It has been a joy working with Deb Garvin! She is so knowledgeable, so efficient, so communicative, and has a great gift in interior design. She never fails to put our minds at ease when things seem overwhelming and is beyond helpful. We couldn't have done this project without her!

We had a wonderful experience working with Deb! Not only is she knowledgable about design, but she is an excellent listener who will educate you on what works and what doesn't. Deb provided us with the tools and resources to make our space work such as color samples, links to products and retailers. She also worked within our budget and even found cost saving items that were comparable to what we liked. We love our selections and are excited to work with her on our next project. And to top it off she was super fun to work with. We would highly recommend Deb to anyone looking for an interior decorator.

Deb has been wonderful to work with as we proceeded through several home remodeling projects. She has helped us with colors, rugs, bedding, and pretty much everything else. Giving us ideas and the color samples to bring to the stores to help with our decision. On our last project, we just had her go to the stores and bring samples back to us that she thought would work. Everything we've done with her has turned out to be just what we had hoped it would be and we are loving the end result. It has been a very easy, economical, straightforward process, and took away all the stress of these decisions knowing we were working with a professional. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for advice on the latest trends, colors or just any updates to your home you might be thinking of making.

“I just love this room!” or “Your home is so welcoming and peaceful!” It could be the entry way, the living room, the dining room, the kitchen, the family rooms or one of three bathrooms. These words are spoken and felt almost every day by one of us, our family and/or our guests. Deb Garvin has worked with us on multiple projects, and we couldn’t be happier with the end results. What began as a paint color consult for our lower level family room evolved into bathroom remodels, and then over the course of a few years, a whole house refresh for our 1965 split entry. Friendly, knowledgeable and easy to work with, Deb Garvin has been our natural choice to guide us for each project! Working with Deb is a collaborative process. As she listened to what we needed and wanted, she was able to help us define our design style, color palette, and use of each space. Her communication has always been prompt, professional and responsive. Deb’s expert design knowledge helped us to create spaces that are functional and unique, yet flow together. No two rooms look alike, but they share common elements. Deb guided us each step of the way—sometimes shopping with us for lighting, flooring or furniture; suggesting recommendations for artwork, accent pieces, and window coverings; giving feedback on our choices that helped us to create a design that reflects our family story. As she guided us, Deb taught us about design and arming us with tools and resources. A color palette portfolio, diagrams of mantle arrangements, and tips for determining sizes and dimensions and room arrangements are just a few examples. She let us use her professional discounts in purchases where applicable, and helped us to combine a few higher end purchases with budget- friendly purchases …. keeping our projects beautiful, yet doable. We have loved every minute working with Deb Garvin. She is not only a gifted interior designer, she is an amazing human being! Larry and Debbie Bell

I always enjoy working with Deb and would recommend her to anyone. She is a professional, very talented and super easy to work with. She has helped on multiple projects in my home, projects for friends and family including our son’s real estate flips. Deb keeps the budget in mind and always provides affordable options. She is very responsive to text messages, emails and always willing to meet and shop for products and home decor. I will continue to use Deb for all remodeling and decorating needs.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of working with Deb and 1st Impressions Design, LLC for the interior design of our home, and I cannot speak highly enough of her expertise and professionalism. From the beginning, Deb showcased her skills as a color specialists. Her recommendations for the color palette brought a sense of harmony and sophistication to every room. The choices she helped us make were timeless, ensuring that our home will remain stylish for years to come. What truly amazed us was Debs ability to provide furniture recommendations that perfectly complemented the overall aesthetics of the home. Her eye for detail and understanding of our personal style resulted in a cohesive and beautiful design throughout the entire house. Deb was so accommodating to come with us on appointments to pick out such items as Granite Kitchen Tops, Wood Floors, and provided a padfolio of color options to bring the entire package together. Overall, we could not be happier with our experience working with Deb.

Stellar! Deb is so knowledgeable, helpful, honest, available, and has great ideas to enhance our home! She totally gets how overwhelming this process can be for clients! I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone!

This was my first total remodel of a bathroom and I was "all over the place" in trying to make decisions. Deb rescued me! She gave me solid advice (even when I didn't want to hear it) and together we nailed down a design, choice of materials, color, flooring and countertop. She made my personal preferences shine through! My husband, who could not have cared less about the project, now stands in the bathroom in satisfied amazement about how well everything turned out. Deb gets 5 stars from us! Judy anf Mac Willemssen

Deb has a calm and experienced approach on the journey of design support. Her communication is timely, kind and respectful, with a great listening ear for what the client's wishes and desires are while simultaneously providing her professional knowledge. She has a clear and stream lined approach for building a color palette and provides great direction and connection for the shopping of the specific details needed for the project. Working with Deb at 1st Impressions Design reduced our stress level with her calm and experience!

I really enjoyed working with Deb. Her knowledge and expertise transformed our house, built in 2000, into the 2020's. She was easy to work with. Her ideas were practical, innovative and fit within our budget. I have and will continue to refer my family and friends to Deb.

Deb is amazing with all of our clients. She takes the time to help the clients understand why staging is so important to selling your their home. She also explains how the potential buyers are going to view and feel when they walk through the home.

It has been a pleasure working with Deb Garvin and I would highly recommend her staging services. I have received many compliments on how well the home shows after Deb is done with her staging and my clients love working with her! She is friendly, knowledgeable and provides great direction to help sell the home fast and for top dollar. Thank you Deb!
