### Featured Review

**★★★★★ — Roxanne Franzen, Oct. 2023**

> I worked with Carol on a kitchen update. I found Carol to be very easy to work with.  She brought in skilled craftsmen to complete the project to my satisfaction.  She was especially helpful in the selection of paint colors which was my highest concern.  Although I pretty much knew what I wanted she had some great ideas that I hadn't thought of which made the finished project much better.  I decided to work with a designer because I did not want to make any mistakes on this expensive project and with Carol's help I did not.  It was so nice to have her to bounce things off.   I would definitely work with her again.

**★★★★★ — HU-128168053, July 2025**

> When we decided to renovate the main level of our home, I trusted the recommendations of previous clients and HCA families and contacted Carol to request that she provide the interior design services. Little did I know at the time the true extent of what Carol’s involvement would be. Carol cared for all aspects of our project, from interior design to product selection and procurement, to project management, and project execution. We fully redesigned our living room and kitchen, and updated our powder room, formal dining room and foyer. I had a vision and needed the right person to bring it to life. Carol took the time to understand my goals and style, and used her expertise, talent, and connections to create beauty beyond what I thought possible in our space. Carol suggested updates that would stand the test of time and flow with the interior design of the remainder of our home. We love our updated space and are so proud to welcome visitors. Thank you, Carol, for sharing your patience and feedback freely throughout the duration of this project and for making sure the process itself was seamless and rewarding. Collaborating with you felt like working with a longtime friend, and I will forever cherish those memories.

**★★★★★ — HU-921687095, June 2025**

> Carol is absolutely wonderful to work with! She has great expertise, talent, and knowledge in interior design and accomplishes this within your budget. She listens to what your vision is and gets to know your style and preferences while bringing things together to fulfill that vision. I highly recommend using Carol’s Interior Fashions!

**★★★★★ — Karl J, May 2025**

> We worked with Carol to complete our recent remodel. She did a great job designing and managing the remodel of our kitchen, family room, bathroom, and dining room. We appreciated the creativity of her design and her amazing communication, responsiveness, and organization. We could never have tackled the project alone. She had unique knowledge and expertise in managing the project and making our vision come to life. We are planning to use Carol for further projects. She is the best!-

**★★★★★ — HU-470813231, Oct. 2023**

> Carol worked with me for a master bedroom update. She was very easy to work with, readily understood my style, quickly found fabrics I liked and guided me in choices for bedspread, pillows, draperies, furniture, paint and carpet.   She had great ideas, communicated efficiently, always keeping me updated with our progress. I totally love how the project turned out and would definitely work with her again. She is knowledgeable, efficient, and very personable. I highly recommend her as a interior consultant.

**Comment from Carol's Interior Fashions:**

**Comment from Carol's Interior Fashions:**

> Thank you!  It was such a pleasure working with you, love how your sun room turned out!

**★★★★★ — HU-8489449, Sept. 2023**

> We feel so fortunate that we were led through our kitchen remodel by Carol. She and her team handled everything flawlessly. She helped us stay in a comfortable budget, always gave us updates, listened to our color or style  preferences and then added them beautifully into our project. Already planning on hiring her for a bathroom remodel and help for choosing new furniture. She does not disappoint!

**★★★★★ — Susan Carlson, June 2023**

> Working with Carol was so fun!  She has an amazing knowledge of design.
> We updated the look of our home. New flooring, light fixtures, wallpaper, backsplash, new furniture and a custom valance.  I love walking in the door of our updated home!  She got my style spot on!  Our dog, Woody loved her visits too. I would definitely recommend her!  She’s awesome!

**Comment from Carol's Interior Fashions:**

> Susan you are so kind!  Thank you for the wonderful review, it was a pleasure working with you and "Woody"!

