Additional Testimonials by Long Term & Repeating Clients

Interior Design / Exterior Design Client:

" I have worked with Mary for several years.  We have remodeled 2 homes together and she has helped me make countless good decisions.  I am the type of client who wants someone to take my ideas and add their design expertise but let me do most of the work myself.  Whether consulting with me on a large project such as gutting and remodeling my kitchen or simply updating a bathroom on a limited budget she always has the perfect advice.  I have never felt any job was too large or too small for Mary and she always gladly works within my budget.  She has taught me it is OK when I cannot do all that I dream of doing now and to wait until time and budget allows.  Mary's ability to select the right paint color truly does make her an authority on color.  I use to think money spent on design services was expensive but my husband and I agree that Mary have saved us way more by spending wisely.  Thank you, Mary"

Interior Design / Real Estate Staging Clients:
"We have been fortunate to work with Mary Donovan of Donovan Design since 2001 when we were building our current home.  In the last eight years she has assisted us with many decorating needs.  First, when building our house she worked with us and the builder's design center to pick out paint colors, flooring, cabinets, countertops and light fixtures.  Once our house was built, Mary assisted us in the selection of new furniture, rugs, art and accessories.  She even helped us decorate for our first Christmas - it looked wonderful and continues to look great each year!  In recent years Mary has helped us update the look of our home and prepare our house for resale.  When we move into our next home, we will again involove Mary to help us make the most of our new space.  There are many aspects we enjoy about working with Mary.  Most importantly, she remains respectful of our tastes and budgetary requirements.  Both of us have very busy schedules and Mary is great about working within our constraints.  She scouted out appropriate art and accessories then brought them to our home on approval.  She works hard to find things that will work perfectly in our home.  Our home is now seven years old yet visitors still comment that they think it looks new!  We highly recommend Mary Donovan for your design needs."

Landscape Design Client's Testimonial - 5 year old installation

"Mary Donovan did an excellent job both as designer and as manager of my landscape project.  She listened, advised and was incredibly patient with me, even when I changed my mind.  I was a novice so I needed Mary to manage the entire project.  She interviewed contractors and we discussed the quotes.  She dealt with the contractors, made any neccessary revisions and kept the project on track.  Mary was very mindful of my budget and prepared a 3 phase plan.  Fortunately, I was able to complete all three at once.  Because of Mary's creativity, knowledge, communication skills, attention to detail and perseverence I am thrilled with my landsape and I highly recommend Donovan Design."
