" Artistic Visionary. "

Kelly has the amazing ability to walk into a room and effortlessly see its potential. When she designed my wedding, she transformed a simple church into an elegant winter wonderland, all the way from the lobby entrance to the details of the stage. She always ensures the final product is imaginative, tasteful, and yet unique to the client, and I recommend her as essential to anyone looking for an artistic visionary for their home, business, or event.

“Always Considerate”

"Kelly has great ideas as soon as she looks at a space but she is always considerate of what you may want in the space. She has the awesome ability to turn your thoughts and ideas into a classy yet trendy space. She is always very responsive when you contact her which is really appreciated. She also works well with people, whether it’s just one project manager or a committee of people. She handles many ideas and suggestions very well even if she doesn’t agree with it. She is very professional."

“Ideas were Phenomenal!”

“We purchased a new home, after 30 years in our starter home. I was overwhelmed with the amount of updating and decorating that was necessary. We were fortunate to work with Kelly Pelley. She asked a few questions about our preferences and lifestyle, and then we met to look at pictures. Her ideas were phenomenal, and we were astonished that she ‘knew us’ so well!
Kelly's expertise and confidence helped us make decisions regarding paint color, furniture selection, window treatments, hardwood floor, light fixtures, tile, and more. She helped us blend our existing furniture with new purchases. She kept us within our budget and left us with more ideas to plan for and dream about.
We are so very grateful that Kelly was willing and available to help us make our new house a home. She patiently assured us that the final product would be beautiful, just what we were hoping for...and she was absolutely right! I hope that when we have the resources to start our next project that Kelly will be available. We are confident that Kelly and her creative abilities and intuition will be an asset with whomever she works.”

" 5 Stars! "

Kelly Pelley is my "go to" for design advice. I first met her shortly after we purchased a home in Rockford that was built in the early 60's. It had lots of original details and she helped us sort through what to keep and what to update. I especially liked that she was all for keeping the original character of the house. I needed lots of help in visualizing the potential and pulling it all together. She is really good at that, and it still amazes me at how good our house turned out. The first thing that people comment about when they step into our home is the flooring in the family room  and kitchen, which she shopped and picked out for us. We did have that professionally installed, and it was money well spent. I am a DIYer to a certain extent, and she worked with me, even encouraged me to try things I didn't think I should attempt! Always positive, and patient with me, you won't be disappointed when you hire her for your design challenges!  She gets 5 stars from me.

“Functional and Looks Great!”

"I have known Kelly for several years. We have worked together on many projects. I love working with her because she is amazing at what she does. I can have thoughts or ideas for a space, then she comes in and just blows my mind with her gifted way of design and seeing things come together that I never would have imagined. She is very patient especially when I’m making suggestions that absolutely would not workJ And even then, she will still come up with a compromise that’s functional and looks great! The spaces that she has done for us over the years still bring so many compliments on a daily basis. It’s so exciting when we come up with another project that needs imagination and talent because I get to enlist Kelly to blow my mind yet again!!"
