Fine Designs & Interiors, Ltd.

We had a big project of redecorating our first floor home. Melinda was so pleasant and so very helpful assisting me with my selections. Her warm personality and wonderful taste made it so easy. She worked so well with my choices and facilitated getting us contractors outside our realm, all which were so talented and easy to have around the house all summer. I have worked professionally with decorators through the years, but she tops them all. It was so pleasant working with Melinda.

Well, my project started with a 43-year-old kitchen that I wanted updated for the remainder of my life. Where to start was a big issue, and I relied on Melinda and Abigail to guide me through the process. I couldn't have asked for a better team as they considered my input and tried to make happen what I was envisioning. The workers were great, and although it took longer (due to delays not their fault), and cost more (due to my insistence on what I wanted), I am thrilled with the outcome and enjoy my new kitchen and baths. Yes, I went the whole way, and it wouldn't have been possible without Fine Designs and Interiors. Thank you, Melinda, for the great job you did.

I hired Melinda to do it all! She transformed my kitchen/laundry from a 1980’s, dark, minimal storage situation to my dream set up! Through all the hiccups (because my house was built in the late 1800’s) they were professional and fun to work with! She captured my vision perfectly. I plan on doing our master bed/bath next! I will be hiring Melinda to make that happen!

Melinda is great to work with. Listens to what you want. Gives ideas when need help. I’d use her again:)

Melinda and Abigial were great to work with. They guided us through the design prosses and listened to what we wanted. The construction went well. Anytime there was a problem it was quickly resolved. We now have a beautiful kitchen!

I recently hired Melinda's firm to consult on a flooring project in my home. Melinda provided me with superb color and material recommendations, and the contractor she engaged was top notch. During the 2-1/2 week course of the project, Melinda stopped in several times to check progress and make sure small details and finishing touches were done. She even offered to stain a few pieces of trim the night before the final day of work to make sure the color match was as desired. I have no reservations in recommending Melinda for your design consultation.

The Madison County Court House in London Ohio just finished updating the restrooms in the building. Thanks to Fine Designs for helping to keep the style with the age of the building. Melinda work with the contractor and listened to what kind of design we were looking for. When the budget got too high she did not hesitate to help find other products that were more affordable.

London Ohio is very lucky to have a shop like this! Melinda works for you and with you! She has the expertise to "put things together" to make your space look amazing! Melinda and her coworkers make the process flawless!

Melinda is the consummate professional. As an architect and a home-based baker, my wife and I wanted to hire someone for our "kitchen remodel" project that would be able to balance both of our strong design tastes and meld it into a project that would first and foremost suit my wife's needs while also being a reflection of us. Because, we live in a split-level home, the "kitchen remodel" expanded to 3 levels. Ultimately, it has transformed our whole house while keeping a warm comfortable feeling which was our desire from the beginning. Melinda guided the project but also allowed us the flexibiliity in choosing our own touches, like the light fixtures over the island. This truly was a collaborative process from start to finish!

“What a fantastic bathroom remodel!! We worked with Melinda and her professional team on a two bathroom remodel earlier this year. The vision was on point and the result was stunning! Our master bath was a compete remodel down to the studs, with a new Shower Room with lots of shower fixtures, Soaking Tub, Floating Vanity, Heated Floors, Perfect Backlit Mirror, Towel Warmer, Plantation Shutter picture window, and Custom Closet! We also updated our Guest Bathroom with new fixtures and beautiful granite. The result was a WOW! Highly recommend Melinda and her team. We have planned a few more projects down the road as well! ”

Melinda provides the highest quality of services! I have hired her for several jobs and she WOW's every project! I just bought a New House in November and Did it help help! I called Melinda and said I need your help is was on it! Came over with her paint samples and fabric for curtains. Stayed here and answered all my questions and she had it all picked out for me! AMAZING what she did! I would HIGHLY recommend Melinda for any job big or small! She is AWESOME!

