Our goal was to select furnishings, come back two months later and spend a week getting everything done. > > I spent a fast and furious 2 1/2 days with Margo choosing everything we needed for our new place. She arranged for Kathy at the Pamero shop to open the store early. Kathy spent the better part of two days with us and we were able to accomplish the whole project! > > Forward two months and our new home is absolutely gorgeous! In thinking about the project these are the things that I appreciate about Margo: > > She helped me develop MY vision - not a cookie cutter replica of one particular design or style. > > Margo was decisive and not afraid to say “no, that wouldn’t work” - even if it was a piece that I loved. She was very mindful of the sizes of my choices and whether they would fit well in my space. > > Margo has great connections in the industry. She knows painters, electricians, picture-hangers, etc. . Every worker that came to my home was professional, cheerful, on time and reasonably priced. > > Her follow through has been great!

We would highly recommend her. **★★★★★ — Linda Conti, Aug. 2019** > I was new to Sarasota and was starting over in a 2700 sq. ft. home and had no idea how and where to furnish it. Fortunately, I randomly found Margo at the HOUZZ website. She has been indispensable to the completion of our home, which we find comfortable and inviting now. Margo knows how to fit in with your style, to adapt to your budget and to respond to your inquiries. I really liked her decisiveness and willingness to reflect my tastes and desires. Margo is professional, dependable, honest and talented. I highly recommend her. **★★★★★ — pamster74, June 2018** > Margo Bohaty is a consummate professional. I met her after completing a total renovation on my condo. Quite frankly I was organizationally and creativity wiped out from the project and desperately wanted guidance on the next step: Interior decoration and turning my house into a home, I didn’t want to come that far and mess it up! What a fun learning adventure I experienced by working with Margo! Her ability to listen to your end goal and fill in the steps necessary to get there are very instrumental! Margo has a keen sense of style, emotion, color, design, layout and enjoys sharing her insights. Margo also illustrated a wonderful manner of empowering me to make final decisions with our projects and learn within her guidance. She would not allow me to crash and burn, and I value her opinion inexplicably. She has mastered the art of “devil in the details” and working with a immeasurably high level of perfection. Margo has many years of experience, and she has nurtured trusting working relationships with contractors and other professionals equally talented and skilled as herself. Any project or challenge you throw at her Margo will bring to life beautifully. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Margo and her team and consider myself extremely lucky for discovering her! **★★★★★ — cbullock1131, March 2018** > Margo was great to work with! She helped us define a plan and provided excellent recommendations for everything we needed - - from rugs to chairs to pillows. She “got” our style right from the start.

We had no idea she was a interior designer when we met. As we left her that day, she offered so much advice that we followed back up with her and let her take over our project.
