Testimonials About Barbara

Barbara Kaplan gets to the heart of the matter. In her Bajaro Method certification classes, Barbara shares extensively from her years of experience with vendors, clients, and the design industry. More importantly, she offers a unique opportunity to understand how important the human element is in transforming a room into an inviting living space, a house into a home, a space into a sanctuary. I was reminded to actively listen to my clients and remember that design should always be a collaborative process, after all, it is their home!

Deborah M.K., Prescott, AZ

All is well and our home has become such a welcoming Haven for our family and friends. 

Gayle W., Scottsdale, AZ

Through the years, our relationship had shown me that there is a huge difference between a decorator and a “Design Counselor.” With your expertise, I’ve learned that change is not only healthy but can be very exciting.  Your guidance in re-creating our master bedroom suite was invaluable and the room has become “our dream come true.” The transformation is incredible, exquisite, and extremely functional.  Even more exciting, the entire process was an enjoyable one with you by my side.  Thanks for just being you. You’re amazing!!!

Lynn R.

Barbara Kaplan gave me the confidence I needed when it came to designing my home.  I took the profile, “poof” out came the answers I needed.  Barbara is not like other designers that offer their thoughts of how YOUR home should be.  Instead, she talked to me and asked me what I wanted/needed in the space I was decorating.  Her philosophy and approach are exactly what the doctor ordered.  I absolutely LOVE my home and I know that I decorated it myself with just a little nudging along the way. THANK YOU, Barbara, for making my home express who I am.

Elan W., Petaluma, CA

It means so much to me that you assessed each room with me. Since your visit, the way I view both my home and my life has changed. I’m striving for comfortable function and peace here now, rather than putting things in places because I saw it in a magazine. I’ve changed a number of areas of my home, with your voice in my head. And there are more changes to come! 

Tami B., Fountain Hills, AZ

Such great advice over the last few weeks, Barbara. Thank you so much!! My living space is really now OUR own and is very comfy for us! And I have MY own space too!

Karen B., Scottsdale, AZ

Barbara was the catalyst for our remodel, redesign, and redecorating of our home. She provided the push when we needed shoving. Her Bajaro Method enabled us to find what we really liked in redesigning and redecorating our living space. Her skill provided just the right amount of inspiration for us to find our comfort zone. Three years later and we are still in love with our space.

Michael & Bonnie S., Chandler, AZ

Barbara was a godsend for my family.  She helped me totally remodel my home and it is so much nicer than I could have hoped for. Barbara made it easy to select furniture.  I went to the furniture store four times and found nothing.  Then, I went with Barbara and found all my new furniture at one time, and it’s amazing!  I wanted purple; she found me purple sofas and beautiful area rugs. She also planned out a redesign for my whole house that is open, functional and beautiful.  I love my whole space, from the bathroom through the kitchen. The tile, flooring, color of the walls and kitchen layout; all make me feel comfortable and peaceful, in my home.  It’s upbeat and fits my personality.  It really beats the old stuff that I couldn’t stand to look at, anymore. If you want a fantastic space and a real “at home” feeling, employ Barbara and enjoy the whole process! 

Michell B., Scottsdale, AZ

Barbara helped us create a home environment that is truly a reflection of our lifestyle. She took us through a process in which we were able to refine our ideas and implement them with confidence.

Ricki & Ralph P., Phoenix, AZ

When we decided we wanted to remodel our home, all was well and good.  The problem was I had no idea where to start, what was next, how to do any of it.  Fortunately, my dear friend, Barbara was an expert in virtually everything I needed to know from the smallest detail to the grandest plan.  If I dreamt it, she could manifest it.  Things that might have flitted through my mind on a semi-creative day, which in my life was exceedingly rare, in hers, constant, were taken very seriously.  This odious project which I had feared became a joy when Barbara and I did it together.

Susan Y., Phoenix, AZ
