“Kathryn led a renovation and interior design of our kitchen, dining room, living room, and entryway. Her vision and ability to clearly show us “what could be” was fantastic. She transformed our kitchen, dining room, living room and entryway into captivating spaces that exude both functionality and style. Kathryn’s attention to detail is evident in every corner, ensuring a seamless blend of modern functionality and timeless aesthetics. The thoughtful design choices, coupled with the incorporation of timeless decorative pieces, have elevated the overall ambiance of our home. Kathryn’s expertise not only enhanced the visual appeal but also optimized the practical use of each space. I would strongly recommend working with Kathryn (and her connections to quality craftsmen) if you are looking for interior renovation and/or interior design work.”

“Kathryn is a creative phenomenon – she tirelessly combs through estate sales, antique shops, and traditional retailers to find the perfect mix of beautiful, unique pieces to combine with your existing foundational items to create a look that is timeless and completely customized to your home. Her eye for color, texture and placement is incredible – and I have worked with other designers in the past and no one has worked harder and brought more beauty, comfort and style to my home. Kathryn has designed our living spaces, three bathroom renovations, our kitchen renovation, a screened-in porch, and an outdoor space (with pool!) that ties together to make our house a home! She works with projects of all sizes and budgets and is one-of-a-kind!”

“Kathryn is absolutely AMAZING to work with. I almost didn’t buy our house because of how much I hated the kitchen but I knew we would be able to renovate it one day. When we finally decided to take the plunge to renovate our kitchen and half bath I just knew I needed help. From the minute Kathryn walked in the door she could tell what my style was and understood my pain points with the current kitchen (especially with having young children). She drew out an amazing plan so we could utilize our space in the best way possible- gave us a bigger pantry, an island where my kids can sit to eat and do homework, and moved our fridge to a space where we weren’t always walking into it. She helped me pick gorgeous countertops, floors, paint colors, backsplash, cabinet handles, and more. I will never do another project without Kathryn and you shouldn’t either!”

“I had never worked with a designer prior to reaching out to The Carved Tulip, and now may never decorate without Kathryn again! Her ability to listen to what styles I like, respect and work into rooms pieces I have and love, and her eye for design are a dynamic combination. She is super easy to work with, and is so well connected in the area too. If you are thinking of a refresh or rearrangement or a complete overhaul call her today! My only regret is that I don’t have more rooms to work with her on. She helped redo my living room, dining room, and master bedroom, as well as suggested minor changes in other rooms that make me feel like I’m in a new home!”

— Allison, Ashburn, VA

“I had been struggling to make decisions on what to do with our dining room, hoping to create a unique space that flowed well with our kitchen and living room, which are in adjoining spaces. Kathryn came out to our home and spent 2 hours not only talking about the dining room but getting a sense for my other spaces, what I loved, what I didn’t, and what our needs were. She was extremely professional but warm and approachable, and I very much appreciated her practical solutions to creating a space that was styled, but family-friendly and durable for kids. In the initial consult she styled a few spaces, made suggestions, moved things here and there, and put to better use several decor items we already owned in new and better ways. Once created, Kathryn’s design plan blended items we owned with new items, antiques, and a custom trim work and molding project. She stayed in touch throughout the project, was very mindful of our budget, and the end result is a space that we love. I cannot recommend her enough and am looking forward to working with her again on future projects!”

“I had such fun working with Kathryn of The Carved Tulip Interior Decorating & Styling! Kathryn "shopped" my basement and helped me to overcome my fear of walls and what to put on them. Kathryn is full of ideas, inspiration, and energy. Her style is simple, yet elegant, and she has an eye for editing spaces. If you need to bring new life to your home or work space, I would recommend Kathryn!”

“Kathryn has been a delight to work with. She is talented, engaging and focused on our little project, never failing to respond and follow up on very specific requirements. She also has a keen eye for our Mid Century Modern design criteria. She listened to what we wanted while giving us imaginative ideas for décor and furniture placement. She also magically transformed our full-wall living room bookshelves into lovely vignettes! We would highly recommend Kathryn for your interior decorating project.”

— Mark and Linda, Leesburg, VA

“I highly recommend The Carved Tulip for decorating and styling your living space! Kathryn has an incredible talent for utilizing the treasures already in your home while incorporating new pieces to help bring your vision to reality. She transformed two rooms in my house, and I couldn't be happier with the results. She was extremely patient, willing to talk through suggestions and options, and a pleasure to work with.”

— Amy, Leesburg, VA

“Kathryn is my go-to decorator anytime I am thinking of adding or changing anything in my home. She has a great eye and is creative with mixing, matching, and rearranging. I trust her to make adjustments to what I already have in my house and to help me add new things. I have asked for her advice on furniture, wall décor, and even plants! She can help make any room feel more like home.”

— Lauren, Arlington, VA

“The Carved Tulip was exactly what I needed! I was stuck trying to figure out how to arrange my dining room which is small and serves many functions (it’s our entrance, dining room, and siting area). It felt cramped and heavy, and I couldn’t figure how to make it all work together. Enter Kathryn. I was worried I was 500 miles away, but through a few pictures and phone call, she was able to help me totally transform my room, without buying a thing! She saw options in my own home that I didn’t, and now I have a room I love. I am so glad The Carved Tulip does remote styling and will be using them again for our master bedroom!”
