Testimonials About Barbara

I just want to tell you how impressed I am with your talent, patience, sense of humor, professionalism, and ability to turn out fabulous projects. Your clients are lucky to have you!

Elaine W.

I appreciate so much how you helped us “take the fear out of interior decorating.”  When Jeff and I bought this house we wanted to add some color and thought of painting an accent wall.  As you know, I am not timid about self-expression in areas that I am familiar with, but decorating isn’t my area of expertise, so I didn’t trust my instincts.   You listened, applied your knowledge of us and our lives, and your advisement was right on.  You were able to zero in on what I desired to do, instead of what I voiced. Because of your encouragement, we found our edge and have been so happy with our decorating decisions. Our home makes me smile every time I enter it and isn’t that what it is all about? Later, when it came time to do some updates how fortunate for me that you wrote “The Bajaro Method” for me to turn to. It was just like you being there to listen and encourage. I turn to it every time I need “permission.” Thanks again, and I wish everyone their own healing environment.

Pat L., Phoenix, 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

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

I will ALWAYS need you until the last little accessory finds its place in the house!   Because I don’t know how to place the tiles in the bathroom, or where to put the sofa or which chairs for the dining room! And after that, I’ll need you always as my friend!

Stephanie B.

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

I so LOVE what you did with the house. Three people who have been coming to my house for a while now, this was their first time noticing the small table in the “open pantry” as I call it. We are enjoying more eating at the dining room. Last night we put all the rugs in and you should see the difference that it made. So warm, I wish you could see it. Thank you so much for coming over and making the changes, it really opened up our house as well as inviting us back in to love our house. Again, thank you for your time and your advice.

Giangi T.

As I read “The Bajaro Method”, I thought that the author’s understanding of the emotional impact of our environments was helpful.  At first I did not understand what Barbara Kaplan meant when she said that “Rooms don’t have feelings, you do.” Then, as I continued through the chapters, I had an “A-ha” moment. I came to a deeper understanding of how the design choices I make affect the emotions of the occupants. As a young designer, it is up to me to ask the right questions and make a healing, comforting and personal environment. I also have been inspired to look around my own home and think about what changes I want to make for myself and my family. I am pleased with the insight that I gained from reading this book.

Amy S., ASID Allied

I believe that one of the biggest truths in life is that change is constant. When Barbara works with you, she is an amazing source to guide you to make those changes positive, whether you are changing your home, your personal life or your business.

Ruth U., Scottsdale, 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
