"Heidi was amazing - I can't believe how much we got through in the time allotted. She was able to consult on everything from which specific window curtain fabrics would work with which wall colors to coordination of lighting across the house. She helped me feel more secured in decisions I was considering, and helped me account for issues that I had not foreseen. I highly, highly recommend her for an expert session. You're going to get the advice you need in the session."

"We came to Heidi with a big ask—to help with kitchen cabinetry and overall style of our new home—and she delivered. We discussed materials, style, color, lighting, and fixtures. After our call with her, we feel like we know which direction to go in and how to apply our vision to the rest of the home. Her excitement and encouragement for our project built our confidence as well. We are grateful!"

"I had lots of questions for Heidi regarding my kitchen renovation. She was so helpful in helping me decide on layout, colors, countertop and wall selections, even little questions I had like grout color and tile spacing! She is an absolute gem who took the time to prepare for our meeting so that we could be off and running when our time started. I will definitely book with her again as my project gets underway!"

"Heidi was amazing and really helped drive the convo. She answered all my questions and pivoted when I asked for maybe a different example or options. We moved quickly through my list & she asked important questions that I hadn't thought of before. It truly was an amazing experience and I'm sure I'll be booking another session for another area of my place. I love her style, approach and the way she presented her ideas. I'm excited about the direction we choose & can't wait to see it come to life."

"Heidi was wonderful! I wasn't sure what to expect, as the areas where I need help are sort of mid-project, but she was able to jump in and see immediately the direction I was headed, and help me firm up a real path forward. She is lovely, down to earth and straightforward. We were able to accomplish the 3 rooms I needed advice on in the hour, and I will be booking again, it was such a worthwhile investment. "
