### Reviews

**★★★★★ — JM Studio, Oct. 2022**

> Thank you so much Jennifer!  We loved working with you.  You understood us and we can’t wait to enjoy our home that you created!

**★ — Virginia Reischl, Oct. 2022**

> Been almost a year and nothing to show for the money I've invested. Appointments made then no shows. Emails and calls go unanswered. Now, it looks as though she may have taken the money and ran. BBB says this buiness is closed. I am out approx. 8,000.  Disappointed and heartbroken. Beware. She may turn up again under a different name and play with your hopes and dreams.

**★ — all\_lake, Oct. 2021**

> Buyer beware for JM Home.  I placed an order with the "store" in July and the owner has refused to provide status updates.  After I continued to inquire, the owner canceled my order.  I am left to believe that the inventory never existed.  I can only hope I get my thousands of dollars back.

**Comment from Jennifer Michele LLC:**

> Hi Andria, this is Jennifer Michele.   You have been fully refunded for your purchase quite some time ago due to things are on back order.  Please email us directly  containing the thousands of dollars order you are discussing at jm@jennifermichele.com JM Home is a drop shipping company and when things are delayed in the furniture business, things go sideways.  I am sorry that happened to you and I wish you the best.

**★★★★★ — Harvey S, June 2021**

> JM is creative, has great taste, and only shows you items that are spot on. She does a great job of staying within budget.  I would recommend her to anyone who is seeking a designer who will help create a beautiful living environment.

**★★★★★ — HU-352810551, Nov. 2020**

> Stephan Simmons
>
> Her work is exemplary!  On time and on budget.  We highly recommend her work for anyone who wants quality results.

**Comment from Jennifer Michele LLC:**

> Thank you Stephan.  We loved working with you and your family.

**★★★★★ — Jonathan Brandt, Feb. 2020**

> Excellent professionalism and the highest quality design I've been associated with.  Creative and seemed to know just what I wanted.  Highly recommended to anyone who wants it done right.

**★★★★★ — James Bryan, Feb. 2020**

> Extremely professional.  Beautiful work.  Inspired.  There is no doubt that I would hire this firm again without hesitation.  Highly satisfied.

**★★★★★ — Brandt Construction LLC, Nov. 2017**

> We would highly recommend Sage Interiors.  We were very impressed with their design ideas and working relationship with us and our client.

**★★★★★ — ElloAgencyflatheadvalley Michaelhaase, May 2013**

> Jennifer is a talented Interior Designer providing full residential and commercial design services.  Her talent for luxury home staging has many real estate professionals praising her work.  Call Jennifer if you are looking for functional and artistic design in the mountain west.

**★★★★★ — montanaresident, April 2013**

> Jennifer not only possesses the skills for both interior design, interior architecture, and home-staging, but she also has a creative mind and is easily able to envision the end result. She works within budgets, wows clients, and is personable and professional. Her skills go far beyond those of a basic interior designer, and I would highly recommend her.

**★★★★★ — peggynagae, March 2013**

> Jennifer staged my house, which was beautifully done. More than that, when I needed assistance finding a photographer she spent hours on the phone finding one. She was positive, professional and so willing to be of service. She understands both how to "stage" a beautiful home, but also how to work with nervous house sellers to make the process of selling  pleasant and peaceful.
>
> I enjoyed working with her so much and so appreciated her work that I've  hired her to put my new house together. She's mindful, keeps her work, VERY helpful and fun to work with!  You will really, really be pleased with who she is and what she does!

**★★★★★ — eureka13, March 2013**

> Built a vacation property in Montana. Our Architect recommend Jennifer (Sage Design) to assist us where required.
>
> Jennifer assisted in selections of colors and designs for flooring, plumbing, granite, hardware, lighting, doors,  interior/exterior paint and stain colors etc ..
>
> Given that we were several hours away from our project Jennifer shopped and selected a few options for all our required selections which made final decision fairly easy and seamless.
>
> Jennifer communicated often by phone and emails to ensure we were always informed in meeting our budget targets.  She is extremely professional and was available anytime we needed her.
>
> If we were to build again Jennifer would be part of our project.
