SHELLEY RODNER DESIGN / DDI

Shelley's guidance and recommendations were a true asset when we started several recent renovation projects in our home. We couldn't have done it without her. She was able to work with us in stages which was important to us budget and time wise.

When it was time to update our condo, I had no idea how to even begin. I decided to "splurge" and hire a decorator for a quick consultation to get me started. After our first visit, I realized that working with Shelley was going to be a blast, and in the end more cost effective than trying to piece things together on my own. She was so patient with me as we worked through colors and textures and was very skilled at guiding me to understand my own "style". I love the results - it really feels like "my" space. I'll definitely contact Shelley again just as soon as it's time to tackle the next project.

Shelley was recommended to us by another designer/decorator we had used in Wilmington, and I'm so glad we contacted her. We wanted new draperies for our home and after our initial visit, Shelley immediately grasped the style I was going for in our home. When she returned a few weeks later with her recommendations, we were thrilled. She nailed it!!! Once the selections were made, the delivery was earlier than expected (yeah!) and Shelley and her installer were onsite within days to hang the draperies. They look as lovely as she promised. Shelley is very easy to work with, great communicator and explains things all along the way. I highly recommend her and look forward to more projects!

Shelly did a great job assisting us in picking out drapes for our bedroom. Her taste helped compliment the other furnishings. Very happy with the hangibg and finished project. Would recommend Shelley if you need a good decorator!

We have been using Shelley's decorating expertise for more than 15 years. She is truly a professional in her field. She has worked with us in so many different areas--whole rooms, furniture, color, wallpaper, window treatments, fabrics, and accessories. The contractors that she uses are equally professionals in their fields. Shelley gets to know her clients' tastes. Recently, I was looking for a mirror and a lamp to complete a project. She gave me several choices of each and, when I made my selections, she confessed that she knew which ones I would choose. I get many compliments on my home--but I always have to admit that it is because I worked with Shelley.

Working with Shelley has been fabulous! She has guided us through remodeling our kitchen, selecting new flooring for our entire first floor, and choosing a color pallet for each room – then furnishing everything. The rooms range from dramatic (kitchen) to elegant (formal living room) to casual (family room) – each style distinctive, yet all blended and coordinated, transitioning smoothly from room to room. The products Shelley brings in are beautiful and of high quality, but she gives equal consideration to comfort, practicality, and flexibility. For every decision, she provides samples and options, explaining what to look for and what to avoid. For items we find or install ourselves, she provides invaluable advice on industry standards and best practices. She knows experts in every field and recommends exceptional tradesmen. Shelley’s ability to orchestrate a space - to pick the perfect color, the exact detail, the right texture - is magical. But equally valuable is her work ethic: she responds always and quickly; she’s on time; she’s prepared; she keeps a record of all our discussions and decisions; she follows up. Meetings with Shelley are fun and overflowing with exciting visions of possibilities. Of all the things on my calendar, my favorite is “Shelley Rodner.”

We’ve been working with Shelley on our complete reno of a beach condo in Bethany. She has been amazing and we can not imagine doing this without her. Her vision with furniture and color has been exactly what we needed and her willingness to provide impromptu guidance along the way so supportive. Shelley has been the partner we were looking for - we can not wait to see the completed project. It will be amazing!

We have been working with Shelley for many years. We can't say enough about her expert guidance and professionalism. She has walked us through projects, big and small, displaying her design talent. She listens very well and is not pushy. She guides us with choices of "what will work" leaving the final desicision to us. On a personal level, we have found that Shelley reduces our design related anxiety and disagreements! She expertly naviagtes the different design opinions we may have as a couple. After her consultations we always feel a sense of relief that she has put us in the right direction. Renovations, furniture purchases etc are an expensive investment. We feel Shelley's knowledge has prevented us from making costly mistakes. We highly recommend Shelley!

If you are looking for a home design update, you cannot go wrong with Shelley Rodner Design! Our project was refurnishing the outdated interior of our beach house living room. Shelley's suggestions were tasteful and varied enough to provide a range of possibilities, including fabric samples and color palettes,. Her business acumen is incisive: she has well-sourced supply chains, and a team of reliable delivery facilities. Finally, she is personable, enthusiastic, and fun to work with. Our new furniture will be installed soon --- and I CAN"T WAIT!

Shelley is the BEST! My husband and I used her services about 10 years ago for Window Treatments, flooring, etc and are currently seeking her expertise again for some other home projects. Knowledgeable in all areas of decorating and design, a great listener to your needs and honest with recommendations of what may and may not work. Shelley it’s a professional and down to earth and easy to work with. We highly recommend her guidance for any project you may have. Debbie and Bruce Davis Ocean View, DE

Shelley has been working with my family and friends for the past 20 years. We are currently working on decorating my new home in Fenwick Island, Delaware.

She fills me in almost weekly. Shelley is a pleasure to work with. Courteous and polite and always on time (if not early!) Always keeping in mind my budget. I would ask no one other than Shelley Rodner to help with stunningly creative ideas for my home. She is the best!
