INTERIORS BY MARLA

Marla is very enthusiastic and has great ideas. She offers many possibilities, and was great at nailing our style. She helped us design/decorate a great room that was what we envisioned and more. Her fees are reasonable, she stays within your budget, she works to get you the best prices on furniture and window treatments, she has access to wonderful service providers, and she loves to incorporate family pieces into the design, and is great at doing it. We are looking forward to see what ideas she has in store for the rest of our home.

I met with Marla after an extensive structural remodel of the interior of my home to consult on the interior furnishings of the entire house (furniture, window treatments, accent pieces and accessories). She spent several hours with us to determine exactly what style and color schemes we desired base on what we wanted to see and how we lived. We then spent several hours together "shopping". This included stores, sample books, online sites, etc. I found that Marla had a fabulous ability to uncover what both me and my husband wanted as a finished look for our home and began selecting the different suppliers that could best meet our expectations and the project began. Her designs were exceptional - outstanding attention to detail. Estimates were complete and on target - no surprises. She managed each and every phase expertly. She gave us frequent updates with what "finished" would look like and the anticipated completion times. As we have entertained friends over the past few months we have received numerous complements about the beauty and uniqueness of our home and the attention to detail in each room and we agree. What more can I say.

Marla is the Best! She helped us make our new home with bare walls and empty spaces into a place we love and are proud of. She worked with our needs, "wants", and existing posessions and made suggestions to bring everything together into a beautiful, comfortable space that met our goals and budget. She even designed and helped us build a custom buffet when we could not find one ready made. Marla is very professional, affordable, and has great sources. I have worked with interior decorators in the past, but Marla is the BEST. HM

Marla is a professional designer, very customer friendly, energetic and very easy person to work with. She takes very good care of her clientele and tactfully matches their decor with their varied tastes and personalities. She adeptly finds just the right design ideas for each customer. I always enjoy working with Marla and recommend her to anyone who needs advice or direction when it comes to interior design.

I worked with several decorators since moving to Florida but none were more responsive, caring and easy to work with then Marla. I especially liked the fact that she worked with existing pieces thus minimizing our total expense. She has a great eye for color and worked tirelessly to find the exact look that we wanted in our house.

We worked with Marla over several months to furnish our new home. She was creative, responsive, perseverant, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure that we were satisfied with the final results. She also sought out the lowest cost alternatives as we made purchases, and combined with her very reasonable rates, gave us great value for what we acquired. We would (and have) recommend her highly.

I am very pleased with the services provided. I found Marla's knowledge and experience of great value in my selection of window treatments, house furnishings and décor. She was very much attuned to what my tastes were and her suggestions were very helpful. I highly recommend her services.

I hired Marla to help me with window treatments for my whole house. She took the work out of this process and even made it fun! First she help me get a plan so the whole house would look put together and not just an after thought. She showed me different ideas and brought fabrics to the house so I could see what they looked like in my setting. She looks out for you and will get you the best prices on fabrics and labor. I felt very comfortable talking with and discussing options with her. My finished windows are beautiful! I would not hesitate to highly recommend Marla for any ones decorating needs!

Marla is absolutely the best interior decorator. She has an incredible eye for design, fabrics and color and an amazing ability to understand her clients' vision and desires. During our project we were so impressed with her ability to come up with beautifully unique ideas and great solutions to challenging decorating problems. She treated our home as if it were her own, always staying within budget and diligent in her efforts to save us money wherever possible on the entire project while not sacrificing the high quality we desired or the beauty of the finished project. Marla is also personable, down-to-earth, enthusiastic and great fun to work with. She has an extensive network of excellent subcontractors and she supervises what they do to make sure everything is perfect. She truly cares that you will be delighted with her efforts. We are thrilled with everything she handled for us including all window treatments, furniture, paint colors, oriental rug choices, custom bedding, custom furniture, and accessories. I have confidently recommended Marla to many friends, and every single one has been so happy with Marla's work for them that they have thanked me over and over for telling them about her. If you are looking for an interior decorator, look no further!

Can't say enough about Marla! From the first consulting appointment, to the finished project, Marla was fantastic! I loved her professionalism and unique way she came into my home, listened to the look I wanted to achieve, and then worked her magic! Her knowledge of fabrics, window treatments, coordinating wall coverings, and colors is truly amazing. All this, with a close working involvement with you every step of the way! The end result was a beautifully decorated home that exudes the exact look I could only have dreamed of, and I gained a fun friend for life too! Thanks again Marla, I just love my house!

Marla is a detailed oriented, organized, a clear communicator with great business skills. She is easy to work with as she calls it as she sees it and is on top of the job. She works to save money wherever she can and stays on budget - you always know where you are on expenses. She works with many styles - as I have seen 3 other homes she has worked on and none are alike. The recommendations she gave us were totally in touch with our taste and we're just beautiful fabrics, window treatments and furniture choices. We love our home, the uniqueness and beauty of all that she has done. I would highly recommend her.

I am so happy with the help my decorating consultant gave me. I needed guidance with draperies and upholstery. Marla took me to fabric houses, stayed with me all day. We chose beautiful materials and the work began. The draperies turned out fabulous. The upholstered chair is great. She even helped me choose the color for the window shades. She is so knowlegable. She knows every fabric name and who it is made by. And she is fun, too. You will love her.
