"I can't thank Mary enough for her work with us in decorating our home.  She offered suggestions in room arrangement as well as wall displays/decorations that have helped transform our bare house into a more comfortable and complete home.  She was professional, efficient, kind, insightful, and made us feel very at ease.  She worked with what we had and also made suggestions for additions as we move forward with our decorating.  Additionally, she never forced an idea upon us.  I never thought that we would hire a designer, but this was such a different experience.  It was like having a friend over to give advice and ideas.  We are so pleased with the results and could never have made these improvements with out Mary's expertise."

"It was a pleasure to have Mary in my home to assist me in  decorating.  She was kind, patient and had terrific ideas.  She went through step by step on how a room should be developed.  She suggested great websites and stores as well.  I think the best thing was that there wasn't any pressure to make quick decisions about the design.  I am slowly designing my living room and office using the "tools"  and ideas that Mary shared with me.  Thanks again Mary!"

"Mary is a true professional. Her attention to detail and design is un-paralleled.  As a general contractor, it is a pleasure to work with someone who understands budgets, schedules, and the complexity of construction projects.  Her willingness to get the information you need in a timely manner, whether on site, by phone or email, makes my job much easier. She is a genuine delight to work with."

"Decorating is such a personal thing, and can get to be expensive depending on what you choose. That's why it's important to make sure you are making the right decisions from the start. We used Mary's services as we were re-doing our family room and kitchen area - putting in hardwoods, replacing furniture, etc. She stepped in right into our situation, had great input, and helped us to completely transform the space.

Beyond that, she was very candid but respectful of our own decisions about taste, and assisted on a daily basis by email to give me input and help "along the way". She had great perspective on everything from choosing artwork to deciding on wall colors and upholstery to compliment the space.

I would highly advocate Mary's services -- she takes the guess work out of decorating and when it comes to your home, it's so important that you choose that right colors, patterns and balance to make it truly 'homey'. Thanks Mary!"

"Our family has been in the process of building a new home, and money was very tight.  I knew that I couldn't afford to utilize a full service interior designer, but I wanted my new home to have a cohesion and unified vision that I felt my current home lacked.   I was anxious about the numerous major decisions that needed to be made, such as choosing  flooring, cabinets, counter tops, etc.  Decisions that were expensive, and permanent!  I also knew that buying new furniture was not an option, that we'd have to work with what we currently owned.  It was overwhelming.

That's were Mary Bellero and Design Friendzy came in.  Mary came to my house and looked at what we had to work with.  She went through the options that I was considering, patiently explaining - and showing me -  why this floor would work with my furniture, but that  floor wouldn't.  Why this molding suited my furniture, but that one didn't.  Why these colors belonged together, but these others don't.  She advised me about what to look for in granite and tile, and when I came back to her with samples based on her suggestions she helped me make my final selections.  It all made a lot of sense when she explained it, but wasn't anything I could come to on my own.  I saved money by doing the legwork, but she provided the vision.

I am now confident that our new home will be beautiful, and will reflect who we are and how we live."
