Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
I'm an interior designer by trade and crafty mom at heart! I have 2 young boys (5 & 8)I started designing in 2000 and owned a furniture which I closed in 2008. I am excited to have landed at Chameleon Home part time and enjoy doing what I love!
What is your primary product or service?
Ok so just to tell you a little about the budget room re-do process….
The budget starts at $1800 per room. I do all of the sewing, painting of items, upholstering, and everything else that is required to bring the room together, including the installation process. I also get paid within this budget so it is a flat fee. I always explain that this particular service is not for everyone, budget room re-do’s are for the clients who are excited to “just get the room done.” I do however, provide all types of services for other clients who love the creative process and like to go through it with me step by step.
How budget room redo’s work: First of all we have an initial design consult, where we discuss the style the client is going for, the colors they would like to have, and if there is a theme or not. I show them drawings/pictures of what I have in mind and run it by the client to make sure they are on board. Once we have agreed, I start the shopping process which usually takes 2-5 days, I order/ purchase everything I need to get started, the clients are also aware that I am shopping at garage sales and second hand stores to find things I can repurpose! After about 1 month –once everything is complete I go and install the room within 1-2 days at the client’s home. Yes, just like on the show “design on a dime” so when the clients come home from work the room is complete! It’s just so fun to see my client’s reactions!!
