We know many urbanMamas out there with great style that can help Kimberly who is in need of advice on getting help for her interior design needs. She emails:
We have horrible style, but a cute house. I can't take it anymore. Actually I have good style in my head, but don't know how to translate it in my home. Major living and dining room help needed. Can you all recommend someone? Maybe some one who know a bit about feng shui too.

I have a lot of experience re-decorating on a budget. I have studied interior design, but am not currently doing it full time professionally, more on the side. I have done several projects for friends, and have some experience with feng shui also. My email is nwmanicmama@gmail.com. Let me know what you are looking for, and what kind of a budget you have, maybe I can help.

I would love to help you out! My partner and I (both NE pdx moms) are interior designers. We specialize in all kids of interior design, but our first goal is to try to utilize existing furniture that you have, helping to work within any budget. We charge an affordable hourly rate and can help with everything from new paint, to window treatments, furniture, cabinetry etc. You can check out our website at www.johnsonshore.com and email me at jen@johnsonshore.com. I would love to talk to you more about your project and vision!

Hey Kimberly,
My very good friend (and fellow mama) Debbie Onnen is a gifted and creative interior designer. She's always amazing me by turning flea market finds into coveted items just with a fresh coat of paint (for example), so I'm sure she'd be able to help you out without breaking the bank. Her aesthetic really enlivens these older Pac NW homes, fitting in with the period but bringing in some modern flair.
Debbie handles anything from color consultations, to redecorating with existing furnishings, to wholesale redesign. We spoke this morning, and she would love to get in touch: deborahonnen@yahoo.com.
Good luck!
