Testimonials for Colleen Lynch of Dovetail
Decor
I
recently engaged Dovetail Decor to provide interior
decorating services for the main floor of my home. The
final result and the entire decorating process was very
satisfying. Colleen Lynch of Dovetail Decor did an
initial consultation to see my space and the current
layout. Her quote, which gave me options for bundled
services or the full job, was very reasonably priced.
Throughout the decorating process I never felt that
Colleen was pushing her own design style. Instead she
helped me find a style that fit just right, while guiding
me with her experienced eye for colour and design. If you
don’t have the time to research or shop or need the
expert eye of a decorator, I highly recommend the
services of Dovetail Decor.
Sincerely,

We are delighted with
the quality of service provided by Colleen Lynch of
Dovetail Décor.
For some time, we had been
looking for a carpet to buy for the living room that we
had recently added to the back of our small bungalow in
Long Branch during a major renovation. We arranged for
Colleen to accompany us on a visit to a warehouse sale.
With Colleen's help, we quickly located a carpet .
Hand-knotted, from untreated wool, it was just the right
size for us and matched our colour samples perfectly. The
carpet was on sale at a 60-percent reduction from the
standard price. Once in place in our living room, the
carpet, with its lovely muted greens, looked like it
truly belonged in that space, and had been there for a
while. While at the warehouse, we were impressed with the
fact the sales staff picked up at once that Colleen was
an experienced consultant, and spoke differently with her
than they did with us.
Colleen has also helped us to purchase a custom-made
table, made of reclaimed lumber from a historic Ontario
barn, for a small den at the front of our house, part of
a larger office-design project that she is helping us
with. We love looking at the nail holes in the lumber,
and I like to think of the day many decades past when a
person unknown to us, and from another period in
Ontario’s history, grasped a hammer and drove the nails
into the boards.
We would never have been able
to find these pieces without Colleen’s expert and
friendly assistance. We are very, very pleased to have
her working with us. Colleen has an eye for detail, a
willingness to listen, and a remarkably broad range of
experience in the design industry. We recommend her very
highly for any person or family seeking top-quality,
professional interior design services.

Working with
Dovetail it took much less time to plan the rooms and
choose colours, patterns etc. It all went together well
and followed the theme.

"
I worked with Colleen extensively this year (2009)
to redecorate the major principal rooms in my
residence. She planned and managed the
redesign of my living room and master bedroom, and
made significant design changes to my dining room
and son's bedroom. She is very talented,
with a great eye for design, color and texture.
Colleen is very price and cost conscious
and fair to her clients. She is very
pleasant to work with, and engages with her clients
on all aspects of the project, and communicates
well. I would highly recommend her for any
design projects."
