Overall, it was a horrible experience. She took me to a lighting store saying that would be my best discount. I then discovered I was being charged full retail. She gave me a price on a carpet sample. I took the sample to a local store and their full retail price was much less than what she had quoted. She did not follow through with things that she was asked to do and her stories often changed. She quoted me one price in writing then tried to charge me a higher price. She then tried to prove her higher price and her paper trail did not match her verbal price. She did not do a good job of monitoring when things would arrive and she did not order everything that she was asked to order. Overall, it was a negative experience.
Description of Work: Helped decorate a couple of rooms.

The member is totally off base and hurtful. I use Bishop lighting and can NEVER remember taking her there. Must have been one of her other"designers". I never remember taking her to a carpet store . I use Kerman's and they always give retail pricing to the client. If I did take carpet samples it was a qoute that was given to me. She only ordered furniture, AND the fabric was back ordered as oven happens. The furniture company even emailed an explanation to her. I spent many hours w/ the member. She stole my drapery design and had someone else fabricate them. She is falsley accusing me of something that never happened and I don't appreciate it. She kept adding to the order which also causes delays. The only price difference was the addition to upgrade her sofa cushions. She was the nightmare. She obviously has a problem w/ women owned business if you look at her report history. Their interior had pink base paint color and was a total mess. I tried to get her to change and was challenged every time.The fabrics she showed me she wanted to use were outdated and ugly. I can not help back orders, nor do I make the furniture. I am at the mercy of my manufactures. I have dedicated myself to service for my clients. They know if they have a problem to come directly to me. Not post ugly words on a web site. That is the coward's way out. I am suprised this person works w/ children.

I had a horrible experience overall with Kristina. I purchased a certificate for 5 hours that she had donated to our school auction. She made a 1 hour appointment with me at a time and day of her choosing and I agreed to it. She missed the appt and did not call me. When I called her 45 min after the appt time, she was EXTREMELY rude and confrontational and never apologized for missing her appt. She made it clear to me that she did not want to give her ''time'' to help me since it was donated (even though I paid for it). I have not been treated this badly by someone in a long time! We agreed to end the relationship.
Description of Work: Was supposed to have Kristina help me with decorating ideas in a few rooms in my home.

Once again another person I have NEVER met! This person is not of a sound mind. I wouldn't know this person if I passed her on the street.I can't belive Angie's list post these crazy people. I ALWAYS SCREEN MY PEOPLE. If I don't feel comfortable w/ a conversation, I don't feel comfortable entering their house. It's a safety issue. At this time I was going through a cancer scare, which is a personal issue that I really don't feel I need to share w/ people. I called this person" I've never met" to tell her I was running late and I would be there around 10:30, because I was at an apt. at the time and you don't know how long you'll be at a doctor's office. I was working on a show home at the time so I was killing time going over it w/ another person who was with me. I ask her to reschedule for another time. Normal people would understand and reschedule, she didn't , she was irrate, threating. & screaming , I couldn't believe the hate in this person's voice.I couldn't believe people act this way over an interior design consultation. I made a VERY wise choice and decided not to have anything to do w/ this person, ever. This is not normal behavior in a human. I choose not to deal w/ threatning people. It's interior design, not a life and death situation. Like I said , I have never met this person, I don't care to. She was so ridiculous, she wanted to get her money back from her children's preschool auction. I don't donate money, I donate hours. She wanted to take the money away from her children's school. Right there, with the threats and the comment about taking the money back I was taken back and could not believe what I was hearing.I never care to know someone like that or do business with them, ever. The only reason she posted on Angie's list is because she is friends w/ Angie Hicks. I was NEVER notified of this crazy person accusations on Angie's list or I would have responded in a different manner. My clients notify me if there is a problem, like normal people do. Once again, not post on a website. I am being "nice" in regards to this person. Her comment about I didn't call her until 45 min later is totally a lie. I call if I'm 5 min late, always. Silent Auctions are donations of a person's time, not monitary or selected items, TIME. It is up to the donator when they have the time for the donation.I have always donated to schools because children are so important to me. But when you have someone who is threatning, then it ruins all that is good in these silent auctions.

SHE HAS CREATIVE IDEAS AND A GOOD SENSE OF STYLE.
