Top Notch Decorators

by jamiek18

Use What You Have has helped me decorate my last three homes. The first two were rentals and now I own my apartment. Since I never used a decorator before the first meeting I was especially impressed with the designer's helpful attitude and innovative suggestions. That was twelve years ago and I can't imagine moving without getting their advice on where to put things and what to buy. This company has been around for many years and is a great value at a fair flat rate fee. Also, I have read and enjoyed all of the books by Lauri Ward, the

president of the firm.

• Pros: reliable, professional, well-priced

Now My Apartment Has Great Style!!!

by sweetnote

This company is great!!! A few years ago I used another designer and they rearranged

pieces and added accessories but it just looked different NOT BETTER!!! That is why

I love Use-What-You-Have. The designer was truly interested in developing a plan

which not only gave a new look to my place but included my favorite pieces which reflected my lifestyle. Leaving me with ideas which I could implement in the future was a great plus. Now I love where I live!

• Pros: Talented!, Reliable, Personable

HAPPY IN MY CONDO,THANKS LAURI

by dooley05

We were very pleased with Use What You Have Design. I question the rude comments

made by others and their motives. I also think it is the competition trying to undermind

a great designer. Our favorite redesign from Lauri is the bedroom, my retreat,my place

to recharge. We truly can have fun in the kitchen where we entertain, her expertise was well worth it.

• Pros: professional, CURRANT STYLES, dedicated
