Reviews & Testimonials

Harmonious Spaces came to my rescue to de-clutter our basement and garage recently. Nicole has a very practical approach in organizing and she does bring clarity and harmony to the space once the project is over. One thing I am looking for in that person to help me, I found in Nicole. We were such a good team; she empowered me with her positive attitude. She is very vibrant and personable. She has the energy that I needed to keep me going and finish the task at hand. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs that push to be more organized. I am very happy with the outcome of the project, I am sure my husband will appreciate his space and can finally find what he is looking for in the basement and tool section. Thanks Nicole for a job well done!

From the very first time I met Nicole, she captured my attention with her confident claim that she could organize my office / workspace which reflected my very hectic and often unpredictable responsibilities as the President of the Exeter Area Chamber of Commerce. After a brief initial consultation to understand my needs and work habits, she went to work immediately in a hands-on / take charge fashion. Her disciplined approach of clutter reduction, information organization, consideration of ergonomics and work flow resulted in my office being a much more productive and efficient environment. Certainly, it will be my challenge to maintain the disciplines and organization she put into place for me but, I have already contracted her to return to my office in 30 days for a check up / tune up on how I'm doing. I look forward to her follow up visit!

I recently moved into a new apartment and after moving all my things into my new place, it came the time to arrange things. I spent hours moving furniture around the main room. I was up till 3AM. It seemed like I tried every way possible but still I was not happy with the way things looked. The room seemed cluttered and every way I arranged things there was tight spots in the room. I was exhausted tiring to arrange things and still I was unhappy with the way things looked. I was not even sure it could even be set up to be a comfortable space. Nicole arrived the next day and got to work. At first I was not so sure Nicole understood what I wanted but I stayed out of Nicole's way and let her work her magic and when she was done I could not believe it. No tight spots and everything had a comfortable place in the room. It looked wonderful and was a very eye pleasing and comfortable space when she was done. Even my dog was happy his space in the room the way I arranged things. I tried my dogs bed in 5 different locations in the room an all he did was ignore it but Nicole found a spot for his bed he just loved. Nicole also used my kitchens limited space and she found a comfortable and functional place for all my kitchen things I thought would never fit!

Dear Nicole:

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the high quality work that you provided at my office suite for the interior decorator services that you provided during the course of this month, and to offer this letter of recommendation for other businesses or individuals that may be seeking your services.

What impressed me most was how you were able to read the direction I wanted to go, assess the current state of my office layout, make recommendations based upon the visions that you had for improvements, and then to coordinate the various aspects of the project. This coordination of painters, plant services, furniture selection, delivery and setup took valuable time and effort away from me, while you managed the implementation phase of the project.

During this process, I was impressed with your regular and ongoing communication, including several e-mails about progress, while still allowing me the opportunity to be part of the selection process. You were sending links to me with choices of product recommendations for my final approval, but you had done the research allowing me to easily choose between the available options. All of the choices that you submitted were within my price range, and coordinated with the overall theme in a cohesive manner.

During this process, in addition to ending up with an efficient, productive office environment, clutter was not reduced, but entirely eliminated (my office staff is eternally grateful!), and I arrive at work with a renewed sense of energy and focus.

I feel that the end product is more than what I wanted, even though Icouldn't initially have visualized this. You brought great value to the process, and I feel that the money spent for your interior decorating services represented a very good value, and the amount of time, effort and energy that you put into making this task of organizing this project far exceeded my expectations.

I strongly recommend your services and skills as an interior decorator to others who feel that their time is at a premium, or their vision is not clearly defined, and that you brought an efficient, task oriented, friendly approach to this project. Allow the before/after photos to speak for themselves!

Sincerely,
Michael Clark; Senior Financial Advisor

To Whom It May Concern:

I contacted Nicole to help me with a complete redesign of a bedroom. Due to a lack of space, the room had become essentially a catch all for all of the random clutter that wouldn't fit elsewhere in my living space. The challenge of the project was to increase the utility of the room without compromising aesthetics and reorganize the clutter, while giving the room character.

Nicole took the challenge in stride. First order of business was to ask me what I wanted to achieve with the space. Then, in an effort to personalize the room, she asked me about my hobbies and interests in order to develop a theme. She then presented me with color options... She explained to me in detail how to work with various colors in order to affect mood, and presented several potential storage and organizational options. When it comes to organization, Nicole is a natural.

With the information I supplied, she presented me with several design options, including furniture, layout, window treatments, and storage... The final look, layout, and functionality of the room far exceeded my expectations. Additionally, Nicole was a joy to work with, and always brought an infectious level of enthusiasm to work with her.

Sincerely,
Ron Hoyt
