Amazing work! Janet did a lime wash painting technique in my bedroom. It looks absolutely gorgeous. Janet took our vague idea of what we wanted and worked with us to determine the perfect colors and technique. Her knowledge of design, paint color theory and techniques was valuable. The end result speaks for itself. Janet is friendly and easy to work with. read more

I contacted Janice about a job. As requested, I sent her photos and video of the work. Radio silence. I called, texted, and emailed her, but she couldn't be bothered to respond. If this is how she treats potential customers, I don't want to know how she treat actual customers. If I could give zero stars, I would. read more

Just like the other reviews, I would give her more stars if I could. I also was in the time crunch, with a checkerboard of samples, and my neighbors and myself where scratching our heads. I knew what I didn't want, but not what I wanted. I needed a modern light color, but not white, taupe, beige or grey. She gave me a choice of 2, and I let my husband pick, and I love it, and my neighbors have complimented the color. We called her back to ask her to just pick the pots, lighting, front door etc and I feel so happy when I drive up to my home. She has a gift. I will be calling her again when we tackle the kitchen. My husband listens to her :-) read more

Unbelievable!! Janice came to my home and helped be select colors and ideas for my remodel. I was going to paint the kitchen cabinets white and bring in that color into a half bath, Janice said don't bring the kitchen into your bathroom. She was so right!! I ended up painting my cabinets a beautiful color she selected and not just white and the bathroom a rich brown. Janice knows what's in and that won't date down the road. I've used a lot of designers in the past but she is really the BEST!!!! I've been a real estate agent for 48 years and recommend her if you want the best!!!! read more

I wish I could give Janice 10 stars! She is an absolute joy to work with. We just had the exterior of our house painted and Janice made the whole process totally painless and created something that makes us so very happy. I have no idea about color and was overwhelmed with the choices. Janice came to our house and recommended 2 colors, we painted the samples, and choose one. And it's perfect! But Janice didn't stop there. She also gave paint recommendations for the gutters, trim, pipes on the roof etc. Every detail was taken care of. She even gave recommendations for a mailbox, house numbers, plant pots etc. She has brought our house to life and I can't thank her enough. She is a wealth of information and the best part is that she so generously shares it all. read more

It's been 5 years since I left my first 5-star review and since then I've had the pleasure of working with Janice two more times. The second time I called her I was faced with an unexpected renovation on my parents' house in The Villages. We'd had the house on the market for more than a month when suddenly we were faced with a burst pipe under the kitchen slab flooring which caused flooding and damage to all the flooring in the kitchen, family room & living room. Plus the sheetrock walls were damaged and some of the kitchen cabinetry. This led to a remodel (which I'd hoped to avoid initially) and I knew I had to get Janice's help. Long story short, Janice picked out an amazing color scheme for new flooring, carpeting, wall color, painted kitchen cabinets and beautiful marble for the kitchen countertops. Then to top that off, we used all her contractor recommendations AND her Real Estate Agent! Everyone was top-notch and for the cherry on top, the house sold as soon as it hit the market and for $300k more than the original asking price! This MORE THAN COVERED our renovation investment and the whole process (with her contractors) went so smoothly! Next, my daughter bought a house in Willow Glen recently and one of my gifts to her was to send Janice over for any advice she might want. Janice helped her pick her colors and my daughter said "she nailed it and I love her!" So finally....all I can say is CALL JANICE! You won't regret it. read more

If there were 10 stars I would give it to Just Faux. Janice of Just Faux is just awesome and fabulous. She had given us excellent color consultation for our house remodeling project. Without her advice we would have navigated to a complete different direction but Janice came to our house during initial consultation and picked out colors from my existing kitchen tiles and gave a complete new direction to the paint choices. Let me tell you that with her paint consultation my house turned out fabulous . She is not only a paint consultant, but an artist. She is an excellent faux painter and she is a master artist at that. Also, she has numerous contacts and very good ones. She connected us to a cabinet maker for our kitchen remodel and that has helped us immensely. Overall Janice is a hidden gem. Her color consultation has given my house the Midas touch and I would recommend her 200 % . read more

Janice's ability to quickly and seamlessly identify the perfect color for an exterior siding contrast, saved the day for my project. Highly recommend. Colorist skills second to none. read more

