Working with Joy is like working with a longtime friend. She knows just what to ask to understand your style, so she’s able to point you or take you in the right direction. She gives you numerous options for your space or area. She happened to help me with an entire remodel of my home from traditional to transitional, always balancing out mine and my husband’s different ideas. One of the best things about Joy is she teaches you along the way, gives you tips and tricks for your space. And, no matter what she will always find a place for something that is sentimental to you. She LOVES what she does and if you aren’t friends with her in the beginning you will be by the end. She sees JOY in any and all spaces.

My experience with Joy Elben was fantastic! She helped transform a 1980’s condo into a beautiful and welcoming home that far exceeded my hopes and expectations. Joy was interested in my preferences from the very beginning and created a shared Pinterest board where I could post photos of our current home and rooms and items I liked. From there, she added suggestions ranging from flooring, rugs, and tile to furniture, art work, and decor. She guided me through choices that included style, functionality, size, colors, textures, trends, etc. Every time I opened the app or received a text, it was like Christmas as she offered options for me to consider. Joy helped me build confidence and encouraged me to see outside of my comfort zone to make choices that were fresh and new. One of the aspects that I appreciated greatly was her quick response when I needed to make a time-sensitive decision and her patience as I changed my mind over and over again.  Her responsiveness, eye for design, and ability to identify her clients’ needs made the process one of my most enjoyable experiences, and I absolutely love the final results!! Thank you Joy!!

The way that Joy sees a room, and all the potential it holds, is incredible. The biggest blessing was helping me figure out my decor style. I now have the knowledge of what will work in my home and what won’t. I don’t have to guess, which is so freeing. The design boards she puts together for each room are also invaluable. It’s like she can read your design mind, and puts it all together for you seamlessly. I would still be wandering around aimlessly, in some home store, without a clear direction, if not for her help.

Reaching out to Joy for help with my decor was such a wonderful decision! I had been accused of having a bland, boring style, and that's not the kind of house I wanted my kids to grow up in. Home is where we do life and make memories. I wanted our home to be a peaceful, beautiful place, but I didn't have the courage or the direction to figure out how to make that happen. Joy knew exactly what to do, and as a result our home is everything I wished for, and more.

Having worked with Joy on numerous events and projects, I found her work not only to be exemplary but her work ethic to be just as strong. Her devotion to every project brought a freshness to every design area. She was always willing to work within the budget, and she did it with zeal. Her fortitude to find the best priced items and not lose the level of excellence for the design only added to her already thought-provoking designs. It was always a pleasure to work with and alongside Joy on every project or event.