Whether you need to update one room or redo the whole house, Fine Designs is THE place for expert help. Some of my friends say, "Hiring a decorator is expensive", but I know I couldn't have done what I needed without them. They asked what I wanted, and then found the materials and workmen to achieve a beautiful new environment for me. I'm an elderly widow, and Fine Designs helped me to stay in my own home. They saved me from expensive mistakes, and all the stress of finding and scheduling workmen. It was a fairly big, costly job, but it sure beats the nursing home! My house is beautiful and I'm so grateful to Melinda and her staff.

We used Fine Designs & Interiors for several remodel projects. They made custom window treatments for our master bedroom, sitting room, bath and dining room. My experience with Melinda and her team was great, they are extremely knowledgeable, talented and a pleasure to work with. I love what they did in each of our rooms and give them the highest rating. I definitely recommend Fine Designs & Interiors and will look to them for future projects.

Melinda's professional services in overseeing my master bathroom remodel were outstanding. She included me in decisions re: colors/materials while being conscious of my budget constraints. As the project moved along, she kept in touch with me and quickly and satisfactorily addressed any concerns I had. I knew I would be satisfied when I sought Melinda's help in the beginning. The final outcome represents my dream come true for a new master bathroom. I will definitely hire Melinda again for any future home remodels.

Melinda and her company, Fine Designs and Interiors, was a pleasure to work with. We had a walkout lower level build project and didn't know where to begin. We never worked with an interior decorator so we weren't familiar with how things were to go. We hired Melinda because we wanted something special on this house level. She came up with fantastic ideas that we would have never thought of. From lighting to flooring material, we cannot be happier! And....it was fun! She took my and my wife's wishes and improved them with wonderful products and design. We've now also used her for window coverings on the main floor and are currently working with her on our family room furniture, placement and accent items. We get so many compliments. We highly recommend hiring Melinda and her team for any projects you are thinking of!

Fine Designs and Interior remodeled the main floor. The project included new quartz countertops, solid wood floors throughout, increased size of master bath with walk in tiled shower and all new custom window treatments. The staff was professional, courteous, and very pleasant. Melinda was wonderful working with our differing styles to pull the project together.

We have completed our second decorating job with Melinda at Fine Designs and Interiors. Twelve years ago she made drapes for three rooms and helped us chose paint colors. Melinda has an amazing eye for color. We just had two bathrooms remodeled and Melinda helped us with the design as well as choosing marble, lighting, cabinets, flooring, mirriors as well as paint colors for 2 bedrooms and bathrooms. We could not be happier with the results. Melinda is a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend her as a designer and decorator.

Highly recommend - A+ Friendly, professional staff who were eager to fulfill my design needs. Offered many fabric choices, and took ample time making suggestions, taking measurements, etc. I'm very pleased with the customer service I received.

Melinda was a pleasure to work with! A true professional, she came up with a perfect design for our window treatments, and helped me find some beautiful fabric! They look amazing, and I have been told our house looks like something from a magazine.

We have used Melinda and Fine Designs numerous times over the past 5 years, originally for our home and then later for our business (we own an event center and have lots of weddings, so everything has to look fabulous all the time). We have always been very happy with her designs, her finished product and her customer service. We originally met her at the home show at the Expo Center and were impressed with her display and she has exceeded our expectations since then. She is great at producing the "wow" factor too, if you want that...our 2-story red silk curtains she made ended up being featured in a local magazine on home interiors. We would highly recommend her!

After contacting several companies to complete some window treatments for me, I was told by all of them that they could not complete my project in time for a deadline I was working with. Fine Designs was my last call that day. Melinda was available to speak with immediately and was at my house within two hours to measure my windows and go over samples with me. My window treatments arrived on time as promised and was well ahead of my deadline. I would highly recommend Fine Designs & Interiors to anyone!

Selected carpet aided by Melinda. Tile installed at entry. Carpet stretched in 3 BR. Excellent exp. with Melinda and installers. LR Carpet is wonderful. Old carpet removed from LR and Hallway.

