Their pricing was reasonable, communication was great, and they were always responsive and quick to answer questions. The customer service really stood out, and the staging design looked amazing.

Unfortunately, we had a very disappointing experience with Delicious Decors. We hired them to stage…read moreour home in the California Casual style outlined in our contract. Instead, they staged the entire home in a completely different Mid-Century Modern style without our approval or communicating the change. Mistakes happen, and we would have been understanding had the situation been handled with accountability and care. Unfortunately, that was not our experience. When we spoke with Penny (the owner) about the mistake, we found the call extremely unprofessional. She focused on blaming miscommunication within her team and was barely apologetic. When we asked if they could expedite the restaging because their mistake was delaying our listing, she said she would "try." When we asked about a partial refund, she said she would "put in a request," despite being the owner. They also told us they would send the new design for approval before restaging, but never did. Ultimately, they corrected the staging, but their mistake delayed our listing by about a week, and they declined to offer any partial refund. The staging mistake itself isn't why I'm leaving a 1-star review - it's how the mistake was handled. Had we received a sincere apology, clear ownership, and thoughtful customer service, I would have felt very differently. Instead, I walked away extremely disappointed by the lack of accountability and professionalism.

My house was never right - the layout isn't the greatest and I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong with design. Ashley came in and identified the issues. She spent time analyzing each room and sent me a summary after we met. She's so good that she will move accessories around herself to get them right - right on the spot instead of leaving it to you to figure out. She literally helped me move heavy furniture because she cares about the end result. I am thrilled with how the house is shaping up now. My house is transformed from slightly off and maybe a little cluttered to stylish now. I was never a fan of the house before but now I think it looks great.

We have a maple Scandinavian dining room set my parents gave us as a wedding present. When the kids…read morewere little years back, the original seat fabric got all stained and nasty with milk, etc. We went to an undisclosed interior design place and replaced the fabric with marine grade vinyl and thick padding. The result was horrendous. The vinyl was tucked, unprofessionally with big seams/creases at the corners, like a do it yourself job. We didn't care at the time - as long as it held up for the next 10 years, we were good. Come 2020 and that vinyl is getting annoying. Our butts stick to them, the chairs noticeably look bad relative to the rest of our furnishing, and most importantly, the kids aren't leaving have half their food on the seats. Santa Barbara Design Center has been here for a while and I stopped in randomly on the way to Home Improvement. I was introduced to Michael, a knowledgeable and personable chap. I showed him an online picture of the original chair, and that I wanted to restore the seat to its original, sleek, sculptural and refined splendor. He said no problem, provided a couple of premium quality fabric books, and we were on our way. We picked out the fabric and brought the chairs in. Michael commented "my god, who did this work?" 50% down and ten days later, chairs were done, with a message "come down and make sure you are happy." My wife and I looked, were pleased - Michael responded with "here's something that bothers me, I want you to see..." He flipped the chair over and on the bottom, the seat fabric was stapled just outside of the underside frame. You wouldn't see it normally, but from a distance or looking down from the side, you might. Immediately we thought the same thing, yeah, that's not ideal. He said it shouldn't be done like this, let me redo it for you, no charge. His upholsterer redid it, and boy those 8 chairs look great, almost better than the original! The seats came out sleek and wonderfully curved over the underlying pad. The fabric is comfortable, soft and elegant - couldn't be happier. The interior of SBDC fills a warehouse space and contains just about everything; furniture, rugs, lamps, etc. The staff were COVID compliant, and Michael was a dream to work with. He has an excellent eye for detail, is easy to work with, and is an honest broker; I wish we had more projects for him!
