**★★★★★ — Laurie, Dec. 2024**

> I cannot express what a pleasure it was to work with Michele.  My. sister and I had never used an interior designer before and were not sure what to expect.  Well, what a great experience.  Michele picked up on our taste immediately, she offered both high end furniture, decor, etc., but also was very good at finding a deal when possible.  She incorporated our old furniture in with the new and was very patient with us making decisions.  I would recommend Michele to anyone who needs a very accomplished interior designer.  She was just a joy to work with.

**★★★★★ — Gary Kirsh, Dec. 2023**

> Michele is a fantastic designer!  We have worked with her closely on many projects extending including a major design project when we built our new home.  Michele is creative, understands and listens to the needs of the client, and always sensitive to client budget. She is not pushy, but will help point clients in the right direction to get a quality result!  You cannot go wrong with Michele!

**★★★★★ — jseanoreilly, Aug. 2020**

> Michele has helped us make our dream home a reality.  Many say building a home can place a strain on a relationship, but a good designer can eliminate that concern.  Michele is a great designer!

**★★★★★ — Connie Henderson, Oct. 2019**

> Michele is great to work with.  She took our vision of wanting an elegant farmhouse feel to our new home and helped us with all our selections from lighting, tile, flooring, to furniture, window treatments and everything in between.  I love how she listens to your preferences with practical as well as creative advice.  She is wonderful at problem solving  and blending things you  already have with new items to make everything look fresh and cohesive.  I would definitely recommend Michele.

**★★★★★ — Elizabeth S, July 2016**

> Michele has been an amazing resource for us.  We started working with Michele years ago on a few small decorating projects, and then relied on her tremendously when building a new house from scratch.   Every year or two we come up with a new idea that she jumps right in on and helps it turn out phenomenal.
> What I love about working with Michele is that she really understands our needs (often more than I do myself :)) and always guides us in the right direction.   She knows when a cornerstone, high value piece will make a large impact, as well as when a creative, DIY, or great deal can be used.
> On our most recent project, a basement remodel, the finished product far exceeded our expectations.  Her careful attention to every detail resulted in a new fun living space that continues to get compliments from guests.

**★★★★★ — Kateri Haskett, June 2016**

> Michele and Arbor Living are great to work with.  Michele is professional and  knowledgeable about so many things she makes projects much easier.  I have worked with her on at least six projects around my house with some being major remodels.  She helps guide the project from start to finish giving time and money saving input along the way.  She takes the time to understand how you use your space so she can be sure the end project is perfect for you.  I cannot
