“We have worked with Penelope Daborn Ltd. on several occasions. We are always pleased with the results. Penny has helped in choosing colors, fabrics and drapes. We recently built a new porch and we had seen a sofa we liked in a magazine. Penny helped to design the piece to be built. In addition she helped with the spatial arrangement of the room, the selection of fabric and window coverings and additional furnishings. We originally worked with Penelope Daborn Ltd. 7 years ago when we moved to a new house. We always come back for her expert eye, wealth of knowledge and the top notch coordination in making the arrangements for acquiring what we need.”

“Bronwyn Huffard is a dream-a gifted interior designer with a laser-like focus on color and proportion, and an eye for detail. She's guided us through three projects for two different houses--one a coastal summer residence on the coast of Maine, the second a large Shingle Style house just outside a city. In every case, she has presented us with beautiful and often unusual options for fabric, trim and accessories, has respected budget realities and met deadlines.”

“Vanessa really *gets* us, and to the extent our house is warm, inviting, and comfortable, it is largely her doing. It is what we wanted without knowing we wanted it. We still find ourselves using her, even at long distance. She's just that good.”

“Theresa did an incredible job to help me redesign my living room. Her sense of style and design have made my home feel warm and inviting. I have had numerous comments from family and friends on the beauty of the space. Theresa made the process easy and affordable.”

“Christina helped us decorate most all of our new home. She is smart, talented and an absolute joy to work with! She helped us co-ordinate our Ethan Allen furniture with window treatments and rugs, all in one fabulous store. A very professional woman, I would recommend Christi's expertise to anyone that needs advice with their decorating!”

“I retained Ms. Stewart for three very different jobs (from 2011 to 2016) in two different states -- a law firm in an historic building, a 950sf urban cottage, and a sprawling summer retreat. Her expansive knowledge and experience, unfailingly upbeat demeanor, daring, problem-solving skills, insistence on excellence, and truly brilliant sense of style and taste helped transform all three into places of beauty and comfort. She is the absolute best!”

“Best we have worked with, hands down! After a bad experience with a different designer 16 years ago, we were reluctant to seek these services again. Wanting to completely redo our kitchen and family room, we reached out to Sheri a little nervous but open to (and desperately needing) new ideas. Sheri did not disappoint. In fact, she transformed our living space, and met the needs and every desire of a large and bustling family with eclectic tastes by creating a space that is beautiful, warm, inviting and stayed within our budget. Sheri brought us great ideas, did not take offense at all if we didn't like something, sought out sales and great pricing from vendors, managed the delivery process, facilitated the ordering process....I can't say enough good things about her. And as we continue to move through our house, redecorating and renovating, we will bring Sheri along every step of the way. Highly recommended!”

“Kathryn’s design expertise and creative energy are extraordinary. She brought our vision to full fruition, resulting in an extensive and comprehensive design plan from paint to furnishings. When construction is complete, we’ll have our dream home for post-retirement years. Kathryn quickly understood our context and vision including our needs, our space, and the appropriate scale that optimized the potential of our new home. Put another way, she effectively blended our more traditional leanings with our desire for contemporary and light driven surroundings. Kathryn not only contributed creativity, but she did so with warmth and patience, all the while pleasantly tolerating our frequent revisions and ambiguities. And if that were not enough, she worked with quick turnaround on those revisions and emerging ideas. She is a real pleasure to work with. On a scale of 1-10, she ranks at solid 10! Without question or reservation, we recommend her most highly. Thank you, Kathryn!”
