough.  After documenting everything and taking pictures, she researched flooring for us and returned with samples for us to look at.   The materials she chose were exactly what we were looking for but couldn't put together for ourselves.  She recommended a very reputable flooring company, Messner Flooring, and the whole project came together perfectly.  We are extremely satisfied with Cheryl's work and how easy she is to work with.

**Comment from CHERYL BARKER Interiors:**

> Thank you for your valuable time to share with others how our relationship evolved in creating great results that fit you so well! You already had a lovely home, what we did was complement what already worked, yet add more beauty with better functionality that fit your needs today and for tomorrow. I remember well how you told me my great reviews from others helped you in your decision to proceed with me... I have great pride in now having YOU as one of those treasured reviews. Again with such thanks!!!

**★★★★★ — Suzie Zenkel, Sept. 2019**

> Cheryl's vibrant personality and passion for decorating is contagious!  She is just as excited about decorating your home as you are, and she presents design options so that you can never pick wrong.  Cheryl was just what we needed to turn our newly built house into a warm and welcoming home.  I can't wait to have her come back to help us do more!

**Comment from CHERYL BARKER Interiors:**

> Thank you so much Suzie for sharing your happiness and kindness! We did take your beautiful new build and add YOUR personality to it with the furnishings that function so well for you and decor that suits you to a "T". It would be an honor to accomplish more of your goals in the future :)

**★★★★★ — Jackie & Gary Finlayson, June 2019**

> We just had Cheryl come to our home to help us "pull together" our house.
> We wanted a more streamlined look for our living room. Cheryl helped us pick out a new couch, art work and area rug to bring our living room up to date.  She really listened to what we liked and nailed it.  She used her time efficiently and kept our budget in mind. We absolutely loved working with her. You feel like you've been friends with her forever.  She made us feel comfortable, she wasn't pushy and she made sure we would be happy with the final product. We love our new living room--it's stylish, modern and streamlined.  Just what we wanted.

**Comment from CHERYL BARKER Interiors:**

> I can still see the twinkle in this client's eyes with delight in their new surroundings! Such a joy knowing they are more at home with comfortable furnishings and visually being updated. Thank you for your kindness in taking time to post your happy thoughts!

**★★★★★ — Lisa Morrow, Jan. 2019**

> Cheryl’s true talent lies in her ability to combine aesthetics and functionality to create a room that not only looks stunning, but works well for our whole family. Sometimes the redecorating process can be a little overwhelming, with so many directions to look in and options to choose from. While Cheryl is versed in countless brands and products, she’ll help you stay focused on the solutions that best fulfill your primary goals. She is easily able to coordinate elements from different sources, and her follow-through is on point. Comfort is key in her designs. She has an eye for detail, and a great sense of spatial awareness. Our family room has an unusual layout and has challenged multiple designers in the past, but when Cheryl looked at the space, she immediately knew how to orient the room for optimum balance and flow. In addition to being a stellar designer, Cheryl brings wonderful energy into your home. She’s bubbly and upbeat, but honest and entirely genuine. Her passion for her work is both obvious and contagious. We are absolutely thrilled with the final results, as well as with the designer who delivered them!

**Comment from CHERYL BARKER Interiors:**

> Your heartfelt thoughts are so appreciated! Knowing others are truly at home in their space with both functionality and aesthetics is why I love to do what I do :)

**★★★★★ — Jane Pedersen, July 2018**

> Cheryl, always the consummate professional, was prompt, thorough and organized.  She strived to accommodate all of our needs and desires into the project. She obtained bids from the various contractors and worked tirelessly to assure that each would complete his work in a timely, efficient and precise manner. She understood the need to maximize value without sacrificing quality. Above all, Cheryl is always positive, upbeat and cheerful. She is a pleasure with whom to work and our kitchen/family room area is absolutely beautiful!

**Comment from CHERYL BARKER Interiors:**

> Thank you so very much for your kind thoughts and review! We came a long way on our journey together, and look forward to being even a greater asset to you in the future with implementation of our Master Bath design in "Phase2", whenever that timing becomes right. Smiles all around knowing you and family are loving your new space!!!

## Community Q&A

**Q: I love this room makeover!** *(in Photo Questions)*

I saw several other room updates on your Houzz page and love your finished spaces. Can you share paint colors?

A: Thanks again for being a fan :)
The white of the fireplace we matched to the contractor's brand of cabinetry, the light beige wall paint was used throughout the whole 1st floor. Any color you are considering, be sure to get larger samples to make educated decisions as the change in light can change how you see a color.

**Q: What a change for the better!** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you share the paint colors for the cabinets and brick fireplace? I have a similar family room and I just love what you’ve done to this space.

A: So glad you like this room... one of my favorites from over the years :) I believe we matched the white to what the client had already used on trim throughout the house to create a cohesive feel from new to old spaces. Would definately see larger samples of white before you choose... Couple suggestions would be Sherwin Williams colors: Pure White, Pearly White, Extra White, Highly Reflective White, Alabaster. Good Luck!

**Q: What color quartz counter is this?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Torquay and Brittanica
