Here at Ammonite Home Styling I tailor my services depending on the brief and budget. If you are trying to sell or rent your house I offer advice, guidance and practical support so that you can go on to style your property yourself, or you can choose to let me take the strain and do everything for you. Either way, I use creativity and resourcefulness to create big impact for the least cost. As well as the design, I do most of the work myself (upholstery, decorating, DIY etc) which means your project will always come in at a good price. My fee also includes a professional photo shoot so that you can be assured of fantastic photos and a WOW first impression on viewing.
It is interior design with a twist!
Home Styling Consultation and Action Plan Report
After a chat on the phone so that you can determine whether I am the right person for you, the first step is a consultation, which will be followed up with a written action plan. You will need to allow about 2 hours for the consultation and in that time I will assess all areas of your property. We will have an in depth conversation and I will take photos and make recommendations there and then on how to increase the saleability of your home. Every home is different of course, but the report will cover areas such as (but not exclusively):
-
any repairs or maintenance that adversely affect the impression that your property makes but can easily be put right
-
room arrangements which could be changed and/or styled to better advantage
-
any areas that need to be redecorated
-
simplifying rooms and identifying possessions which should be pre-packed and stored ready for your next home
-
ideas for accessories or furniture (if necessary)
Following on from the consultation I will review the photographs and think of putting into action the things we talked about. I'll come up with creative ways of emphasizing your property's good points and minimizing its downsides and draw up a prioritized action plan for you to follow. ​
Cost: £200. Please call to chat and arrange a consultation.
Home Styling 'Action plan +'
After the consultation you may decide that you would like my help with executing your action plan and more detailed recommendations. The Action Plan + service will build on your action plan by providing:
-
A suggested programme of works for you to work from
-
Colour design scheme boards (detailed mood boards) showing not only a suggested colour scheme but also depicting new purchases such as paint colour, furniture, accessories etc
-
Swatches and samples of paints and soft furnishings, if relevant
-
CAD 2D floorplans to show you exactly where to put furniture, accessories etc
-
A detailed list of recommended items for purchase, with prices and sources (all sourced from my favourite retailers who sell good quality items at value prices)
-
Details of how to upcycle/update pieces of your furniture (if relevant)
Cost: from £200 per room (in addition to the consultation visit and action plan report). The cost of the consultation and action plan + is refundable if you go on to book a bespoke service with me).​
Bespoke Full Home Styling Service
If you are busy or do not live at the property and would like the styling to happen before your very eyes this all-in service is just for you! I do everything for you from the initial consultation through to taking the rubbish away.
This package includes the consultation and Action Plan +, and in addition I project manage the styling for you. After agreeing the action plan and design with you I will submit a detailed quotation, to include trades quotes for jobs that I can't do myself. Once you have agreed the quotation and contract and paid a deposit we will get going:
-
Instructing my trusted trades for jobs that are too specialized for me to do myself, securing trade prices for works and supervising
-
Coordinating these trades so that things are done in the right order
-
Sourcing furniture, rugs, accessories etc, and storing them for you until installation
-
Renting furniture, if relevant
-
Upcycling existing furniture, if required, and sourcing preloved pieces to upcycle
-
Making artwork and other décor (e.g. sourcing and framing artwork, making driftwood items)
-
Making soft furnishings as required (e.g. curtains, cushions, recovering preloved chairs, stools etc, if relevant)
-
Decorating (painting and wallpapering) and simple DIY (not gas, plumbing or electrics that must be done by a registered expert).
-
Borrowing accessories from my stock of special things to use during the photo shoot (to save you having to buy them)
-
Final installation when it all comes together, and dressing in preparation for the photo shoot and the 'reveal'!
Cost: The price of this depends on the extent of the work to be done and the number of rooms styled. From £500 per room. Please contact me to discuss.
Decluttering and organisation
Our decluttering and organisation service also starts with a consultation and this is free of charge. We will discuss your requirements and afterwards I will give you a written quotation based on our estimate of days needed + the cost of storage solutions.
Usually clients prefer to work together when decluttering, as it is DIFFICULT! If you would prefer this bespoke option I will prepare a quotation which includes the cost of storage accessories, and installation when decluttering is finished, which I will do on my own while you are out so that you can have a delicious reveal! The decluttering days themselves are charged on a daily basis and include my disposing of rubbish and donating unwanted items. Perhaps you can persuade someone to give it to you for a birthday gift? Please call to chat and arrange a consultation. £150 per day.
