“Thank you for everything…your professionalism with a personal touch, your ” non-pushy ” demeanor, and your exceptional decorating expertise.
John and I are so happy and we appreciate your open attitude in respecting our ideas as well. You will be the first person we call when we “tackle” another room.
We love how our dining room turned out. The murals, beautiful dining room set and the unique carpet with border is exactly what we wanted. Also, John’s office is spectacular. We wish you all the best.”
