"Amy came to our home to help guide us on a decorating plan for our living room. She took the time to get to know us and our decorating styles. She came up with a plan on furniture arrangement and gave us ideas on color and decor. She went above and beyond to help us, even after our appointment. We look forward to consulting with her in the near future for other decorating projects."

"Bruce is an excellent building designer. He has many years of experience as builder and now uses that expertise to focus on building design. He listened to our needs, wants and constraints and then was very capable at translating all of that into a building design. He is very proficient at Chief Architect design software and his 3D renderings and ability to show us in real time what things would look like were a great help in deciding what we wanted. We then took our final design out to several different builders. This process allowed to compare builders on cost, quality and fit and identify the one we wanted to work with. Bruce then supplied the final plans for the project for permitting and for the builder and subcontractors."

"

My overall experience with Chris at Artistic Landscapes was positive.  Chris was very responsive and was very active in the day to day work on my project.  Chris is very knowledgeable and we asked a lot of questions throughout the process.  The project took longer than expected but there were some unfortunate weather delays and change orders to the project scope.  Overall, we are pleased with the final outcome and would recommend Chris.

"Jessica and team did a great job on designing and installing landscaping for our entire yard in August 2020. The team was very professional: they were timely, listened to our input and completed the entire project on time and on budget. Would highly recommend this company and wouldn't hesitate to refer them to family, neighbors and friends. Kyle and Pam Rulau"

"Cory was top-notch. He has an excellent design sense and built absolutely beautiful cabinets. When small issues were found (as they always are on such large projects), they were promptly corrected and to our satisfaction. I think our kitchen, in part thanks to Cory and his team, and in part thanks to our designer, looks like it came out of a showroom. We're are extremely pleased."

"I am a general contractor who has worked with Michael Kloti Inc. on several projects since 2008. My clients and myself always enjoy Mikes knowledge and creativity. His designs can be small, simple and functional to grand, elaborate and visually stunning. I look no further when in need of design help. I strongly recommend Michael Kloti Inc."

"I had an amazing experience from start to finish with Star Bath Systems! From the beginning, the customer service was excellent. Once I started with the project designer to come up with a plan for my master bath remodel - she was so knowledgeable & helpful that it made the design process a breeze. When it came to remodel week, they were not only extremely timely, but also very clean… what a relief! The grout and tiles came out so pretty and I was so incredibly happy I went with them! Thanks again, Star Bath! Highly recommend!"

FAQs for design and decorating projects in Excelsior, MN

Start by defining your goals and budget. Collect photos of rooms you love, jot down must-have features, and list what isn’t working in your current space. Share these details—and your target budget—during the first meeting. The clearer you are, the quicker a designer can translate your vision into a workable plan and keep costs in check.

Yes, working with an interior designer can help you save money. Designers prevent costly missteps, secure trade discounts on furniture and finishes, and coordinate the project so you don’t pay twice for the same work. Their upfront fee often pays for itself in avoided change orders, tighter timelines, and materials purchased at below-retail pricing.

A full interior design project wraps up in two to three months, on average, while a decorating job takes four to eight weeks. Timelines stretch if you add structural changes, custom millwork, or specialty materials, and unexpected shipping or permit delays can tack on extra days. Talk with your designer about project milestones and build in a little wiggle room.

Interview at least three pros whose portfolios match your style. Review their credentials and ask for references. During a face-to-face or virtual meeting, discuss your goals, budget, and timeline, and make sure their communication style and fee structure feel comfortable. The right designer combines technical know-how with a creative approach that clicks with you.
