I met Kim about 10 years ago at a cabinet showroom and after speaking with her for awhile, hired her to help me give my bathroom a make-over. The house was built in the 60’s and most things had not been touched. I had never worked with a designer before, but she was very easy to talk to and made me feel comfortable having her work on the job. She answered my questions, asked me questions as well and had a great way of communicating her thoughts so I could make decisions. She started out the project by asking me what my favorite colors were and what types of things did I really like. With those answers, she created a stunning new bathroom for me. I couldn’t believe the transformation and neither could any of my friends and family that came to see it!

After that, I asked her to see what she could do with my kitchen. It was as old as the bathroom and I wanted it to be more updated. I had a stencil on the walls that I really love and Kim worked it into the new kitchen design. I couldn’t be more pleased with how it looks and how easy it is for me to cook in and keep clean. Not only did she do all the design, she helped me hire the contractor, helped me get the materials we needed for a great price and managed the entire project for me. If there were any problems on the site, Kim worked with the contractor to solve them so that things worked out properly. She also designed a new outdoor shelving unit for my decorative flower pots and a new pergola for my patio that is right outside the kitchen. Now I don’t lose any pots when we have bad winds and the new design works so much better.

Then it was on to my bedroom and ensuite bath. We fixed some issues in the bedroom and put new tile and paint in the bath. Again, I love the finished look. The soft aqua color she chose and the accent tiles around my tub are beautiful and very soothing.

The last project we worked on just in the last couple of months, was to pick a new color for the exterior of my home. Kim selected the perfect color to work with the existing brick on the house. Even my neighbor came over to tell me how great the house looks.

I’m thrilled with all of the projects we have worked on in my home. She really listens to you and I would highly recommend working with Kim on any design project you are considering.
