Chris helped us stage our home for a Spring sale and we had an offer the next day (no joking)! Chris had a gentle and methodical way of working with us going room to room that allowed us to listen to feedback from her, take notes and then make the changes we needed to make to appeal to buyers. I posted before and after pictures of one of the rooms we worked on which is the family room. The before pictures with the red fireplace belong to the former owners (we are the second homeowners). We hadn't changed the home too much until we decided to sell. The after pics show Chris's amazing touches such as the new and lowered mantle which hides the TV cables and putting the window mullions/grids away to see the view. Chris is easy to work with, on time project deadlines and communicates promptly through various methods. She's kind and thoughtful as well as creative and I can imagine that with her creativity she can help anyone working within any budget.

We were exploring purchase of a sofa sectional. We had a specific not to exceed size that was needed. We had a requirement that the cushions be soft and flexible and not firm. Chris researched a variety of manufacturers and was able to zero in on one manufacturer that would meet our needs. Chris then requested the manufacturer send a cushion that we could test out. We selected a number of fabrics to consider and Chris offered advice on the fabric samples. We placed our order, and the sectional sofa has been delivered. We are extremely happy with our purchase and we would highly recommend Chris as the person who can deliver your dream vision. She goes above and beyond in meeting your needs and really listens to what is important to you.

Working with Chris is fun and productive. Chris has great ideas but if I see something I like she helps me see if it will work or not.
She is not pushy but you can trust her with something new you may not have thought about before. She steered me toward my overall vision. Many of my pieces have been deliver and my husband and I are very happy with our choices! Thanks for all your help Chris!

I found Chris on HOUZZ and she did an amazing job thus far! She spent time with me at our house evaluating what she was working with, then we met at the store and she helped to select just the perfect items for our house. We are still tweaking some items but only because I am in the process of moving into a new home.
One of the other reasons that she is so amazing is that she really tries to make me AND my husband happy. We don't necessarily always agree on items or styles so she is a great buffer. So, if you need a second opinion, this is the way to do it.
I highly recommend Chris for your next project!!!!

Chris did a great job helping me find just the right furniture for my new beach house. I knew what I was looking for and she was able to help me find the sofa and tables I needed to complete the look I wanted in my home. I'm very happy with the comfort, durability, and price that Chris helped me find.

Chris is an excellent designer and stager. I have experienced her skills in both areas. She has a straightforward approach that takes the emotion and stress out of conceptualizing your preferences into a perfect interior. As a stager, she is able to efficiently and creatively turn your house into a perfectly staged home for selling.

Chris did a great job listening to what we were looking for it our remodeling and helped us pick from a variety of samples that she picked out based on our ideas. She had a good eye for design and a great relationship with her vendors that she recommends so they are eager to work with her (a plus when you have multiple vendors involved). She was patient with me when I was indecisive and always had time for questions. I would highly recommend her!!

Chris was friendly and easy to work with. After assessing our needs, she created a well-thought-out plan. She helped guide us with fabric selections for our custom order and insured all details were covered. On the few occasions when manufacturer specs were confusing, she worked hard to resolve the discrepancy to find us solid info. It was obvious Chris wanted us to be completely happy with our final outcome and we're thankful she helped guide us along the way.

We had the pleasure of meeting and working with Chris at Klingman's in Holland. She helped us design and select new pieces for our new home. She helped us to think outside the box, complement what we already had and brought our new home to life. We highly recommend Chris!
