Process

Getting started is easy.

There is an $85.00 consultation fee for the first hour.  On the second visit to your home, I will bring a color or sample board of the ideas we came up with.  From there I will give you an estimated cost for the entire project. 

If you want me to come out for color consultation (to pick out flat paint colors) There is a $85 per hour fee. 

Interior Design fees please call.

At the first consultation, we will discuss your ideas and thoughts (mine too!) From there I go back to my studio and either compile a sketch and/or color boards for your project.

What are color boards? I take the colors and finishes we discuss and put them on a board so when I return we can see how it will look on your walls in your lighting.

Upon my second visit I will bring back the sketches and or boards and we can then see how the proposed colors and idea look in your environment. At that time we can make any alterations and changes and with that I will have an estimate.

I do not give estimates on the first visit. It is very difficult to know what the finish will be on the walls. I will measure the wall space and when I return with your color board(s) I will bring an estimate for your project.

We work closely with budgets!

A suggestion for anyone who is not sure of what they want. Look around your home for something that inspires you.Or go look through design magazines; even get ideas from wall paper books. It could come from the color in your favorite flower or fruit! Open your eyes and look around for anything that might inspire you! If that does not work not to worry, I am full of ideas.

Also, if you are in the Newtown, CT area make an appointment to come into the Painted Bungalow where you can see my work.! There are 10 volumes of portfolios of mine you can browse through for ideas.

I look forward to turning your thoughts (and mine) into a reality!

Remember, have fun with this!