**★★★★★ — sforsberg, May 2023**

> Carol helped us completely re-do our kitchen this year and she did a great job! We were gone for five weeks and wanted the kitchen to be completely done when we got home. She helped us pick out everything - she has very great taste and her input was what we needed as neither my husband and I like decorating. Carol has great contractors (e.g., construction company to tear out the kitchen, cabinet maker, counter top and tile people, painters, electricians, and plumber) she has worked with. She coordinated andn managed the whole project. We had some stain problems with our wooden floor and she worked with a contact of hers to clean it up and you can't tell where the stain is. As I said, we were out of town as the project was being done, but she communicated all the time with questions and pictures. We could not believe how smoothly this project went. I would highly recommend Carol - great ideas, good communicator, solid relationships with contractors, and just a terrific person to work with.

**★★★★★ — Carol Hendrickson, March 2023**

> We did a large addition to our home adding a main bedroom on the 1st level and a kitchen upgrade. Carol was extremely helpful with suggesting materials and options for completion of all the new and remodeled spaces! We appreciated her industry and style knowledge and her counsel on current trends. Plus she was able to recommend multiple selections which sped up the process for us!  We really were thankful for Carol’s professional help in all our decisions!!

**★★★★★ — pszdon, Feb. 2023**

> Carol went above and beyond to help me find the perfect materials for my windows and pillows.  She is very professional and a joy to work with!

**★★★★★ — myandersonestates, Feb. 2023**

> We found Carol through Houzz and later learned that two friends have also worked with Carol.  We all enjoy working with her.
>
> Carol worked with us to update the lower level our walkout and we couldn't be happier with the result!
> I am not visual and so sought Carol's advice on everything from flooring, to window treatments, to picking paint colors, choosing tile and cabinetry, and even art and accessories.  Our lower level rec room is beautiful and functional. Bedrooms were painted and recarpeted, and the lower level bath upgraded.  Carol was with us every step of the way.  She helped organize the work sequentially and found high quality contractors for the work.  We recommend Carol 100%.

**★★★★★ — Jeri, Jan. 2022**

> Carol was terrific to work with in the recent remodel of our kitchen. She is personable, listens well, has wonderful ideas, and an eye for design and functionality. She helped not only with the design of the kitchen, but also with picking out paint colors, flooring, lighting, cabinetry, countertops and backsplash, along with having excellent contacts for contractors to do the work. I will be forever grateful for how she gently convinced me to reconsider when I was about to make a very foolish flooring decision! But she also didn’t force her opinions on me as I didn’t choose to follow all of her suggestions.
> I think you will find Carol to be a tremendous asset in any design or remodel projects you undertake.

**★★★★★ — Anne Johnson, Jan. 2022**

> We loved working with Carol to redesign our kitchen and dining area.  Carol's creative ideas helped us realize how we could expand and redesign our kitchen into the hub of our home.  She helped us choose cabinetry, flooring, and countertops that blended with our existing traditional woodwork while still giving us the modern update we wanted.  Carol created a remodel schedule, coordinated with contractors, and kept in close communication with us.  We love our new space and couldn't have done this project without Carol's expertise.

**Comment from Carol's Interior Fashions:**

> Anne, so glad you are enjoying your updated home.  Working with you was a pleasure, loved your input (Ellen's too)! Everything turned out great!

**★★★★★ — Anne, Aug. 2021**

> Carol was fabulous!  Very organized, thoughtful, and had some very insightful and helpful suggestions.  She was on time, considerate of budget, and did what she said she would on time.  I couldn’t have completed the project without her.  In fact, plan to use her again!

**Comment from Carol's Interior Fashions:**

> Anne that you so much for the review.  Very nice working with you!

**★★★★★ — mguggs, Aug. 2021**

> Carol was prompt, thorough and very considerate! She offered up several options for our needs. It was a joy working with her on our window treatments!

**Comment from Carol's Interior Fashions:**

> Thank you Michelle & Steve, love working with your family! Carol

**★★★★★ — hammyl, May 2021**

> Carol helped us upgrade our master bath and we are so pleased with the results!  She listened to our ideas and then helped us find the right materials.  Her eye for color and design was invaluable as we made the choices for tiles, counters, etc.  The process was so much easier with her help!  Carol worked well with our contractor and was very good at checking in with us throughout the process.

