Spring Cleaning Made Simple: Get Organized

Spring has finally arrived as you hear more birds chirping, and last year's tulips have popped from the ground. Although we enjoy the warmer weather and the longer hours this time of year brings, we also must rid our homes of the many knick knacks collected during winter. "Spring cleaning" is a phrase many hate to hear, but getting started early rather than late is the key to avoiding a clutter-induced breakdown.

Testimonial:
     "We are very happy with the service we received from Elegant Design Concepts and are thrilled with our new kitchen. My wife and I had different approaches to the project: I enjoyed finding options and obsessing over details each night (i.e., very “hands-on”) while she was more inclined to describe what she wanted to an expert and then choose from a few options provided to her.  Meshelle seemed to quickly recognize and understand the differences between my wife and I and helped navigate us through the process in a way that addressed both of our personalities (being especially patient with me!)  She was professional, efficient, and skillful in the way she helped us maintain momentum.  Meshelle also worked with us to stay within our budget and was equally happy to present us with options or have us provide our own materials when we thought we could find them more inexpensively.  Most impressively, when faced with the inevitable issues that occur as everything comes together, she always stepped up and supported our interests and high expectations.  Meshelle’s sense of style and taste are impeccable and we would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for a designer who puts the clients’ needs first and has an eye for elegance."
