### Reviews

**★★★★★ — HU-545280631, Sept. 2019**

> Michelle decorated our 2 bedroom villa in Sun City. She did a beautiful job and was a real pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend Michelle!!

**★★★★★ — Gerri Albert, Feb. 2018**

> Michele is very professional and friendly to work with.  She is always willing to come to my home and give me advice with no pressure.  She considers my ideas and desires into her decisions.

**★★★★★ — Nancy Gregory, April 2017**

> I recently built my home. Michelle helped me from the initial construction phase; assisting me with the selection of all the finishes including paint color, flooring, countertops, lighting, hardware, cabinets,  essentially the bones of my new home. In addition, she incorporated my treasured furniture, art work and rugs into the design and combined the new furniture, accessories and window treatments flawlessly. The result is absolutely stunning. She is a master of scale and design. Michelle carefully listened to what I wanted and delivered. I am very happy with the results and continually receive compliments on the decor of my home. It is elegant yet livable and it is precisely  what I envisioned.

**★★★★★ — salliealm, Dec. 2016**

> We chose Michelle to remodel our dark, dated master bedroom.  Her ideas of repurposing bland draperies, adding moulding, wallpaper and windows were the framework of the project.  From there we chose furniture, fabrics and lighting.  Michelle took great pains to discover our style and guide us to stay on budget.  She was patient when we changed paint colors and fabrics at the last minute, but spoke up when she thought selections did not work well together.  Michelle was generous with her time, took her work very seriously, but still made the project fun.  We will definitely use Michelle for our next design project.

**★★★★ — danniballe, Dec. 2016**

> Michelle  is a pleasure to work with! She is efficient  in compiling a complete look and works well within budget and taste of homeowners.  She has contacts with local contractors and is willing to oversee remodeling jobs as well as decorating – large or small projects. I have used her in 2 Sea Pines properties, and also long distance for work in my full-time home.

**★★★★★ — Bridget Duffie, Dec. 2016**

> Michelle has done an amazing job helping us with our home in Augusta! She has helped us with our whole house when it was built and two kids rooms later! She has a wonderful eye and can put things together you would never think of and look fabulous! We love to entertain and also rent our home out to a major corporation for Masters and each year get rave reviews on the interior design of our home! Thank you Michelle for all that you do!

**★★★★★ — Stephanie Cauller, Nov. 2016**

> Michelle has such a talent.  She brings in beautiful style for her clients needs, not her own and she understands the concept of timeless.  She creates space that is stunning and current, yet will not be outdated in 2-3 years.  Her color choices and adding in different textures really make any of her spaces POP.
>
> And her showroom is amazing!

**★★★★★ — Mary Lynn Peacher, Nov. 2016**

> Michelle is fun to work with and very talented. I highly recommend her! I love her work. She helped make my home look beautiful and unique.

**★★★★★ — Paul Bailey, Nov. 2016**

> Michelle always finds a way to bring everything together with her insightful and exciting flair.  Interior Motives is my choice for all my decorating needs.  Highly recommended.

**★★★★★ — lea8562, Nov. 2016**

> I am a local Realtor who has personally purchased from and referred clients to Interior Motives over the years. I intend to continue to do so. Michelle does an excellent job and strives to exceed expectations.

**★★★★★ — Carol Battocchio, Nov. 2016**

> In the past 14 years Michelle has remodeled almost every room in my home.  From family room to bedrooms to dining room and kitchen, she has done a wonderful job.  Always takes my preferences into consideration.  She is always professional and the trades people she uses have been very good.
> I would highly recommend her work.

**★★★★★ — cahs511, April 2016**

> Michelle is great to work with -- she has wonderful ideas, is always pleasant and works within our budget.  She totally understood the look we wanted and the intended use of the room and the furniture.  She is flexible in regard to changes and she never forces her opinions on us but makes constructive suggestions when she thinks something might work better -- and it always does!  We never felt rushed during our scheduled meetings or when we would just drop in on her in her shop.  She has great taste and ideas -- the furniture and wall art we have is beautiful and unique and the paint color she suggested for our walls is perfect.  So many people have commented on how beautiful our house looks.  We are so pleased and would highly recommend Michelle.  We started in July, 2014 and intend to continue to work with her for the other rooms in our house.

  - Description: This beautiful, new kitchen in Belfair Plantation is a partial nod to the modern farmhouse. It's open and spacious with so many thoughtful details. The natural colors + design elements, capture the essence of the Lowcountry. The top of the island is fabricated with Fantasy Brown Marble. One of the focal points of this kitchen is the stunning backsplash made up of 4x12 metallic glass tiles. You will find tons of inspiration in this kitchen!
