Lisa helped redecorate/redesign our living room, foyer, and dining room - and it was the best…read moreinvestment we ever did. Lisa is outstanding! During our first meeting, she listened to our thoughts, was aware that we needed to have a design/home that accommodated our three year old, and had MANY ideas. she was also mindful to our budget for each room. Our home is beautiful, and it's all thanks to Lisa! I can't say enough positive things about Lisa, and I strongly recommend her to everyone I know.

Lisa Jensen is an incredibly talented designer. I have worked with two other designers, and…read moreworking with Lisa was by far the best experience. I did a One Week Room Design for our living room, an area of our house that we have redecorated twice before, spending good money on quality pieces that in the end just didn't work together. I researched local designers and loved her "Before and After photos on her website. For our living room we had all kinds of specifics we needed included in the layout and the details, and she managed to put them all together in a way that works extremely well functionally and looks gorgeous. It is now our favorite spot in the house, whereas before we rarely went into the room. We have now hired her to help us with our Master Bedroom design. You won't be disappointed. I had spent loads of money and time on getting pieces that didn't end up working together before working with her. She is worth every penny. I highly recommend her work!

Monique and her team transformed our house from ordinary to amazing! She rearranged some of our…read morefurniture and decor in ways we never imagined. She brought in really interesting artwork and various figurines that made our home like a showplace! Even our realtor commented that our beautiful home was brought to next level with her staging. For the very reasonable designer fee, we are convinced that it increased our sales price more than 10x the cost of the staging! I would recommend Serenity Designs/Monique to ANYONE considering selling their home.

We called Monique in mid-March, aiming to list out house by the end of May…read more She and her assistant were great: we got a to-do list - which saved us having to argue about the relative merits of his/her taste - and she made a plan for the things that she wanted to bring to freshen up some of the rooms. Once we had done our chores (mid-May), she was back with the loaner items and they set the house up carefully for the photographer, and gave us instructions about how we should re-create the setting before showing the house. She does exactly what she says she is going to do, with a minimum of fuss and I would work with her again in a heartbeat.

I worked with Chris from Cabinet Depot in Salem, NH on the design of my kitchen cabinets over the…read morecourse of last year. It ended up being a longer process for me, spanning several months, but throughout that time Chris was patient and continued to work with me as I finalized the layout and selections. He was knowledgeable about cabinet options and provided helpful input on design and functionality. He was also responsive whenever I had questions or needed to revisit certain details. In the end, I'm happy with how the design came together and appreciate the time he put into helping me get there. If you're planning a kitchen project, Chris at Cabinet Depot is someone to consider.

Everyone else may have had an amazing experience with this designer, but I was put off by the very…read morefirst phone call with Galina. Told her how the last person I went with screwed me over and stole my money and after that I could not get a word in edgewise. I hadn't even told her the full story of what happened and she kept telling me what I should have done, designs that person owes me, how I should get back in touch with that person so that they could give me the partial work they did so I could give it to her, etc. I'm an attorney so I obviously know what I was supposed to do in that situation and what that person owes me. And honestly, none of that is her business but I was conveying what happened to me so she knew what situation I was in and that I needed some reliable. However, she missed that point completely and bogarted the conversation. When I was allowed to speak and partially state what work I wanted done, I was never allowed to get my full idea out before she cut me off and told me what was and wasn't possible and what I should be doing instead. I was glad when the phone call was done and agreed for her to send me a quote via email, which I honestly didn't even open. If that how she was on the very first phone call, I knew the rest of the process would be a nightmare. Definitely not worth it. Found someone else on Thumbtack and couldn't be happier.
