**★★★★★ — North Hill, April 2016**

> I have worked with Cindy for many years and love her creativity, solid design skills and her "can do" attitude.  She has done many projects for me - two Adirondack houses that have a very specific rustic style, and my suburban home, which is more traditional.  In all cases she found just the perfect fabrics, custom rugs, lamps and furniture.  She has also worked with my daughter, who had a much lower budget than mine.  Cindy brought together beautiful things at a much lower price point.   Cindy is respectful, a good listener, and delightful to work with.

**Comment from Cindy Hayes:**

> Thank you very much for your kind words, very appreciated!

**★★★★★ — edwtoole, March 2016**

> I have worked with Cindy on numerous Nantucket projects and have always been impressed by her great eye, attention to detail, and willingness to go the extra mile for her clients. Her team has completed numerous spec house projects that require furnishing down to the last piece of silverware (and on a strict budget). In addition to the spec house projects, Cindy has collaborated on the design of high-end vacation homes. She is great at adapting the interior design of a home to make it appropriate for the location, while keeping her client’s wishes in mind. Her team has the ability to coordinate the entire delivery and installation process seemingly effortlessly - a process that can be more than daunting on an island. The end result of Cindy’s projects (typically classic and serene) have always exceeded my expectations and left the client very happy.

**Comment from Cindy Hayes:**

> We really appreciate your great review, it is always a pleasure working with you!

**★★★★★ — Jane Canning, Jan. 2016**

> Cynthia was the interior decorator I used when we built a summer house and needed to furnish it from top to bottom.  She continues to help me with refurbishment in this same house.  She is a pleasure to work with and has a wonderful "eye" for decorating concepts.  She is also a very good listener and found fabrics and styles that truly reflected our family's' taste and worked well at being cost conscious and respecting our budget.

**Comment from Cindy Hayes:**

> Thank you for your outstanding review and feedback, pleasure working with you as always.
