chris helped us choose colors for our entire house. she was great fun to work with and brought enormous color chips (2 ft by 2 ft) from two or three lines of paint including C2 and Devine. we spent just under 2 hours taping chips up on different walls, comparing the colors with the trim, tiles or granite and then comparing the final colors to make sure the whole house had some semblance of flow. chris has so much experience in terms of choosing colors and then seeing the final results that she was able to lend her first hand experience in advising us towards or away from certain colors. for example she said 'this color chip looks like a creamy off white but when its on the wall it tends to look much more yellow and bananay and i don't think it will look good with your carpet color'. she helped expedite decision making and also made great suggestions just in terms of interior decorating. another example, she suggested we continue the very dark chocolate brown color we choose for our bedroom into the adjoining bathroom to give a feeling of "master suite". i was skeptical about painting a bright and sunny bathroom a dark brown color but it actually works really well and was a great suggestion.
chris lives on bainbridge island and unless she already has a trip planned to seattle will charge about $40 for her travel time and ferry expenses. her hourly is $75. two phone numbers: 206-855-9569 and her cell 206-713-8758
she has great energy, is quick and efficient and very knowledgeable and i highly recommend her.
