Cozy deep wall color for small rooms | colormoxie
I was so very fortunate to be given Vanessa’s name when I was in a panic at the last minute about choosing paint colors for a large master bedroom, adjoining bath and hallway.  She came to the house with an amazing kit of lovely, large sample boards of color which helped so much in being able to actually visualize how a color would appear in a space with the given light and existing features of the room. She was so much fun to work with and has a amazing eye for color and a gift in terms of understanding what you want to accomplish and helping you to achieve your goals.  She was able to give my space an updated, calm, peaceful look that I wouldn’t have been able to achieve on my own.  Her fee was very reasonable and we accomplished much more than I hoped for in the 2 hours that she was in my home.  I count Vanessa as a friend and will not embark on a future project without her guidance, lovely spirit and unique expertise.

After two years of staring at our dated cabinets in the kitchen and great room, we finally decided to call in a highly recommended professional, Vanessa. As my friend said who referred her, without question money well spent. We found her to be very engaging and easy to communicate with. In our case, we both have different styles, so finding a commonality that doesn’t feel like compromise, is no easy task. After lots of brainstorming and “what if’s” we had a project plan that we are BOTH truly excited about.
Vanessa is professional and great at what she does. As my friend said, and we now agree, money well spent toward a successful project.

After moving here from the Midwest picking the interior paints for my home was even more of a daunting task since I had zero friends and my husband said all the colors were identical. For me hiring Vanessa was more like paying a friend with an impeccable eye for color!!!

We just love our house now that it is painted with the colors that Vanessa helped us find! We had been to a Benjamin Moore paint store many times, looking for an exterior color combination that would enhance our brick and new roof.  We painted a number of samples on various parts of our house, but weren’t quite satisfied with any of them. Vanessa spent several hours with us one summer afternoon and  introduced us to colors that we would never have considered.  Her goal and ours were the same — to find colors that we would love and that would make us happy to come home to. We are so pleased with our house. We’ve lived here 26 years and our house has never looked so good!

Vanessa was FANTASTIC to work with. She took something that seemed overwhelming (picking colors for all interior spaces) into a fun experience. By the end of our session, I felt really great about the colors we had chosen and she went out of her way to answer questions and even come back to the house and look at samples in one room to fine tune the color choice. She turned my house into a place that felt like me; she helped transform it into a place that finally felt like home. Thank you, Vanessa!

What can I say about Vanessa... She is amazing! I pride myself on having an artistic, eclectic design style but picking paint colors is another matter. Considering an interior paint job can easily cost upwards of $5000, investing in Vanessa’s keen eye and ability to see the nuances of different colors is worth every penny. Vanessa helped take a dated, somewhat dingy interior in my recently purchased home and make it clean, contemporary and bright. It has been transformed from a house “I kind of liked” to a house I love!! I recommend her without hesitation. She listens to the client and truly possesses a talent with regard to color.

Thank you so much for all of your help in choosing our house colors. We greatly appreciated working with you. Your knowledge, expertise and careful listening to what we wanted were very helpful. We also appreciate the amount of time you spent with us, making sure we were truly satisfied with the color choices. You made the process enjoyable instead of stressful, and we love the colors on our home! You were right about a yellow door bringing a bit of sunshine and joy. Every time I see the door it brings a smile to my face.
