We have made a huge investment into our renovation project including our kitchen, family room, dining room, master bedroom suite, and guest room. Sharon’s personable approach, coupled with her artistic expertise, has made such an overwhelming task enjoyable.

Sharon helped me re-do my entire living area – sunporch, living room, and study. Throughout the process she was full of great ideas and – most importantly – kept me on track when I started heading away from my “vision”. She kept reminding me “that’s not what you said you wanted.” And I’m so glad, because I ended up with just the look I envisioned – great comfortable durable pieces, awesome colors, and a fresh funky vibe. Also, she helped me tie it all together by color and theme, something I really couldn’t have done on my own. She is enthusiastic and fun to work with – once she even pulled her car over on the road to look through her color wheel while we spoke on the phone. I recommend her to everyone.

Sharon Bottner is intensely gifted and we were lucky to find her. We have a modest (1800 Sq ft) part-contemporary/part traditional home; in essence, a nightmare to choose wall colors, furniture layout and accessories for. We tried for decades; wasting time and money. Sharon saved us.

With Sharon’s help over the last 6 years, we have redone many rooms in our home (exterior, too)… slowly, steadily. We learned to not make one single decision – even minor ones – without Sharon’s advice and approval. (And I have heard that is the general consensus when I’ve spoken with other clients of hers.) She knows exactly what colors, furniture and accessories can do for the functionality and ambiance of a room – no matter what its limitations. In addition to her extraordinary talent and experience, Sharon brings honesty and integrity while informing us on what “works” vs. not in each space. She managed small jobs for us (wall colors, window treatments, furniture purchases) and large jobs (living room, bedrooms, master baths, kitchen) with professionalism, and perfectionism. We love that her work is always a reflection of both her passion and her high standards. So the job gets done right and on time. Sharon has professional connections (contractors, seamstress, electricians, etc.) with similar outstanding abilities, professionalism, expectations; so she brings that advantage as well.

Because of Sharon, we call our home “The Little Engine That Could” because we started with less than ideal, odd-shaped rooms + limited budgets…. thus, seemingly doomed to fail. But Sharon turned our “nothing special” house into a warm – highly functional – and inviting home that we absolutely adore. Every person who walks through our front door is stunned; and when we are away for work or vacations, it rents effortlessly. Though not the initial intent, we have also increased the equity in our home immensely. We highly recommend Sharon, without hesitation.

Sharon helped me redecorate both my (formerly shabby) office AND my (now awesome) living room at home. She was a lot of fun to work with; her enthusiasm was contagious and inspiring. She has a great eye for color, and the experience to know which shades and how much to use. My living room now has an accent wall painted in the most inspiring shade of orange that makes me feel warm even on the most wintry day. Also, she thought about details I would never have considered – eg choosing a beautiful yet durable sofa fabric , and having a custom sized rug – and that ultimately made a big difference in both projects. I couldn’t be happier with the outcomes both at work and at home – and (surprisingly) I really enjoyed the process too.

I always loved my home, but with Sharon’s eye for color and innovative design techniques, I’ve now become ‘house proud.’ She’s enthusiastic, supportive and I always look forward to seeing her. She understands what I want, even when I don’t, and pulls everything together with the big picture in mind.
