Frequently Asked Questions
Why is there a charge for the consultation?
Whether or not you decide to move forward with AGC Home Styled, you will come away with strategic, actionable steps for feathering your nest on your own. If you move forward with the design phase, the information gained during the consultation will provide a valuable jump start to the design process. Win-win!!!
What if I have a young family but like your style. Can I still work with you?
Absolutely! Although I am now an empty nester and am passionate about helping women create beautiful homes once kids have left the nest, I was once a mother of young children and would love to help you create a vibrant, family friendly home.
I have quite a few pieces of furniture that I love. Can we use them in my design?
Of course! That is a big part of what I love to do. Taking what you have and love and reimagining it in a way that feels fresh and new!
I don’t have a big budget but I have champagne taste. Can I have it all?
I love a challenge and will use my unique expertise to creatively mix high and low budget pieces, add unique customization and curate fun fabric mixes in order to create the best possible design for each individual client. I also love vintage and consignment shopping and will do my best to find that one of a kind piece to make your nest shine!
How can I get the most out of working with Ann?
Clients want their homes to function beautifully and look amazing and I want to exceed your expectations. I want to take your nest to a place that you might not have imagined possible! To do that however, requires trust on your part! Trust that I will always keep your vision as my guide. Trust that I have done this before and may gently push you a little outside of your comfort zone to ensure that when your project is complete, you are absolutely delighted!
What if I like most of my home but it just doesn’t feel quite right. Can Ann help me?
Sure! If you have a pretty good idea for how you want your home to look and feel but just want a little hand-holding, a block of design hours is the perfect way to have a second set of eyes on your project. I will be happy to give you my opinion on your choices so that you can move forward with confidence!

“I am absolutely amazed at my “Styling Day” results! Fresh air has been breathed into my home! After living in my home for 16 years, my decor had gotten stale. My furniture hasn’t moved and I didn’t even notice things on my shelves anymore. My shelves actually had become very cluttered because I’d always squeeze “one more” thing on them. Ann and her team did an incredible job of starting from scratch, taking everything off the shelves, and then re-setting everything in such a beautiful and balanced way! They used most of my old items (frames, vases, figurines, and books) and brought in a few new things too. They lined the back of my dining room cabinet with bright grass paper so you can actually see my china and crystal now. They updated the curtain rods my front rooms to bring it up to current trends. Some furniture was moved around to rethink spaces. My walls are now adorned with some beautiful new finds - lovely and very reasonable... I am keeping more than I thought I would going into this. It’s like having your girlfriends shop and decorate for you and they totally know your taste! It is so lovely for me to walk into all of my re-designed rooms now... so fresh yet familiar, and very happy! ”
