Sandy MacDonald Studio

Our house would not be a home without Sandy. From day 1 we worked with her to restore, re-imagine and reinvigorate our home more in line with our tastes and interest. Getting rid of way too much gold, bling, red walls, poor faux work from past owners. Sandy rescued the house and bring my french dreams to life....from faux wood finishes for a fireplace to Venetian marble walls, pirate islands for kids, strie walls, french finishes on moldings and my all time favorite - faux aviary room!!- she has made it all come to life. She has a fantastic eye for editing and does reign in my whims which really helps keeps the house from going to avant-garde [thank god]. One time I phoned her weeping because I ruined her ceiling with touch up work I thought I could do....[bad idea] and she helped me figure out what to do next - although she wasnt able to be there herself. I dont hesitate to think of new projects for Sandy -every year- as I have been doing for over 10 years..... and although she is on one side of the country she still fits the "Californian's" into her schedule. I dont select projects base on costs but have always found her to be reasonable. I also believe her followup is extraordinary. Cant say enough! A true true gem. [note I have only provided images from one room - shots can be a bit dark....which is just the lighting] My next large project is my kitchen....cannot wait to see what Sandy dreams up.
