Color Consultation Back to Top

Color has amazing power! Emotionally, it can evoke memories – some comforting and nostalgic while others may not be so pleasant. Color can even influence our physical well-being. In fact, color theorists can evaluate our personalities by our color choices.

So, what color are you? What style and ambience would you like to exude in your home? Are the colors on your walls and in your fabrics working for you? Are they working together?

Whatever concern you may have regarding color, let’s walk around your home and talk about the areas of your rooms and your lifestyle you would like to address. Sometimes just a simple color change on a wall or in accessories can make all the difference!

• Fee: Consultation (average 1-2 hours) $75
• Due and payable at the completion of service. Cash,check or money orders only, please.

Designer Tip:

If you're having a hard time deciding new color schemes refer to the exterior paint charts in the home improvement stores. These charts usually show 3 colors that will work together and in correct proportions to one another.

Open House Services Back to Top

Inspection: Prior to your scheduled Open House, I will come in and inspect your property to ensure that all of the staging that has been done has been maintained. If necessary I will move some furnishings back into place and “tweak” the details, such as clean the fingerprints from the wall or remove your child’s bike from the yard. Elements that can easily be overlooked by the homeowner, but always noticed by potential buyers!

• Fee: (average of 1 hour per showing)  $75
• Due and payable at the completion of service. Cash, check or money orders only, please.

Assistant: You may also like to have me present at your Open House. I can help your agent by offering added security just by my presence in areas of the house he/she can not be in. With my in -depth knowledge of your home, I can answer buyers’ question about the features of your house. Naturally,  I would always refer buyers to your agent regarding any money or purchase issues.

• Fee: (average 1-4 hours per showing) $175
• Due and payable at completion of the Open House. Cash, check or money orders only, please.

TIP:

“In order for an open house to be effective at getting buyers off the fence, you need to have had potential buyers come through the home already. That means, don’t hold an open house the first week your home is on the market. Wait at least until the second or third week before scheduling one.” –Julie Dana and Marcia Layton Turner , Staging Your Home to Sell

DIY (Do-It-Yourself) Consultation Back to Top

Whether you are seeking some general decorating advice or would like specific guidance in helping your own redesign efforts, this service is for you. You and I will tour the room(s) you wish to redecorate and discuss problem areas, highlights, and your taste, lifestyle and décor goals. Areas of consultation could include furniture arrangements, color choices, lighting, etc. By the end of our appointment I will give you a customized “to-do” and reference list so you are able to have direction and stay the course as you implement your redesign.

If you prefer, or if you are located too far away for me to come to your home, you can contact me for my on-line consultation service.
