She helped us with a complete overhaul of our master bathroom as well as a redo of our kids’ bathroom. > > We came in with a general idea of what we wanted, and Kelly was fantastic at helping us bring that vision to life. Beyond the master bathroom’s new look, she helped us make a much better use of the space to improve functionality. She also helped brighten up our kids’ bathroom while making it more functional as well. > > There are so many decisions and details to navigate with fixtures and parts when redoing a bathroom, and it was such a relief knowing she had everything covered. Communication was smooth and easy throughout, especially when we had last-minute questions for the contractor. > > We love how both bathrooms turned out! **★★★★★ — Deb Kocar, Jan. 2026** > Kelly works magic! > We moved to Fairfield having purged all our things - the intention was to downsize and enjoy life. We bought a new house with lots of natural light and open spaces. Kelly helped us create a home that is comfortable and casual for entertaining both adults and grandchildren! She respected our budget, asked challenging questions and most importantly, she listened. She presented multiple options for fabrics, color, and size of the pieces. When we got “stuck” she provided guidance. She was a terrific cheerleader! She gave us “a home.” > > We couldn’t be more excited with the results!! **★★★★★ — Marie Ryan, Jan. 2026** > Kelly is highly creative & collaborates closely with clients offering options which readily translates vision into stunning finished product. > Her business acumen is exceptional enhanced by her communications skills! **Comment from kellydesigns:** > It was a pleasure helping you refresh your living room! **★★★★★ — Lisa H, July 2025** > I've been working with Kelly for the last 6+ months.

Would definitely recommend her and would use her again! **Comment from kellydesigns:** > It was my pleasure to work with you on creating a cohesive updated look for your home that not only looks pretty but functions for your family! **★★★★★ — Kelly C, April 2025** > I can't say enough great things about kellydesigns. Kelly got to know my personal style and worked with me to design rooms that are exactly what I was after but so much better! I found that Kelly knew when to encourage and when to give direction. She has tons of great resources in the business and uses the perfect mix of technology, samples and swatches to help make decision making easy. Her calm and professional disposition, design expertise and easy communication platform made her a pleasure to work with. I am smitten with the final product and hope to use Kelly again! **Comment from kellydesigns:** > it was truly a delight to work with you and your family to create a warm , welcoming , beautiful dining room ,living room and bathroom! **★★★★★ — Ann Barham, March 2025** > I would highly recommend Kelly Designs if you want to stage your house to get the best possible price. I thought I had a reasonably good eye and friends would complement me on my decor ... but when Kelly staged my house for sale the place really was transformed to a another level entirely. Her crew does an excellent move in and move out job. Tuck your decorating ego in your pocket and let Kelly do her magic. It will reflect in the interest and offers you get on your house when selling. **Comment from kellydesigns:** > It was a pleasure to work with you and help you have a successful and quick sale! **★★★★★ — Danielle Bartlett, Dec. 2024** > Working with Kelly was great! She’s super professional and knowledgeable from anything from kitchen hardware, furniture, countertops and wallpaper. We renovated our entire main floor and could t have done it without Kelly’s help. We love everything about our new kitchen and new furniture. I highly recommend using Kelly as your decorator. **★★★★★ — Zach P, Oct. 2024** > Kelly did an incredible job staging our home before it went on the market! She has an excellent eye and was full of great ideas. Her team was professional and efficient as well. I would highly recommend her for any staging and interior design services. **Comment from kellydesigns:** > It was a pleasure working with you and your family! So happy for you that you had a quick and successful sale . **★★★★★ — PFM, Oct. 2024** > I recently sold my home, and Kelly staged the house for photos and showings. Kelly's staging made the space photograph and look spectacular. The home sold within the weekend it was listed, and for over asking. **Comment from kellydesigns:** > It was a pleasure working with you and I was so thrilled you were able to sell quickly and receive a price that was over your asking price! **★★★★★ — Seth, April 2024** > I can’t say enough about Kelly, she is a magician… I could not believe how good my house looked, I wanted to stay here myself. > Our sale was a blowout we had over 40 separate buyers come in one day, 11 solid offers in 6 hours and we sold, close to 20 percent over asking.. in my opinion it had everything to do with the staging. > Our previous sales attempt was a flop by comparison… **★★★★★ — Tori Collicelli, Jan. 2024** > I recently had the pleasure of working with Kelly who helped us update several areas of our home. From the start, Kelly displayed impeccable professionalism and a keen eye for detail. She took the time to understand our lifestyle, preferences, and budgetary constraints before presenting us with a comprehensive plan. Her ability to listen attentively and translate our ideas into tangible design concepts was truly remarkable. > > Not only did Kelly guide us through the selection process, but she also connected us with all the contractors and tradespeople involved in the project. They were all fantastic and did exceptional work. Kelly's project management skills ensured that the work proceeded smoothly and efficiently, with minimal disruption to our family life. > > Communication with Kelly was prompt and transparent, and she kept us updated on the project's progress, answered our questions promptly, and was receptive to our feedback every step of the way. Now, as the work in our home is complete, we are truly enjoying it and are very grateful to Kelly for making it happen! **★★★★★ — Home + Christmas Decorating, Jan. 2024** > This is my second time using Kelly’s design service. She helped me set up my new house post divorce. She simplified my decisions and made the process easier for me and my sons. I also hired her to help me decorate for Christmas. It was money well spent as it reduced my stress and I now have a house that feels like a home.
