After living in our home a bit over a year, we decided we wanted to get help decorating. We hired Erinn, a local decorator at Home Adorn, to help us (homeadorn425@gmail.com). We are really happy with her work and what she was able to do for our home! (For before photos, feel free to check out this post from last year.)
Back before we moved into our home, when we were selling our condo, we had a stager come over and help us know a few changes to make to help our home look better. Our stager staged our condo so beautifully and part of me felt sad that we hadn't hired help when we moved in, since maybe we could have lived in and enjoyed a more beautiful space while we lived there instead of just waiting until we were ready to sell. I'm so glad we learned from this experience and decided to hire help this time around.
So, what is the process working with a decorator like? We contacted Erinn and showed her the space we wanted help with. She shared with us a little more about her and her process, and then we agreed on her design fee for the project. She worked on and sent us design boards for each space. She liked to give us a few options and give us the opportunity to make a few choices. I also got to ask her questions and get her thoughts on what the best option for us was. Something Erinn prides herself in is her ability to find reasonably priced items-- we showed her a very expensive bookshelf we loved and she found a better one at a much lower price point! (Making me wish I had called her sooner for prior purchases, haha!) We had many of the items she helped pick shipped to our home, and then there was a big day where she came over with all the extra finishing touches she was able to find. We are so grateful for Erinn and her expertise.
Have you ever hired help in designing or decorating a space?
