"Wow!!! When I walked in I could not believe how wonderful
everything looks -- is this really my place?? All of the furniture
is absolutely perfect. Thank you so much. You have done an amazing
job. I am so so happy!!!
. . . You are truly very talented as all of your choices have
been bang on. I definitely get the wow factor when I walk in
to my place. It is also very comfortable, cozy and welcoming
which is something I really wanted. I haven't decided what my
favourite thing is as I love all the pieces."

"It's so rare to work with a professional who really cares
. . . someone who cares about fit, about budget, about timelines
and about people. Mary took the time to understand how we would
use the room. She probed with questions that made us really think
about its use, today and into the future. She wanted to make
sure we were looking long-term when it came to colour choices
and accessories. She wandered our house and observed how we lived
to gauge our personality to create the right "look and feel".
All these unique techniques Mary used truly made it a pleasure
to work with her. Not only did she transform an important room
in our house, but managed to offer advice and value-add on other
aspects of our home. We enjoyed shopping together for the finishing
touches. And, she worked well with "Mark the painter"
and all the other suppliers who helped to create our lovely living
& dining room. I know that in the years to come we'll manage
to find other "excuses" to work with Mary . . . oh
yeah, and transform other living areas in our house too!" |

"I had a small kitchen with limited cupboard space. My budget
was limited yet I wanted a new look. Mary designed a kitchen
that provided with both a display area for my dishes, as well
as enough space for everything else. I had not wanted to replace
my appliances as this time so Mary worked with me to select cabinetry
that created a feel of warmth and style.
The prospect of choosing materials for backsplash,
countertop, etc. was daunting, but Mary helped to make this an
enjoyable task. She selected a few samples based on discussions
with me and then I was able to choose what I liked best. I now
have a kitchen that I love and all of this within the budget
that I had planned.
Mary's expertise in selecting colours and materials
is reflected in my new kitchen. I would recommend Mary to anyone
who is considering remodeling big or small. She is great to work
with." |

"I have never had any interest, inclination or talent in
or for interior decorating. However, having purchased a new condominium
unit in a building to be constructed, I realized I needed guidance
and advice from a professional in this field.
I required Mary's services for selecting living room
/ dining room furniture and completing the colour and upgrades
selection with my builder.
From my initial contact with Mary by e-mail, which
she responded to promptly, and in all our meetings and subsequent
e-mails, either to discuss the process or look at furnishings,
Mary has understood my specific requirements and in particular,
my limited budget.
Mary has taken a process that I had expected to be
overwhelming, intimidating, confusing and tedious and has made
it a pleasurable experience. She has provided me with excellent
advice throughout and has managed to calm my fears with patience
and her well-rounded knowledge and experience in interior decorating.
I highly recommend Mary for any decorating challenge
you may have, big or small." |

"I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the wonderful
job you did in redecorating my new home. Your service was "all
inclusive" in that you were there in the planning stage
right through to the final touches. The outcome was magnificent.
This view was shared not only myself but my family and friends.
You were able to factor in my busy business hours, lack of previous
experience in decorating and purchasing home furniture and you
came up with a house that felt like a true home. And you did
this all within budget!
As a result of my experience with you, I would have
no hesitation whatsoever in recommending your services and would
welcome any inquiries by any of your future potential clients." |

"...thanks and appreciation for creating a beautiful home
for us. Almost a year later, and I still can't get over how wonderful
everything looks, and how functional everything works.
Thank you for your help and patience in leading us through
the decorating process. You took into consideration our family's
differing needs and desires, presented us with great ideas, narrowed
down our choices and options, gave us space to make decisions,
and kept us on track with our budget and timeline.
It was a real pleasure working with you, and we look forward
to working with you again on our next decorating project!"

"(The kitchen manufacturer) referred someone to come and
see my kitchen yesterday. She loved it, and asked how I was able
to coordinate everything so well. Of course, I gave her your
name . . . She said my main floor is so magnificent, that if
I went to sell the house, it would sell in one day. She has friends
who have my model of house, and she said you would never believe
it was the same house. Thanks again for all your help." |

"I was referred to JUST the THING by some friends whose
new apartment I found quite charming. Being in a similar situation
of having to down-size from a much larger home, I decided to
consult with her during the construction phase of my new condo.
From my floor plans, Mary developed a design concept for me to
suit my new lifestyle and make the most of the limited space.
When the time came to choose the finishes for my suite, she accompanied
me to the design center to assist in selecting materials to complement
the look we were after.
Planning ahead of time allowed us to edit my belongings,
refurbish the pieces I would keep, and take delivery of new pieces
in time for the move. As a result, the transition was smooth
and relatively stress-free. Since then, Mary has continued to
assist me with the finishing touches.
I love what we have created together, and have had
many compliments from my friends and family on my warm and inviting
new home." |

"I want to express my gratitude to Mary for working
with me to make my home a comfortable and beautiful place to
be. I have worked with Mary for many years and have always found
her to be creative, honest, efficient, practical and mindful
of my budget. She has worked with me, respecting my personal
taste and those things that are important to me. The result is
always both stylish and practical. Often, simple rearrangement
of furniture, personal items or pictures has made a room seem
fresh and new. The results have definitely stood the test of
time!
Mary's creativity never ceases to amaze me. She has
an excellent eye for colour and fabric. I continue to get compliments
on window treatments that have been in place for some years.
Mary's eye for organization considering our family's needs makes
life easier. She works hard and always responds in an efficient
and timely manner. I have recommended Mary to friends and family
members. Each prefers different styles but everyone has been
very satisfied. I look forward to working with Mary for many
years to come." |
