Ashley with House Candy far exceeded my expectations when I reached out to her for design help. Not…read moreonly was she very quick getting back to me, she was able to help me work through the best paint colors for my house without even being there. I sent her pictures and told her my vision. She sent me paint samples that arrived next day and I had my colors picked out two days later. If it weren't for her and her expertise I'd still be going down the Pinterest rabbit hole! I can't recommend House Candy Home enough!

Ashley is honestly nothing short of a design genius. I discovered her after she staged a house…read moreacross the street that went from old 1950's rundown carpet and furniture to glittering, gorgeous 2022 "coastal." 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. I can't thank Ashley enough and HIGHLY recommend her. She is a genius! (And she's also a sweet, kind person.

I contacted her on a Monday and she was done with furnishing the rental by the end of the week! Not only did she provide furniture for the entire place, she also took care of art pieces, accent pieces, and even towels and hand soaps for the bathroom. I found her price very reasonable compared to some other companies and while some were charging an extra cost for the design, her design cost was included.

They called me back on their day off and came over even though they were on a day off. They got their quote to me that day, and they were hired. Limelight accommodated my narrow stairs, so they brought pieces to accommodate those needs. Their design was modern and classic mixed. I was very happy with the results. A last but not least, the owner is so friendly, laid back, and calm energy. I highly recommend this staging company, especially for Scotts Valley as they are local. Thanks, you guys!

I had the pleasure to work with Key Impressions for the past year on a recently renovated home I…read morecompleted in Santa Cruz. I really can't say enough about Blain and Nick's commitment to excellence. They were both extremely professional and exceeded every expectation I had in terms of quality, artistic taste, helpfulness along with their undeniable kind natures. Nick and Blain first showed up with consulting advice on colors palettes and contemporary ideas for my remodel. When they offered to help me with any questions I had, they probably didn't think I would take them up on it with the multitude of decisions I had make on this remodel. After all, I'm an engineer and not a home designer that keeps up with the current trends. In walking through the home they added some insights into what would make the home more desirable when it finally went on the market. I took all their advice and it turned out better than I had imagined. The final bonus was their actual staging. Well, these guys hit it out of the park in my opinion. Key Impressions will certainly not disappoint you when it comes to their professionalism, quality, commitment and earnest desire to help! Eric Haya- Homeowner Santa Cruz
