Reviews

 "Unlike so many designers that make rooms to read like roped off showcases, Julea helps her clients embrace their home. She's in-tuned to their lifestyle.   No overly fussy, do not touch, over fluffed rooms; instead, spaces you can fully enjoy and actually use!"- Margie, Orland Park, Illinois 

Can I just say that I LOVE the rooms .. I have been in there to read when I had a few minutes ... I loved working with you .. you do have a skill like no one I have ever met ... Thank you so much for making my house become a home. - Heather, St. Charles

"I have always struggled to pull my rooms together, accessorizing, shopping and decorating is not my strength. I would go into stores to look for things for my home, only to leave empty handed. You helped me define my style!" -Kara, Palos Heights, Illinois

"When we were ready to remodel our home, Julea helped us make cost effective choices and then helped finish the space with beautiful design." - Anne, Valparasio, Indiana 

"Julea swept in and staged our home with just the right touches in a matter of hours. It was sold within the month she staged it. She is now working with us on our new home." Jenni - Plainfield, Illinois

 "I have enlisted Julea's services on a number of projects, and in addition to her creative talents, she is very professional and dependable. I know I can count on her to get the job done on time, within budget and with amazing results." Linda Fogarty - Coldwell Banker, Naperville

"This was not the usual boring C.E. class.  Julea, not only provided excellent content,but did an excellent job engaging everyone with the great content.  Julea provided some great slides that she offered to send to the participants of the class if they requested them.  That was awesome, because it is great information to include in a listing presentation. I walked out of the class with TONS of information.  More than I have any other class.  Mainstreet is really lucky to have Julea teach these classes." Wendy McSteen -Spring Realty Inc., Shorewood, Ilinois.