Janice made choosing our kitchen cabinet color such a breeze! She has a passion for what she does and is clearly an expert in color selection - the process was absolutely effortless. We went from a very common off-white to a lovely, rich gray that has absolutely transformed our kitchen. She was so good, we took advantage of her skill set while she was here and asked her for other design advice. This included wall paint, area rug and sofa color selections, among a few other helpful tips. We are thrilled, and can't recommend her services enough! Janice is a pro and a joy to work with! read more

I custom ordered a bath vanity that arrived looking much different than what I had requested and completely unsuited to the new bathroom decor! I also had purchased a beautiful pedestal table for a great price with a terrible finish, but lots of potential. I was fortunate to be referred to Janice by Jennifer Davis, another amazing and talented paint artist! Janice came to my house, looked at and photographed all of the surrounding materials and decor and created two amazing faux finishes for both pieces! I am thrilled with the outcome and beyond her amazing talent, I found Janice to be one of the most genuine, gracious people I've met. She has an unmistakable generosity of heart that comes through in everything she says and does! Thank you Janice, you transformed two ugly duckling pieces into beautiful swans! read more

I am a painting contractor and use janice for almost every one of my jobs. She is a real problem solver by recommending the right colors to help with clashing hard surfaces so my clients don't have to make costly major changes. She is a real asset for me and my business. read more

Janice did a AMAZING job on my staircase! She is a true artist and brought it to life! I highly recommend her for any of your painting needs. She knows her stuff! Thank you Janice!! read more

Janice is amazing! I knew I wanted certain exterior paint colors but was having a hard time finding the right ones -- every time I brought more samples home, they didn't look like what I was aiming for due to our particular sun exposure, etc. By the time I finally called Janice, I had more than a dozen samples and didn't want to make one more trip to the paint store. When Janice arrived, I showed her what I had tried so far, and explained what I was going for. In a very short time, she selected colors that were absolutely perfect. Given how much time and energy I'd spent trying to find certain shades, I wouldn't have believed someone could find the right colors so quickly if I hadn't seen her do it. (And even though I had the same brands' paint decks, none of the ones she chose were ones I had even looked at!) She also helped me pick some colors for the interior. Janice really is an expert at what she does and since she works with color every day, she's able to hone in on what you're looking for quickly. For exteriors, she takes into account your roof and paving as well as your hardware, and makes sure that what she recommends looks good with those other elements. Inside, she looks at what you already have, and does the same thing. After our visit, she also got samples of the colors she suggested and painted sample boards for me. On top of that, she's an extremely kind person, and generous with sharing other resources since she has a wide network of home-related contacts. We love our new colors and couldn't be happier--it looks like a whole new house. Thank you, Janice! read more

Janice is the best! Professional, yet relatable, and so creative! We would recommend her services 110%! Our fireplace is beyond beautiful. Thank you again Janice. Mike and Marlene read more

Completely overdue, but Janice turned our house into a completely new space! When we bought our house, it has dark accent walls, and bright purple/green bedrooms. She suggested amazing colors that matched our vision for "modern farmhouse" and made suggestions on how we could improve how the room would look through easy changes (ie.making our ceilings look even taller by painting the walls and ceiling the same color, adding height to our bedroom by painting crown molding the same as our walls/ceiling) and had a plethora of amazing vendors on speed dial to help in a pinch. We get comments on how beautiful the paint is from multiple people. Even my husband sings her praises (and he thought I was crazy for even suggesting we have someone come in). The best $ we've spent thus far to update our home! read more

First time writing review on yelp because I really appreciate Janice's help. I did an entire house remodeling and the painter messed up the paint for my walls, trims and doors. Janice helped on picking the colors and referring a great painter to me. Both of them saved my house. Janice is truly amazing and talented. The colors she picked for my house are so nice. I got lots of compliments from people that came to my house and asked about the colors. In addition, the fireplace accent wall faux finish she did is so calming. I just moved in recently and am really enjoying the colors. Thanks Janice. read more

Janice is amazing! She truly has a gift when it comes to color. I have struggled for years to find a paint color that would look good in my kitchen and throughout the house. The backsplash in my kitchen is difficult to coordinate with - most painters I've talked to want to use a color for the walls that makes everything look yellow. Janice took a quick look at my kitchen and the rest of the house, and within minutes she suggested 3 color choices (I was looking for a creamy white color). A few days later, she dropped off paint samples and swatches. I ended up choosing the one that we both liked best, and my house has been completely transformed - from one that had different colors in every room to one that looks clean, fresh, warm, and calm/peaceful! It looks like a completely different house, and I love it! The color looks wonderful in my kitchen - and it toned down the yellow in the backsplash so it looks more neutral/beige. I will definitely call Janice when I'm ready to paint the kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanity. She is so talented and a joy to work with - I am very grateful that I met her. read more

