She was very punctual in all our meetings. I have a very busy work schedule but she worked around my timetable. She had great ideas that met my budget. She was extremely organized and was always ready to roll up her sleeve and get down to work. She transformed my living space from blah to a fabulous and chic model home. I've hosted dinners for friends and everyone had great things to say about the decor and comfort and overall ambience. Thank you Nadine. I love the transformation you created. Until next project!

They have been professional, flexible, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. I received a follow-up from my inquiry very quickly, we met for an assessment, and it was to easy to handle the payment for their services. I was a bit anxious (haha, that's an understatement- I was freakin' out!) about letting people "see behind the curtain" but they made me feel incredibly at ease and didn't make me feel judged for years of clothing build-up and lack of organization. The best part was how self-sufficient and autonomous the team was, which made all the difference for me trying to juggle a demanding job and childcare, etc. The team will work with YOU to understand how you function in your space- and then make sure that whatever system is put in place supports your usual routine!! Here's the key: they do this so the work they do can be easily maintained going forward. This is an investment into your home, your wellness, your sanity, your relationship... and so much more! We're already booking I-deal-lifestyle for the next project - our Kitchen! My only regret is having not called them sooner. In the meantime, I will be diving into Marla's book, The Clutter Remedy, to be reminded of what I've learned so far, and to keep up my beautiful and organized space. I've only read the first chapter and I am already just so happy that I invested into myself. Thank you Marla + Team at I-deal-lifestyle!

(SINCE POSTING THIS REVIEW I HAVE RECEIVED NUMEROUS CALLS & TEXTS FROM MARLA THAT ARE HARASSING &…read moreTHREATENING, EVEN CALLING MY EMPLOYER) I used Marla and felt the job and talent was oversold. Marla is quick to brag about unrelated job credentials. I should of known then. I have used professional organizers before and was very happy. Never a problem! *Further, I am insulted buy her comments & insinuations after posting this review which are absurd and lame excuses. No one babysat my teenage son or my little girl! And for 30 hrs?! Really? This woman is nuts! Even one of her workers told me she was crazy!) My nanny and my other hired workers witnessed her poor service and commented on it every time. Yes, MY NANNY who was full time -child care for my daughter was always present- Not strangers I hired to unpack & organize my home. Absurd! The college girls chose to play with my daughter. It wasn't anything I asked for or preferred. I hired them for a specific job totally unrelated to my kids- what an insult to suggest otherwise. And, I did assist when asked- wasn't sickly or absent- just exhausted after this drama experience. *Based on Yelp reviews I decided to try Marla for a 2 bed, 1000 sq ft move into a 3 bed, 3 bath 1700 sq ft brand new, high-end gated community home 15 miles away. The job was to pack my home, move me into the new home, unpack and organize my new home so that I could be moved in quickly and not interrupt my work schedule. Marla assured me they were trained and could do this seamlessly without having me manage the job or interfere with their work. It was all clear and agreed prior to hiring Marla. No surprises on my end. I am a busy, professional single mom so I had no issue paying for and hiring a professional to make my life easier. **I wasn't seeking a cheap solution rather a much needed professional service. I have no problem paying for quality. If I was looking for budget I would of hired the desperate men in front of Home Depot! Marla was never present and although her team is very nice, they are NOT professionally trained organizers. Her team is just young college kids who did pack my house quickly... That was great but NOT organizational pros. Proof is in the photos I will attach to this review. (Somehow photos were taken off Yelp?! That's suspicious!) they just showed lack of organization- nothing more. Marla suggested I use her team to actually move instead of a moving company. The move was to be expected with their limited moving experience however I was still satisfied. Didn't feel money was wasted. I saw the labor and effort however it was nothing to refer or brag about. Things changed once I moved into the new home. It was agreed to unpack my home and make my home look very neat & organized. Marla bragged of feng shui experience and other ideas I liked. Her team packed my home so I assumed by the labeled boxes they would know where things basically belong... Being a professional organizing company. Basically unpacking consisted of just opening boxes putting items alla wherever, and leaving piles of boxes and trash in front of the home. I had to re-do the unpacking and organizing that was done. Even a simple linen closet is linens taken straight from the box, not refolded. Looked like they were flung onto the shelves. My kitchen was unpacked by the nicest girl but items were not well thought out as they were put away so the flow of the kitchen is totally off. Things were unpacked without any thought. No order. The crew claims they worked hard and the house didn't have enough space however this is a much larger home then from where I moved- double in size in an upscale gated community. My prior home was not cluttered and was a much smaller space. I had very little stored in garage so the excuses were not adding up. I understand moving is challenging but this was a job going downhill quickly. The unpacking and organizing was not high quality at all. My new home was left with boxes still in the garage pilled high and furniture never made it to the correct rooms. After 2 days of unpacking with Marla's company I decided to cancel the rest of the work. I just wanted them out! I feel after nearly $2000. That this was absolutely unacceptable and unprofessional and I was being duped. Over promised, over sold and under delivered. I didn't want to continue paying them for sloppy work although would have continued to pay them to finish the job if they were worth it. A professional moving company would of been less expensive and would of done the same quality of work or better...I was looking for ORGANIZATION & QUALITY and willing to pay for it. Since Marla I hired a real certified company and the difference was monumental

I had tried several AI tools before, but without accurate measurements, they weren't very helpful. Her precision made a huge difference. * Flexible options for every budget She provided multiple options (low, mid, and high-end), which helped me visualize different directions while staying within my budget. * Great collaboration & support My ideas changed quite a bit during the process, and I requested several updates after the initial design. She was patient, supportive, and always improved my ideas with thoughtful suggestions. * Very responsive She replied quickly whenever I had questions or needed advice, which made everything smooth and stress-free. * Cost-efficient & transparent pricing Her pricing is clear, and she delivers excellent value for the quality of work. Overall: If you're detail-oriented, have a specific vision (or even if you're still figuring it out), and budget conscious, I highly recommend Ammie!

She never pressured me while I was still considering whether to get an interior designer or not, and she was very upfront about her costs and services. She made the whole process really comfortable. When Ammie came to see the space, she had an eye for making the house a home. She immediately knew to recommend adding a kitchen island. This was something I was actually going back and forth on for a really long time, and I had so many people telling me not to do it and how it would look weird or there wouldn't be enough space in the kitchen, etc. After renovations, I'm so glad we got an island because it's functional and it really elevates the space, I love it. All her measurements and recommendations are spot on. Ammie took a lot of stress and weight off my shoulders because I knew whatever she recommended was in my best interest and aesthetic. I also asked so many questions and she was always prompt to answer. 10/10 recommend working with Ammie on your next design project. Thank you Ammie! :)
