**★★★★★ — Vasari Plaster, May 2014**

> Ann's work is refined and sophisticated. It's timeless with the proper hints of whimsy and color. It's very pleasing to enter one of Ann's rooms. Ann has a great eye for form and function. Her designs are elegant and never dated.

**★★★★★ — klavidge, Feb. 2014**

> Ann is a true professional.   She has excellent taste.  She works very hard to make sure the project reflects the individual's personal style.   She has all the connections and resources to get the project done exactly to my demanding requests.  She is sensitive to costs and accurate when helping to estimate a project budget.    She is also very creative  at finding ways to reuse existing pieces of furniture  in new ways.    She decorated every room in my new home.
