Outside/In Living

Entire process took much longer than expected, over a year and was never able to get all the furniture to complete the power point rooms designs. (2 living rooms, dining room, 1 bedroom, kitchen island (light and stools), 2 additional bedroom's (desk and duvet). We paid her directly so she could purchase the items at "trade discount", $5000 was added to the furniture invoice for shipping. Some items were discontinued, some things just never arrived, some arrived damaged. She said the furniture would be higher quality and less expensive than if we purchased it ourselves from an online site but some things already need to be replaced so I dont think there is personal experience with the longevity of some of the brands she works with and recommends. Same with the painters, they were very sloppy. Contract said "white glove delivery" was standard but with the exception of the van trips she did herself, all the boxed up furniture was only delivered to the front door or driveway. More than $10,000 in design services and she was very difficult to get ahold of for months, many different personal reasons like catching covid, her grandmother died, and moving. Many online and brick and mortar retailers provide free design services and free or minimal cost shipping and setup with furniture that is in stock and available.

During our first meeting, Yvette was able to assess the situation (poor lighting in an old house) and provide us with cost effective solutions. It was well worth the time spent with her to articulate our issue and figure out what really mattered. I recommend her services without any reservations. Just what we needed!

We had been looking to brighten our home while bringing warmth and coziness into it. We had no idea that our choices of furniture had been doing for our home exactly what we did not want. Yvette was able to translate our thoughts into choices for paint, furniture, and rugs and helped transform our house into a picture perfect place for us that we love and will cherish for years to come! Yvette was very patient in trying to find middle ground between mine and my husband’s wants that sometimes were not the same. We have an end result that both of us love and appreciate. The finishing touches that Yvette brought to the house were simply exquisite bringing to the house a feeling of zen. I cannot recommend Yvette enough!

Yvette is thorough, personable, punctual, professional, and a fantastic communicator. She confidently advised me on very complex flip and was knowledgeable about specific materials and design as well as vendors and dealing with contractors. As a real estate investor herself, she is able to give a design perspective beyond that of her competitors. Absolutely recommend!

My heart and mind is at rest . Having Yvette help me see the vision in transforming my bedroom . There was No pressure just kindness . Nothing but joy fullness in my heart every time I go in my my bedroom. We felt so confident that we decided to moved forward with other rooms . We truly in love how everything came out ! Thank you for your vision Outside / In-living

If you’re looking for someone with vision, creativity and the ability to go above and beyond, stop right here. Not only will you get to work with someone who has impeccable taste, but more importantly someone who truly cares about her clients and the spaces they live in.

When we decided to move, we had a lot of work ahead of us. We had collected a lot of items over the years we owned the home and the decor was outdated. Our realtor recommended Yvette. She was a life saver! She helped us pack, declutter, and then brought in an amazing eye for design. She found furniture and decor that matched our house, coordinated a shipping container, painters, and staging for the sale. We would not have been ready for our open house without her help, and our home would not have sold as easily as it did. If you need help with selling. Or for your own personal decorating, do not hesitate to hire Yvette!

I can not say enough good things about all that Outside/In helped with! Not only was Yvette attentive, punctual, and uplifting, but she is amazing at what she does! My wife and I had just purchased a new home, and moved all our belongings to this house. We had so many boxes and didn’t know where to start, we needed help getting our dream home brought to life. This is when Outside/In Living came in!! First, Yvette helped understand what we wanted to feel in our home and we gave her images of spaces we liked. She took that inspiration, and transformed our living and kitchen/dining space to exactly what we wanted! She gathered together furniture, painted, and even threw in personal touches. Would recommend Yvette to anyone needing these type of services. She is amazing!

Yvette with Outside/In Living helped us transform our home to get it staged and ready for showing. She initially toured our home and shared her vision for our space— everything from moving the couch a little to how to dramatically refresh the kitchen. Yvette was a joy to work with and her expertise made all the difference for us as we prepped our home. She was thoughtful, detail oriented and always organized. I can’t say enough positive things about this company.

I’ve worked with a lot of organizers and stagers in my capacity as a real estate agent. She has the unique ability to not only transform a client’s home...but she will also CHANGE THEIR LIVES. Unlike most folks in her field, Yvette is truly a genius designer and organizational therapist, paired with inspiring levels of patience and professionalism. Her end results are impeccable and unparalled. Difficult clients flourish under her steady and gentle direction, and the truth is—everyone thrives when Yvette is around. I’d hire and recommend her again and again—her unique services are pure gold!
