I have so much many reasons to say "thank you" to you Lisa. My initial project was to find fabric…read morefor two of my chairs. After months of searching and shopping and being unable to find choice, quality fabric that I desired, I decided to stop into your store, Interiors by Bruce. I tried to keep under that radar as I looked around, but your husband, Bruce (aka Chip) started talking to me about your interior design expertise; along with a tour of your upholstery and drapery area. I never intended to work with a decorator, as I was hesitant because of past experiences with decorators. However, based on Chip's rave recommendation of you, I decided to give you a call. I am so very happy I did. It was truly the beginning of the best experience I have ever had working with an interior decorator.
Lisa, you are amazing. You took my two 30 year old Ethan Allen chairs and, not only gave them new life, but a new look as well. Your attention to detail, your creativity and eye for fabric and design is superior. I was so impressed with how easy and fun you made the process, I asked you to help me finish the living room. A year later, you helped me achieve my vision for our family room and sun room. This was not an easy task. At first, husband was not on board with the sun room redo as he did not think it necessary (of course he didn't!). Upon completion of the sun room, I'll never forget when my husband came home and saw the room completed (accessories and all). He immediately called you to tell you how glad he was that he decided to redo the sun room because it was more beautiful than he could have imaged (ha, ha, like it was his idea in the first place!!).
Lisa, even though you and I worked together on the majority of selecting the furniture, fabric and upholstery decisions, my husband said he also enjoyed his level of involvement because of you. The reason for this is because what is especially important and what we really appreciated is that you listened to us - to our likes, our dislikes and "guided" us through the process when we were unsure. You never imposed your design ideas upon us. If we really did not like a fabric, you took it out of the mix without making us feel as if we did not have any taste in style and design. But on the other hand, when you thought a fabric was really going to work and worth taking home with us to look at it again in our environment, you would slip it into our bag and say "just give it a chance". We would take the fabric home, look at it, and come back with smiles and say "okay, you were right". You worked hard to find and give us what we wanted.
Another area of your expertise is your ability to accessorize a room and pull it all together. Lisa, your creativity and design is intrinsic. You have completely redone three major room in our home; living room, family room and sun room. Again, you made the process easy, fun and stayed within our budget. Thank you for helping me transform our house into a beautiful, welcoming home. The entire experience of working with you and your upholstery and drapery staff was truly a pleasure and money well spent.
