Room Transformations
Making homes beautiful has always been a passion for me. I love to transform rooms into beautiful places for my clients to live. My approach is to start with what my clients already own and find a way to make everything look fresh and new. What a joy to see their eyes light up when they see the difference!
Color Consulting
Choosing colors can be confusing and overwhelming ... so many variables to consider!
I love to help my clients find the perfect colors that they love to live with and that blend well with what is already in the room.
Personal Shopping for Furnishings and Decor
You might not have the time to shop for the perfect piece of furniture or rug for your new room. Or perhaps you would just appreciate help with the research and shopping activities. These are the finishing touches that bring a room to life and I would be glad to assist to make sure your final results are all you hoped for.
Move Management
My involvement in move management goes back many years to when my parents decided to move to an independent living facility. What an overwhelming undertaking this can be! Their home needed to be sold. Decisions had to be made as to what to take to their new apartment. What would fit? What would make it feel like “home”? What would they do with everything else?
It has been very rewarding to help others navigate through this process and move into their new homes with a minimum of anxiety. I pride myself on being compassionate, upbeat and flexible … and, most of all, sensitive to the needs of my clients.
Home Staging
Staging a home is very different from interior decorating. The focus is not on designing rooms to please the homeowner, but on making the house appeal to prospective buyers. The goal is to help you sell your home as quickly as possible at the highest price.
Testimonial
I engaged Kathy to help me stage my home in Norwalk, Connecticut for sale, and to help me downsize for a move to Stamford.
I cannot say enough about her enthusiasm, intelligence, skill, talent, integrity and personality. She was a true partner throughout a difficult time.
She helped me make my current home warm and beautiful. She was always on time, and always delivered what she promised, and more. She researched, computerized, and never missed a detail. She was truly incredible throughout. She had terrific knowledge and was thoroughly organized.
She knew local providers to engage. She let me assert myself and each decision was made with both of us.
She continued to help me for several months after the move, and no detail was too small. She understood "feng shui", balance, color, size and comfort.
Please contact me if you have any questions, but she is "A+" in my book, and I cannot recommend her enough.