**★★★★★ — Kitchen update, Jan. 2021**

> Carol was amazing to work with on our kitchen update. She was respectful of our budget and wants in our kitchen. Carol organized the different workers and services we needed to get our bright new kitchen saving us the stress of doing that. I’m just in love with my new kitchen and Carol delivered on my vision and dream.

**★★★★★ — cearley75, Oct. 2020**

> Hiring Carol was the best thing we ever did. We talked about redecorating for years and just couldn’t take that first step. Thank goodness we found Carol on Houzz. She has a number of excellent contractors that she’s worked with and we immediately started moving forward with updating our kitchen and the rest of our house. Carol guided us through the entire process and
> made selecting kitchen  finishes, flooring, and window coverings a very smooth process. We recommend her to all our  friends and family and would not hesitate to hire her again.  A joy to work with!

**★★★★★ — HU-87481970, Oct. 2020**

> Carolina the best! She has superb taste and an eye for figuring out what my best options are given my preferences. Carol is prompt and professional and caring and genuine. She is also practical and great at brainstorming ideas. Highly recommend!!

**★★★★★ — Sarah Green, Dec. 2019**

> My husband and I have worked with Carol since we moved into our home in August 2018.  We call her each time we are ready to start on a new room. She has great ideas. She considers our budget. She has guided us on where we should spend and save. She is fun to collaborate with.

**★★★★★ — Mike & Camille Pinter, Aug. 2019**

> We hired Carol to help us through our kitchen remodel and she did a great job of listening to what we wanted and then helping us turn those ideas into reality.   She was patient with us as we decided on various products we wanted to use and her keen eye and design experience helped bring it all together.    We are very happy with the final outcome and we loved working with Carol.   We highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a great interior designer to help them with their next home project!

**★★★★★ — Sue G, March 2019**

> Carol helped us with our master bath / bedroom remodel, and we later added a second bath remodel to the project.  Carol helped us every step of the way.  She kept us focused on what needed to be done, and was able to help us make smart decisions about the project.  We love the results.  She was available whenever we or the contractor needed clarifications or guidance.  Thanks Carol!!  We love our new space.

**Comment from Carol's Interior Fashions:**

> Thanks Sue, loved working with the two of you!  Enjoy your new bathroom!

**★★★★★ — HU-381221055, Jan. 2019**

**★★★★★ — Gary Disch, Dec. 2018**

> A wonderful experience,
> Working with Carol was a great experience as we built our new home this summer. Carol made great suggestions as construction progressed. We worked with Carol on all interior finishes, furniture purchases, lighting and color selection. We loved how each room came together. We also purchased all our window coverings from Carol. With her suggestions it really put the final touches on our home.
> We would recommend using Carol"s Interior Fashions for all your design needs.

**★★★★★ — Marsha Davey, Aug. 2018**

> Carol has helped us with a number of projects over the years and has always had good, cost effective ideas.
> Recently she helped coordinate the choosing and installation of new granite counter tops for our kitchen and two bathrooms along with the refinishing of all of our kitchen cabinets.  The contractors she introduced us to were also top notch.  We are very very pleased with how things turned out!

**★★★★★ — mlmcferrin, Aug. 2018**

> Carol is so great to work with whether your project is big or small. I had a smaller project this time - updating some existing drapes. She assisted with fabric selection and making the updates. They look beautiful!  And she is also so upbeat and easy to connect with.

**Comment from Carol's Interior Fashions:**

> Thank you for taking the time to review me, such a pleasure working with you!

**★★★★★ — juliemaz, Feb. 2018**

> Carol updated our kitchen, powder room, and laundry room.  The design was fresh and current yet still in keeping with my tastes and the style of our house.  I'm thrilled with my 'new' rooms and plan on hiring Carol for future projects.  Carol is a wonderful to work with!

