Hirondelle Rustique

Are you struggling with how to decorate your space? Want to do-it-yourself but need a little help along the way?

I'm excited to offer decorating consultations via email to those who need help with areas in their homes.

I offer three affordable options:

Have a design dilemma and need some advice? Supply me with a few photos of the room in question along with the problem you're having and I'll email you a written solution. I'll send you a list suggesting ideas for furniture placement, finding new furniture and accessories or re-purposing items you already have, color choice ideas, shopping resources, decorating tips and the thought process behind all of my suggestions.

$30 per room

Written Consultations are completed within 1 week of when your email, questionnaire and payment are received. Scroll to the bottom for info on how to receive a consultation.

Need help brainstorming ideas for a particular room? Supply me with a few photos of your room and fill out a questionnaire with details about your likes and dislikes, your decorating tastes and your budget and I'll send you a customized “virtual” mood board to serve as an affordable plan for changing the look of your space. I'll include furniture options, lighting ideas, floor, window and wall treatments, color schemes and accessory suggestions to help transform your space.

Along with the mood board, I'll include a written explanation of the plan as well as prices for the items and where to find them. Whether you're starting fresh or working around items you treasure and love, your custom mood board will be suited to your needs.

$75 per room

Mood Boards are completed within 1 week of when your email, questionnaire and payment are received. Scroll to the bottom for info on how to receive a consultation.

Entryways are the first impression people get when entering your house. Hallways connect spaces and are often indications of what's to come. With a photo consultation you can discover the amount of potential and impact your small space really has.

Along with the consultation, I'll include a resource list, prices for each item, and a written explanation of my plan.

$45 per room

Photo Consultations are completed within 1 week of when your email, questionnaire and payment are received.

When you want to see exactly how furniture and color scheme suggestions will work in your space, a photo consultation is for you. Using one of your photos, your room measurements and a detailed questionnaire, I will create a visual picture packed with ideas, style and functionality. I offer practical advice on choosing the right paint colors, window treatments, wall coverings, fabrics, furniture and accessories for your room.

Your virtual plan will also show you how to visually change the proportions of an awkward space, how to play up the good features in your room while disguising the bad, how to achieve the atmosphere you desire and how to make the most of what you already have, giving you the confidence and path to follow to to give your space your signature style.

$125 per room

Here are some examples of rooms before and after one of my photo consultations: 

 

 

 

TO RECEIVE A CONSULTATION:

Email Monica at hirondellerustique@gmail.com

What to send via email:

• Photos of your room (preferably one of each wall and 2-3 overall room shots)
• Your budget
• Measurements of your room (a quick sketch is helpful). Include length of walls, location and size of windows, doors and built ins, and where power outlets and heating or air vents are located.
• Ceiling height
• Inspiration – Any photos or links you've collected of decorating ideas you like and represent your style. Don't worry if you're not sure what your style is, that's what I'm here for to help you figure out!

Once I receive your email, I'll send you a lifestyle questionnaire to help me learn a little more about you and your decorating tastes, as well as an invoice for the total amount.

My consultation prices are for one room/area only (for open floor plans, please choose one space to receive a advice on, for example the dining room OR the living room), however if you'd like to purchase more than one room I do offer a 15% discount for purchasing more than one consultation.

Payment:

Since these are custom consultations I do require payment upfront. I accept PayPal, Money Orders and Personal Checks. For PayPal and US Postal Money orders I can begin the consultation immediately, checks and regular money orders will require 7 days to clear.

If you have any other questions feel free to email me and I'd be happy to answer them for you.

Thanks!
