Slick Designs
Interior Designers & Decorators in Ames, IA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 February 2015
“Dessie from Slick Designs provided the design and assisted in picking out the floor and wall tile for my 2nd bathroom. We replaced a shower stall, toilet and sink with a jetted tub, separate shower, toilet and sink. The room was enlarged by knocking out a wall and utilizing a closet on the other side. The total cost of the remodel was aprx $15,000.00. Dessie provided excellent design knowledge and gave me confidence to believe in my own choices as well. Even though we were in separate towns, she was able to come to my home and grasp my "style" She created the most beautiful room in my house. She was on schedule, on budget and a joy to work with. I do not hesitate to recommend Slick Designs for any project and hope I can work with her again.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 April 2017
“It is with great pleasure that I write this recommendation for Emily Lee Interior Design. I have known and have worked with Emily on projects since 2013. Emily is an exceptional interior designer who is passionate and extremely knowledgeable about her work. Her project management skills coupled with her ability to draw precise plans through CAD make her incredibly desirable in her field. I believe Emily is the epitome of excellence in the design world. She is a joy to work with and I fully put my faith and trust in her capable hands. I highly recommend her and look forward projects together in the future.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 September 2023
“Emily is incredible! Professional, imaginative, and with beautiful taste - she understands all of the dimensions to making a space feel special. Her nickname became the "treasure hunter" because she always found the most gorgeous and surprising pieces to complete a room. She's also extremely organized, communicative, and easy to work with, even on huge renovation projects with numerous details and moving parts. Would absolutely recommend her (and have to friends!) and would work with her again.”
Wild Rose Interiors
Interior Designers & Decorators in Ames, IA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 July 2017
“My entire experience with Wild Rose was fantastic. Deb is professional, responsive, and creative. She will shop around to find the best deals and is great about sticking to your budget. The space looks completely different with some fresh paint, new backsplash, powder bath wallpaper, hardware, and fixtures. I have received several compliments on the transformation and I would highly recommend Wild Rose for any interior design work.”
Meghan Blum Interiors
Interior Designers & Decorators in Ames, IA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 November 2013
“Meghan Blum basically acted as my surrogate during the construction of our 8,800 square foot home inasmuch as I was in another location and unable to attend to the details of building or design. With input from me consisting primarily of magazine pictures and internet ideas, she chose everything from paint colors to window coverings, all accessories, furniture and art work. Her exquisite taste and attention to detail resulted in a home that is beyond my imagination, filled with beauty and comfort. Meghan went above and beyond the scope of my dreams by traveling to our farm and creating a coffee table book of farm pictures which captured such fond memories for my husband and I, and included beautifully framed farm pictures elsewhere in the home. Throughout this 1 1/2 year project, Meghan worked closely with the builder and contractors and was professional, prompt and extremely pleasant in every encounter. I feel extremely fortunate and blessed to have worked with her and recommend her at the highest level for your project. Throughout”

Right Touch Interiors
Interior Designers & Decorators in Ames, IA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 August 2016
“I worked with Janet Stewart of Right Touch Interiors, and found her to be professional, helpful with developing a new design idea for my living room remodeling project, and positive in her interactions with me. When the new area rug came in with a color error, she was my advocate with the company, and a new area rug is on its way! I would freely recommend her services to anyone, and I LOVE my new living room! Project came in ON TIME and within my budget!”