**Comment from Carol's Interior Fashions:**

> Julie, Thank you for taking the time to review my business.  It has been such a pleasure working with you!  Looking forward to seeing the family room complete!

**★★★★★ — Chelle Guericke, Feb. 2018**

> I've had the joy of working with Carol on two separate projects in my home.  One was readying our main floor for our son's graduation and the other was transforming our dining room into a beautiful semi-private oasis for my mother while she was going through cancer treatment.  Carol is kind, caring, has a wonderful eye for design, and is very cost/budget conscience.   Carol really listens to your needs, gets to know how your family functions in the space, and always ends up exceeding your design expectations.  I highly recommend Carol's Interior Fashions.  Carol is a pro!

**Comment from Carol's Interior Fashions:**

> Chelle,  Thank you so much for the review!  It was a pleasure working with you, so glad I could be part of something so special!

**★★★★★ — Yvette Ramberg, Dec. 2017**

> Carol is great to work with! She is helping us brighten up/remodel our kitchen and update our family room. She has an amazing ability to listen to two different opinions and come back with ideas that both my husband and I love. The materials and fabrics she has chosen are beautiful and fit in perfectly with the existing flooring and woodwork. Carol is professional, helpful, and fun to work with! I highly recommend her for any decorating needs.

**★★★★★ — Lauren Young, Dec. 2017**

> We hired Carol to assist us in updating our 1990's kitchen and dining room areas. She was everything we needed. She listened, she understood what we were trying to accomplish, and she offered ideas and options much better than any we had. Carol was always cheerful and diplomatic. I appreciated her help and good taste when shopping for tile and lighting. She brought the perfect selections of paint, wood stain, and upholstery samples to our home. Carol showed great patience and humor. I don't think our kitchen would be as beautiful if we hadn't hired Carol.

**★★★★★ — Brady Smith, Dec. 2017**

> Carol has been a pleasure to work with.  We love how she has helped us transform our home!   One of the best things about Carol is when she says she will do something she always follows through.  I would highly recommend Carol for anyone looking to work with a professional on the interior design of their home.

**★★★★★ — lorrie neuharth, Feb. 2017**

> Carol listened to our needs, stayed within our budget and connected us with a superb cabinet painter.

**★★★★★ — Terry Headline, Feb. 2017**

> Working with Carol was an absolute treat!
> I was struggling with turning my ideas into reality and reached out to Carol based on the recommendation of a friend.  My first meeting with Carol convinced me to hire her for the project based on her ability to ask leading questions and carefully listen to my responses.  She was able to incorporate my ideas and existing style along with her knowledge of interior design concepts into a beautiful room!  I would highly recommend Carol to anyone who is considering a home project.

**★★★★★ — kshapito, Sept. 2016**

> Carol Booms has helped me with several rooms in my house. She listened to my thoughts and took my ideas into consideration. Carol's professional advice and ideas were enormously helpful in pulling my rooms together. Carol also provided contacts to others who could provide professional services such as custom reupholstering. Carol also met me at the fabric store and guided me towards quality fabrics and colors. I would definitely hire Carol again.

**★★★★★ — HU-893634, Sept. 2016**

> I have used Carol for several different projects.  She is absolutely wonderful to work with.  Always listens and provides great service and guidance.

**★★★★ — Michelle Burros, Sept. 2016**

> Carol helped us with a kitchen remodel - she was knowledgeable and took into account our situation.  She knows the trends and recommended to us what would be best for us. We had an issue with a vendor and she quickly followed up, which was very helpful.

**★★★★★ — HU-752658, Aug. 2016**

> Carol helped us design our main level family room in our new home. Because it was an odd shape, we were a little perplexed by how to arrange the furniture and what furniture would fit and look appropriate in the space. Carol is a true professional. She suggested a furniture store that we now absolutely LOVE! She helped us design the space and gave great suggestions for pieces of furniture that would work well in the space. She was prompt in giving us her layouts for the room and was great about giving lots of choices. We would definitely recommend working with her.

