**★★★★★ — husingley, Feb. 2016**

> We worked with Jennifer to decorate our formal  living room and we are so pleased with the outcome!  She's a professional on all levels but also warm and thoughtful in her approach.  She was thorough, followed up on questions/concerns and was quick to respond to our emails.  We loved her style and the items she selected for our space.  We would definitely use her again and recommend her to others!

**★★★★★ — Anne A, May 2015**

> Jennifer did an amazing job decorating my daughters bedrooms, my screened porch and even found lighting that was perfect for over our bar.  She took time to listen to our exact needs and found them within our budget.  She was able to brighten our spaces even via new stools and accessories in our kitchen.  Highly recommend her!

**★★★★★ — dseidman60, May 2015**

> Jennifer was referred to me by a friend. I had an empty front living room where I wanted to create both a seating area and a small office area.  Jennifer has a great decorating style and the ability to design the layout of a room to best utilize the space. The end result was a room that is both functional and beautifully decorated. She definitely exceeded my expectations!
>
> Jennifer made the process very easy and took care of every detail.  She is very organized and was conscious of  the budget we discussed at the beginning of the project. I have received numerous compliments on the front room and it has become a space that my entire family can use.
>
> I would highly recommend her!

**★★★★★ — Marta Hernandez, April 2015**

> I hired Jennifer after coming across her e-design work on a blog, and I fell in love with her portfolio. She did great work in our small condo, really utilizing the available space and working within our budget and tastes. Her aesthetic did line up with ours, but she definitely made it feel like it belonged to us.
>
> She came up with unique solutions for our small dining area that I never would have thought of on my own. She also worked well with some of the furniture that we had and wanted to keep. And we get so many compliments on our entry way when guests walk in!
>
> She also recommended great workers to help complete the tasks of painting, and hanging lighting and art.
>
> I have recommended Jennifer to friends, colleagues and acquaintances alike, and I hope to work with her again in the future!

**★★★★★ — melkaybrow, Sept. 2014**

> My husband and I bought a house in Arlington and gutted the entire thing! We wanted to make sure we truly built our dream home with fabulous decor, so i hired Jennifer. She was great the entire process, very quick to respond to emails and any questions I had. I highly recommend Jennifer for any project you are considering, you wont regret it! When we move in about 4 years, I will certainly be calling her to do our next home!

**★★★★★ — Floor Coverings International, Sept. 2012**

> Jenn was instrumental in the design and placement of items in our new home. We recently moved and had a much different configuration than our past location. Jenn instantly provided quick fixes for many rooms that just made such a huge difference in the overall layout and visual appeal of many rooms.  Jenn helped identify the perfect paint color for our master bedroom (Benjamin Moore Englewood Cliffs), provided ample ideas and shopping locations for bedroom furniture and accessories.
