TESTIMONIALS

Thank you!!!


“Hardly a day goes by that we’re not thankful for one of the countless ways you and your team set us up to function smoothly in our new home.”

As a busy single mom, Margaret and her team have been irreplaceable to me over several years and several projects.

 

They have helped with everything from bedroom re-designs, to re-thinking workspaces, to going through closets and organizing kitchen pantries. My most recent “aha!” moment was when MRDS took my teen-aged daughter’s TINY bedroom, and, with a few design suggestions, created space we didn’t even realize could be there! I love that she keeps things simple, systems manageable, and design touches approachable and affordable. I go back to her year after year to keep my house “flow” under control— tasks that seem challenging to take on in my busy parent life.

She keeps me on track with my living space—not as a “repository for ‘stuff’," but a home.

Sometimes I sit in my house and think...

​

“The best money I spent on this whole damn house was on having Margaret set me up in it. I’d be living in filth if it wasn’t for her.”

 

Just thought you should know.

Busy professional with a toddler - Enough said!


I may not have sold my home recently without this marvelous human. As a busy professional with a toddler I had zero time to get my home ready and these fantastic women got it done so I could breathe. Can't recommend them enough.

​

P.S. I also just had them unpack. Sent from the gods I tell you!!!"

Clearing out a lifetime of things.


Hire these people! Margaret and her whole team were great...and kind.

My mom and step-father had both died and a lifetime of material goods needed carried away. All the folks at MRDS were very respectful and sensitive to the circumstances...and fun to work with. Margaret helped me determine what went to donations, auctions, or to trash.

Aside from being good people, Margaret's estimate was right on target and there were no surprises in the bill.


I strongly recommend this team. They made a hard task easy for me.

Home office makeover.


Margaret is incredible! She works hard and provides amazing support and guidance to her clients. We really enjoyed working with her and two years later my office is still organized and meeting my needs.

Downsizing after 30 years.

​

Margaret helped me enormously in my downsizing from a house to a condo, and then again in helping me organizing and decorating the new place. I couldn't have done it without her.

Within less than a week the place was transformed into a ready-to-sell condition, and a huge weight was lifted from my shoulders.
Margaret and her team helped me divide the materials into toss/keep/donate/auction, and arranged for all the donation and auction pickups.

 

In the new place, I was substantially unpacked (including thousands of books!) within a week of her arriving, and she and her team organized the place and decorated the place beautifully using the things I already had, including hanging art, moving furniture, etc.

Above all, Margaret listens carefully with the result that the organizing is something that I (not an organized person) can live with. Her fee is very reasonable for all of this.

 

I would recommend her highly and without qualification to anyone facing a major downsizing and transition.

Top to bottom home organization.


We have had so much fun and success working with Margaret over the years. She has helped us design and organize our mudroom, laundry room, towel closet, and master closet.

We are so happy with all her work and our new spaces.

 

We look forward to working with her again in the future.