**★★★★★ — linda3487, March 2016**

> I have had an opportunity to work with Carol on two projects, decorating our family room and recent remodel of our master bath.  Carol really makes the effort to understand how you use or plan to use the space, the look you are going for or think you are going for.  Carol is budget conscience and provides options. She is very prompt, if she says she is going to meet you at a vendor, she arrives ahead of time to pull choices to save you
>  time.   I love my new master bath.  Before I engaged Carol,  I was so overwhelmed with choices, I could not have done it without Carol's assistance.

**★★★★★ — pujhelyi, Jan. 2016**

> I have known and worked with Carol on and off for the last ten years. She has helped us with various projects throughout the years. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with Carol when we bought a new house. Carol helped us achieve our vision of a timeless style and classic feel but still elegant and cozy. Along with her flair for design, she has an attention to detail and an understanding of space that pulled the whole space together. She always gave us plenty of options and different price points that made the whole process flow smoothly. She was easy to work with and followed up to make sure everything looked good and we were happy with our choices. I have recommended Carol to several people and everyone who has worked with her had a great experience!!

**★★★★★ — catron28, Jan. 2016**

> Carol did a fantastic job in the renovating our two bathrooms.  Her knowledge of interior decorating is amazing.  She was very organized from start to finish. Initially, she sent me pictures of bathrooms to look at for ideas.  Carol did the legwork before we went shopping by calling the stores ahead of time that we were planning to go to so that when we got there everything was already set up for us to look at different items.  The biggest way she helped me was by accompanying me to each place.  She is an awesome decision maker especially when I couldn't make up my mind on choices.  She was able to give me ideas that I wouldn't have thought of on my own, but not too many to overwhelm me.  During the project, she was  available to talk with me when different decisions had to be made and she talked with our contractors to make sure things were done the way I liked them.

**★★★★★ — dkoroo1, Jan. 2015**

> I hired Carol Interior Fashions to do work on my home which had absolutely no charm. Carol came into my home, listened to my ideas and  blended together a plan to reform my home. I wanted to do it right the first time considering the cost of paint ,furnishings ,window treatments and time. Carol went right to work with myself and my husband to help us transform our home creating a ,"Tuscan villa" feel. Carol was always very professional and always on time with deadlines.
> Carol has a great personality and it is very easy to share ideas with her .Carol values your input by coordinating your style/personality with the design . It's a shared masterpiece.
> I would hire Carol again and again. Which I do.

We also removed the wall closing off the family room from the action in the kitchen, creating an open area with a gold chandelier adding a flair towards modern.

  - Description: Client desired a clean, minimal kitchen space with a nod towards a mid-century style. By incorporating the space previously used for an eat-in kitchen, we created a large, trending L-shaped island which allows seating for five. Flat recessed panels were used on the island ends and back lending an eye to mid-century. The backsplash is a continuation of the counter top in Cambria Colton.

  - Description: A dark and tight kitchen get updated with a new floor plan layout and brighter colors. The original kitchen had wasted space for a walk through and the island could interfered with the work area. By designing an island away from the sink area and adding a round "table" to the end of it the homeowner didn't feel the clutter in the work space.

## Community Q&A

**Q: I like the contrast, but like the warmer wood** *(in Photo Questions)*

I like the contrast but like the warmer wood color in the other picture more.  I like the shiplap, but is that on its way out?  I still like the look!

A: Depending on the size of the TV, I think having either vertical or horizontal shiplap would fill in the space good, do you like that the shelving has a vertical divider of wood between the TV and wall?

**Q: I really like this one…I like the thicker shelving and I like the c** *(in Photo Questions)*

I really like this one….i love the thicker shelving and the contrast.

A: Yes, I think it has a nice open, light feel and would look great in the front room.
