After seeing her portfolio, I was a little self-conscious about my very "normal" place, but Ammie immediately made the process comfortable and collaborative. She created a clean, cohesive design plan, helped me review painting and carpeting quotes to make sure pricing was reasonable, and recommended furniture options across different budgets. Everything felt practical, thoughtful, and easy to execute. The space looks completely refreshed now. I'm very happy with the result and would absolutely recommend Ammie.

I'm so glad I found Ammie to work with on remodeling my first home! She responded so quickly when I…read morereached out for an inquiry and took the time to answer all my questions. 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! :)

Working with Misti at Style Haven Interiors was one of the best decisions we made during our home…read moreproject. I reached out to her during what had become a surprisingly stressful paint selection process, and she immediately brought clarity and calm. She responded quickly to my inquiry, provided a clear one-price quote, and made scheduling incredibly easy so we could stay on track. Misti was thoughtful, insightful, and very personable. She took the time to consider our existing finishes, furniture, lighting, and overall feel of the home before making recommendations. She also has a really smart method for evaluating paint colors in different lighting, which made a huge difference in helping us feel confident in our final choice. In the end, we went with the color she recommended and ended up painting the entire rest of the house in it. We're so happy with how it turned out and truly grateful for her steady guidance during a moment when I really needed professional reassurance. If you're feeling overwhelmed by design decisions or just want an expert eye on your space, Misti is absolutely worth it.

I have hired 1st Stage for multiple properties over the years. In the past, they generally did…read moregreat work and I was impressed with their staging style, professionalism, availability, and pricing. That said, my most recent experience was disappointing. I had them stage a modern townhouse in Costa Mesa near the beach. Unfortunately, the staging style they chose did not match the aesthetic of the property at all. I am not a designer, so I typically trust their vision and let them take the lead. This time, I reached out to their team and simply asked if we could swap out a few items to make the space feel more modern or beachy. I was told I would need to pay a restocking fee. That response was frustrating. I had referred them many jobs and clients in the past, and while the fee itself was not a large amount, it felt unnecessary and left a bad impression. They did eventually waive the fee, which I appreciated, but the situation already felt mishandled. Fast forward a bit. The property did not sell, and I requested that it be de-staged. Their team came out a few days later and removed the furniture. A few months after that, they emailed both me and my client, who was the actual party to the staging contract, claiming there was a prorated balance due for a few extra days the furniture remained in the home. The amount was under $400. The contract was between my client and 1st Stage, not me, so I was confused as to why I was included. Shortly after, Mark Sutton emailed me directly asking if I could take care of the payment by the next day. I found that extremely unprofessional. Agents are the ones who bring them business, and asking me to personally pay an invoice that had nothing to do with me showed a real lack of business judgment. I expressed my disappointment with their customer service, and the only response I received was a payment link. If you are looking for a stager who truly feels like a partner and values long-term relationships, I would think twice before using this company. In my experience, once an issue arises, you are treated like just another number, and preserving relationships does not seem to be a priority.
