Design Consulting

Are you only trying to pick paint colors?

Do you have a notebook full of design ideas but have no idea how to pull them together into a single room?

If consultation is all you want, Rebecca is delighted to provide the guidance and visualization necessary to help you develop and execute your own plan.

In a couple of hours, she'll help you select the perfect paint palette for exterior or interior .

In two to three hours, Rebecca can discuss your decorating project with you and then you can do it yourself - with confidence and abundant resources.

Earlier this year, Rebecca worked with a client to choose all the finish elements for their new home.

This client is a dedicated do-it-yourselfer. She loves to shop, and was clear about what she liked, but she had so many choices that she could not make a decision, and didn’t know how it would all work together. She was buying most of her own fabrics, so needed guidance -- on everything. Rebecca supplied lots of advice, plus a few textiles, and brokered her reupholstery.

At the first meeting, the client shared a dozen fabric samples that she really liked, along with pictures of rooms that she liked. The pictures alone made the whole process easier and quicker.

She and her husband purchased a new house still under construction, so they were able to select their hardwoods, carpets, tiles, and counter tops during their consultation with Rebecca. It’s the biggest house they’ve lived in.

Rebecca consulted while:

  • They drew a furniture plan to know how and where the furniture would fit
  • Selected new furniture for the home office, the living and breakfast rooms
  • Chose fabrics for her sunroom furniture, the playroom, studio, the dining chairs, and the master and guest bedrooms
  • Settled on styles and fabrics for window treatments
  • Selected paint colors for both floors of the house
  • Decided on sizes for area rugs in living, dining and sun rooms
  • Designed an ottoman and bench to have made
