"Toot your own horn." That's what my college professor urged me to do. Sitting in his office during a pre-acceptance interview, Dr. Demidowicz was trying to ascertain my level of proficiency in the Spanish language. He asked me whether I was any good, and I suppose my rather namby-pamby answer did not convince him. "Come on," he said. "Toot your own horn!" Still not very good at that, I suppose a testimonial page is a perfect place for others to toot it for me. Herewith are their comments. I am grateful for each one.​

Home Staging

“Thanks so much for doing a staging consult for us back in September.  You’ll be happy to hear that our house went under agreement within 30 days of listing for full asking price.  I implemented many of your recommendations, some you’ll remember with your hands-on help; and other more involved changes after-the-fact. I very much appreciated your gentle style in going through our house. We haven’t found our next house just yet, so have moved to a temporary apartment, but kept the simple staging look and put many things in storage.  Would love to stay connected for when we land our next house.  I will definitely be in the market for some decorating tips and ideas!”
Kimberly Maggio, Haverhill MA
“Staging a model home to us means not just a beautiful interior space. It means making every visitor feel welcome to our community and to their potential new home. Our model homes need to express a message of warmth and safety, a “Come on in, look around, sit right down and stay a while” kind of feeling. I find our customers do just that as they linger and imagine their own belongings in that space. Pam has taken our intentions and made them her intentions by re-imagining our staging furniture into a variety of beautiful and interesting layouts, and by using different styling props and art in order to keep each model home unique and fresh. We thank Pam for her originality and thoughtfulness.”

“Working with Pam is a true pleasure. I have worked with her on many of my listings and I can honestly say that when she has “transformed” the properties they have gotten more showings and sold faster than any of my other listings. What Pam does absolutely brings value to sellers and brokers alike. I have even used her in several rooms in my own home and they look spectacular! Her creativity, integrity and general likeability make Pam a great fit for anyone who is listing a home or simply wants to transform the look of their home. I hope to continue to work with Pam for many years to come.”
Joe Leddy, Realtor, Bean Group, Portsmouth, NH
"Working with Pam is a wonderful experience. She has staged several homes for me and I am always impressed with her designs. She is very organized and works great with the clients. Her ability to work well with the team creates a plan that is very effective, both with timelines and staying on budget. She is a true professional who takes the time to listen to her clients so that she can create an interior staging design that really highlights the great features of the home. She has a very positive approach and attitude along with the knowledge to create a designed space that you've always dreamed of."

Design

“We love our newly redesigned living room. It was so much fun and exciting, to go out for the morning and come home to such great changes. We were pleasantly surprised at how subtle changes have such a positive impact on the look and feel of the room!  Our favorite change was the placement of our couch. We have oddly placed windows and not much wall space, but Pam’s decorative eye made the couch look much better in the room’s setting. We would certainly recommend Pam’s service to others. Not only does she know her stuff, but she is a very warm, personable and professional person to do business with!”
 Terri Venator, Newburyport, MA
Working with Pam since the purchase of our new home has been thoroughly enjoyable! She is a talented professional and makes every minute of consulting time count. Her guidance on paint color selection (interior and exterior) and new furnishings to intermingle with existing furnishings has been invaluable. She displays an amazing ability to understand our style and personality and has made design recommendations accordingly. As a result we have a fresh new look that feels uniquely our own.
Susan Bunker, Dover NH
“I like to be a part of the design decisions made in my renovation.  Pam not only has the knowledge and talent to make a stunning difference in the end result, she has the ability to discover how to work effectively with her clients.  She’ll do it all, or just a little, depending on how she has assessed the client’s true desire.  For me, being able to draw on her opinions has provided a needed reality check.  Her guidance on colors, lighting and making it all come together into a functional area with great ambiance has been truly invaluable.”
 Lucy Champion, Hampton, NH
"Pam has saved me countless hours and dollars by providing her expertise in a concise and practical approach with results that fit our taste and lifestyle. We have completed 3 projects with Pam already (a bedroom, a library and a family room) and look forward to another 3-4 to come!"
Monique Shevlin, Greenland, NH

Color

“Overwhelmed, stressed and facing a tight contractor deadline, we reached out to Pam for some help in paint color selection. She walks in, the picture of serenity, and announces “don’t worry, this is what I do”. And does she ever.  Inside of an hour and a half, we had selected several paint colors, talked through a different ceiling paint treatment for one room, and identified by name the existing paint color in another. Anxiety vanishes, stress subsides, and life is good again. We’ve experienced the “I know what’s best for you” type of design professional before. That is not Pam’s style. Her process is collaborative, respectful of client wishes and intuitive. She knows how to take her expertise and experience and synthesize it with client preferences.We’ll be knocking at her door again as our project progresses.”
Ann Hartman, Portsmouth, NH
​"In January we purchased a beautiful home in Greenland however wanted to immediately paint the house before we moved in. Pam met us at the house the same day we closed on the property and guided us to pick out colors for 7 rooms which included dining room, bath rooms, children bedrooms and more! She had an extensive reference selection of large paint swatches for the walls yet quickly narrowed in on recommendations for paint selections. All 7 rooms came out amazing and better than we ever anticipated and this is all due to Pam's guidance as we would have never picked out the perfect colors on our own. Our house reflects that professional designer touch and we have further expanded our scope with Pam to include furniture selection and accessorizing the house. We couldn't have been happier with Pam's guidance."
