Initial Consultation This consultation is for those that want the project to be handled by us entirely. This consultation begins with a visit to your home in order to assess what is needed to complete your interior design needs. We will get to know each other, assess the project, and take pictures and detailed notes. During this consultation we can formulate a plan to further address your decorating needs. This normally involves a Design Plan that is presented to you, which includes an estimated cost for the services provided by Ruthie Staalsen Interiors.