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! I work with color everyday and we are pretty good at picking out colors. But picking colors for the whole house is a pretty daunting task and we wanted to make sure it was right. I just could not believe that we were able to pick out colors for our house in an hour. Janice got to our house and had already done her research on our neighborhood. She got to know us a bit and then we set out to pick the colors. I just couldn't believe that we were able to pick out our colors so quickly! She also gave us ideas and recommendations on other things we could do to jazz up our house. She also worked with our painter Jenn Davis Painting when we wanted slight adjustments. Fast forward another month and she helped us yet again on an amazing color combination for a bedroom. Thank you, Janice. You are amazing. read more

Janice is a wiz with color. Picking a white for our cabinets to go with our newly installed granite became a daunting job. The color Janice suggested was perfect. Pulled it all together! Couldn't be more happy. She also suggested adding additional molding to our cabinets. Made such a difference. She is not only talented but a pleasure to work with read more

Janice has an incredible eye for color. She came to my home and I laid out several ideas of home furnishings and what I hoped to achieve decor and ambiance wise in my living and adjoining dining room. After a couple of days, she got back to me and gave me four different color choices that she thought would work. For me, it came down to two - I had poster size colors of the two hanging from my walls and relocating them at different times of the day on different walls as she suggested! Great idea - I would have never thought of doing that! I then chose THE one. It is absolutely perfect! In addition, she took an outdated dark cherry mahogany curio of mine and turned it into an entirely new piece of furniture completely updated to a driftwood, weathered look - it is beautiful! Her attention to detail was also beyond my expectations; she insisted on coming back and painting the little bit of hardware that existed to an antique silver to perfect the overall look. She's truly amazing! She's artistic, energetic, honest, reasonable and has a fun wit. More importantly, Janice possesses a tremendous work ethic. If you want creative perfection, she's your gal! read more

I was so overwhelmed trying to choose an exterior color for our Spanish style house. I found Janice on Yelp and she is fantastic. We couldn't be happier with the colors and her painting recommendation. So happy to have found her before I went though endless samples, searching for just the perfect white! read more

Janice is so helpful and sweet! We moved into a house with a very Italian style. She helped us select colors for cabinets and walls that worked with our grey/white color scheme that also worked with the warmer existing tiles that we weren't replacing. That was no easy task! She also helped us confirm our choices for countertops and backsplash in the kitchen. Janice also did a fun Strie paint on the back of our bar cabinet, which adds a subtle texture to the area. We love it! (super bonus points because she made time to come and do the painting just days before her wedding and after a trip to urgent care). Janice is great at her job and really cares! read more

We recently had Janice consult on choosing paints for our entire home. She did an excellent job of coming up with a color scheme while incorporating our likes. She was honest in her opinions about how colors would look and was available after the consult for questions. While the color consulting was for the walls, she also had great recommendations for other improvements in our home that would make the house look beautiful. We highly recommend her! Thanks Janice. read more

Not that Janice needs any more 5 star reviews because she gets so much of her business from referrals but she certainly deserves all the stars! We had Janice do some faux finish painting in our dining room and half bath which turned out beautiful and more recently she transformed an old table of my parents I'd been hanging on to into a treasured work of art. Such talent! She is also the nicest person you will ever meet and such a pleasure to work with. read more

Janice of Just Faux is awesome. I hired her to do a color consultation at my new listing. The colors needed were tricky because of the carpet and remodeled kitchen. Janice really took her time to come up with the perfect color combo. She also completely changed the look of the 50+ year old fireplace by painting it white and fauxing it. It was no longer an eyesore. The vibe and flow of the entire house was improved by Janice. The house received 7 offers and sold for way above asking. If you need help with colors, and most people do, don't hesitate and call Janice right now. read more

Janice is fabulous! Our place is small and would not be a big job, but she treated us like a big client and made us feel comfortable right away. We had no idea what to do or how to start, let alone pick colors as we have no clue about decorating.

Give her a ring, you will not be disappointed. read more
