I stumbled upon this store way back in February/March during the Van Wert Chocolate Walk. It was on of the stops and the moment I walked in the store, i gave an audible gasp. This place was beautiful! The decor was amazing! I was immediately imagining how it would look like in the house i was buying. I knew at that moment this store was dangerous... because it would separate me from my money in no time! I spoke with the owner of the store, Joanne, when i found out that they also did drapes. My new home came with some awfully garish drapes... purple drapes!?!?! Black drapes for a dining room? Ridiculous! I needed some new drapes and Joanne promised me she would show me some great options. She came to my new home and measured, she came up with someone wonderful ideas. During this time i also found out she was an interior designer. I just hired her to help me decorate the home and get me new drapes and decor to make my home beautiful. This was a great decision! Joanne has impeccable taste! She listens and understands the type of style her customers have... she then takes that and brings pieces that tastefully use that style to adorn and enrich your home. So much of my home decor now is from her store! I love how beautiful my home is!!!! Love it!!!!! If you are looking to change the drapes in your home... this is the place! If you need new decor for your home... come here! If you need an awesome interior designer... call Joanne! I am so thankful that u stumbled onto this incredible business during the chocolate walk!

I contacted Cindy years ago when I needed help getting my house in order after my son moved out. I…read morewanted my home to look nice without breaking the bank, and no matter what I bought or did it never looked right. At the same time, I didn't want to do whatever someone else told me to do. Cindy is AMAZING! She gets a feel for who you are and what your tastes are in a very short time. She's also very strategic about her work. She helps you plan from the broad to the specific, and works with the flow of the whole house as well as individual rooms. She is BRILLIANT at color and lighting, and does all of the legwork to find other materials that complement the project. She came back with a range of recommendations that all reflect what we discussed. (At the time I was redoing all of the rooms in a small home on the West side). Everything was completely affordable and in almost every instance I went with her suggestions. Shortly after doing all the work I put the house on the market and got RAVE reviews on everything. When I moved into my new home, we needed to paint and do a few other upgrades. Again, Cindy came to the rescue and ten years later, I'm still getting complements on the paint colors and other advice she gave me. She's now helping with a kitchen facelift, and I'm so grateful to have her guidance. I've learned a great deal about how to pick things and make them work together in the time I've spent with her. For big projects she'll always be the first person I call. Not that we agree on every detail, but she always gives me the "best practice" so that I have a foundation for making my choices. Cindy is COMPLETELY affordable and worth every penny.