We had the good fortune to work with Melinda on two home projects. These have included window treatments, hardwood flooring, kitchen counters/ back splash & most recently three complete bathroom renovations. The results are beautiful & we could not be more pleased. Melinda worked with us to determine our likes & dislikes. Her suggestions were always on target. She kept within the budget we had set & always gave us multiple options to choose from. We plan on using her again for our next project & would highly recommend her for any home decor project.

The project was completed Jan/Feb. 2012 The address: 630 Eaton St., London, Ohio 43104' I was (and still am) happy with the work provided by Fine Designs in London, Ohio. Melinda took time to find the right fabrics and suggest the right designs for the valances.

I would highly recommend Fine Designs & Interiors. I hired them to decorate our new bathroom an widow treatments in our kitchen . Melinda came to our home looked at the space an from there on its been a great experience. She found the perfect picture an the most perfect rug an mirror. It has worked out so well that I hired them to do our backsplash an that project has been great. I have found a great decorator an also a good friend.

I have utilized Fine Designs & Interiors to help make my master bedroom mirror my personality and taste! Initially in this do over (2-2008), Melinda made a roman shade with matching cornice board, pillows & recovered a cushion on a window seat storage unit! Everything came out beautifully! She even repaired at no cost to me one of the pillows after my then new puppy chewed on one of the edges! I was so pleased that I had her make a fitted contemporary bedspread. It came out beautifully also! We are currently (2-2013) working on another custom cornice board & roman shade to cover the beveled glass French doors that lead into my master bedroom, recovering two bench cushions, & making a rocking chair slipcover. She utilized the fabric from the window seat cushion to make the new cornice board since that material has been discontinued! She is always on time, full of creative ideas, receptive to your ideas, & willing to break down the project into manageable stages for those with a smaller budget. She will be utilized in an upcoming kitchen remodel! She is talented & fun!

Fine Design has been responsible for 3 small renovation projects at my home including the decoration of a basement living room, 2 bathrooms and replacement of my kitchen floor. I have been very satisfied with the quality of the service/workmanship of all these projects. Fine Design has worked with me during the last 5 years on updating my home: Basement living area, two bathroom revisions and most recently an updating of my kitchen. I recently had granite countertops installed in my kitchen and without Melinda's help it would have been a total disaster. The granite installer made a mistake with the template and she was a tremendous asset in ensuring that they made the job right and provided some compensation for all the hassel. I have come to rely on their workmen and Melinda's ideas.

Melinda Peters Elliot was contracted to redo my family room which in the past had been a drab panelled 1960's looking area which I hated. She hired an amish woodcrafter to construct solid oak cabinets with a built in decorative heatalator fire place along with curio cabinets which cover the length of my family room. I had many items stored in various cabinets which made the room unsightly and cluttered. She was able to draw plans to make use of drawers in the new cabinetry to accomodate videos, DVD's CD's and were made to roll into the outer part of the room for hooking up and checking equipment for the entertainment center. A 50" TV was built in above the fireplace that had originally sat on a huge stand. New carpet in a palm leaf motif was laid and the room had one unsightly wall that faced the crawl space. The amish gentleman quoted a price to build that half wall out of solid bead board tougue and groove oak - I cannot beleive the difference it made. With new furniture added and a new valance on the window that Melinda designed everything feel into place and to the day I am still enjoying the room more than any room in my home. I would highly recommend Melinda for any design or interior consultation and job if you are in need of those services - It only took 1 week from start to finish and in the past if we tried to do it ourselves it would be months of living in a mess, never finishing a lot of the items that we had started. Kudos for a excellent job well done.

I chose Fine Designs & Interiors LTD. I walked into her office with samples of the floor and granite for my new house and she took it from there and did the whole house! I was not on site so we did most everything thru e-mails. She was on time and on cost for everything, and a delight to work with. From the largest item to the smallest detail, I could not have done the project without her.
