Here's what my special clients have to say
"The Reality is better than the Dream"
"The Reality is better than the Dream"
"We first hired Connie to fully furnish and decorate our lowcountry vacation home in 2007. She took the time to understand us and how we were going to live in the space, delivering the perfect home for relaxing, entertaining and hosting family reunions. When we sold it partially furnished because the new owners loved her selections, and moved to our permanent residence here in the lowcountry, again she worked her magic. She orchestrated kitchen and bathroom remodels, paint colors, lighting, window treatments, all the way down to the very well placed books and art. She interwove our existing pieces, family heirlooms, etc with new, and created a complete flow throughout the home. It comfortably reflects and fits the two of us for everyday, is inviting to our extended families and yet can easily transform to entertain 50+. Whether you just want to rearrange existing pieces, find the perfect piece for a difficult spot, decorate for Christmas, or remodel an entire house, I HIGHLY recommend calling Connie. Her connections for our kitchen, lighting, Master Bath, and Dining Room remodel, saved us thousands while still getting our high-end result."

We recently decided we needed to add some rugs to our home. We had no idea
where to start. Connie Dugan was wonderful and walked us through the entire
process. Her patience and knowledge made a difficult process easy. She asked
us a few décor' questions about color and style. From this she was able to
narrow down options to show us and help us make our final selections. Our
rugs look great! We would highly recommend Connie for any decorating help.

"I wanted to kick my condo up a couple of notches in terms of sophistication. Constance was perfect in selecting fabrics and new furniture as well as a new seating arrangement for the living room that looks fabulous and works so well for entertaining. She really listens and gives you so much more than you could ever have expected."
Jessica Murphey Windwill Harbour, Hilton Head Island, SC

We have always said the best investment in our new home was hiring Connie Dugan. Our new home was a blank slate and it was overwhelming to decorate. We had paint colors and curtains to choose, and empty rooms to fill with furniture. One call to Connie and our dream home came to life. Connie was very professional and an excellent listener who quickly understood the style we were trying to achieve. She helped us pick colors for several rooms which flowed well and saved us months of indecision. We loved the colors and were so excited, we started painting the day after she met with us! When it came to curtains, Connie pulled pattern and fabric choices for each room and connected us with the perfect vendor to custom make and install. When purchasing new furniture, Connie knew right where to go and what pieces would fit best into our home and our lifestyle.
We couldn’t be happier with how our new home has come together. My father was so impressed with Connie, he quickly hired her as well to redecorate his home. A friend of ours also hired her. Both are equally pleased with the results from working with Connie.
We have more projects to complete in our home, and Connie will be with us every step of the way!

We worked with Connie on the renovation of our kitchen, choices of paint colors and fabrics for many of the rooms in our house. We found that she listened to our ideas and worked within a predetermined budget when coming up with a design. Connie has impeccable taste and works with a group of very professional contractors that were enjoyable to work with. Decorating and renovating our house with Connie's assistance was a stress free and highly successful experience. We are always receiving complements from our guests.

As an agent with Sotheby's International Realty, my goal is to deliver a greater level of service to my clients and exceed expectations. I am a sales agent...I am not a designer, not a decorator, have few skills with furniture and, accessory placement and a color wheel is a mystery to me! The secret to my success is surrounding myself with the experts and Constance Dugan is my only choice.
Whether the need is new construction design, renovation, an "updated look or consultation for decorating guidance, Constance is my only choice.
Her approach to every single job, no matter the size, is the same as mine: she delivers a greater level of service and exceeds expectations. Constance Dugan is my only choice!

Connie provided excellent interior design service for multiple rooms in our home which included both furniture and fabric selections. Her expertise and creativity, along with her extensive resources helped transform our rooms. Additionally, the recommendations she provided for fabrication of our draperies, duvet and pillows provided outstanding workmanship. She strives to satisfy and does so!

Thank you so much for all your guidance and expertise in designing and helping me select custom rugs for our new home. The finished product looks beautiful and the custom borders you suggested are certainly “conversation pieces”. I did not realize how much of a difference changing rugs can make in a decorating scheme. It has updated my home’s look and definitely enhanced our enjoyment of our living areas.
I will happily refer you to all my friends and clients. Thank you again!

I moved from a very large house into a Carriage House, and needed to de clutter a bit!! I didn't want to part with everything, but needed help deciding what to keep!!! Connie helped me do just that by clearing out what was really not needed, or was out dated!! Re arranging accessories and getting rid of old and outdated silk plants!!!
Connie has a great flair for putting a room together! And a great eye for detail, color, and style! I would definitely use her services, again!!!

Connie is a joy to work with. Her expertise, design sense and attention to detail added immeasurably to my home. She put together those “finishing touches” that made my home feel complete. I highly recommend Connie’s services.

Connie provided the perfect guidance we needed in choosing a hand knotted, investment quality rung for our formal living room. She was able to visualize what ended up to be the perfect choice to compliment our decor . We would highly recommend her.

Connie proved to be our lifesaver as we decorated our new home in Hampton Hall. Because we were also preparing for our daughter's wedding which took place here five months later, timing was important.
She helped place my existing furniture, angled rugs, and arranged shelves in our study. Her eye for style and balance is uncanny and I would not hesitate to recommend her.

I want to thank you for helping with all of the changes to my home. For the longest time I wanted to make the changes but couldn't imagine the outcome would be anything I’d be happy with. Then, after seeing Maureen's home I knew you would make it all happen.
Your suggested colors have made a wonderful uplift to the entire interior. I lived with the builders universal white for too long so with the new colors, the atmosphere has become comfortable and relaxin.
I could never have put the fabrics together as you have. Without your help the furniture would have been replaced and not sure I would have been a step forward in achieving my goals.
How you did all of this so quickly was a tremendous help to me. The dining room host chairs look great. The re-upholster and the furniture re-finisher work was so perfectly done and dealing with them was such a pleasure.
My guests that revisit find it hard to believe it's the same place. You are so creative!
Thank you again for your assistance,
Regards,

Connie came into our new house and pretty much decorated it from top to bottom. She helped us pick out paint colors for the walls. She figured out the best furniture layout for our great room. She helped with the purchase of our furniture. She did a wonderful job in helping us pick out lighting fixtures, window treatments, wall art, accessories, and rugs. We were in need of pretty much everything. She, too, will work with the pieces that you want to incorporate. It was amazing to see how she was able to understand what we wanted and help us get there. We gave her a few challenges along the way, and Connie was able to come back with creative ideas. We, also, wanted a screened in porch built onto the back of our house. Connie has great connections and the builder she recommended did a fabulous job! Connie is very knowledgeable in interior design. She, also, is so easy to work with and stays on the project until it is done. She is always on top of things and stands by her work. If anyone is in need of a decorator, no matter how big or small the job, Bill and I would totally recommend Connie! She was able to turn our house into a home. We absolutely love it!

As a Realtor, I’ve worked with Connie professionally and confidently recommend her services to clients for staging. There’s no question in my mind that her services give me and my clients an edge on the competition and have resulted in shortened time on the market. Connie also worked with me on my personal home over the past several years. We recently sold our home in under 30 days. The most common comment/quetion that we heard over and over again was, “who did your decorating, your house looks incredible!” The best thing about Connie is that she really listens to what is important to you and then tailor’s her approach to your specific interest, tastes and budget. If you’re looking for a true custom look that will stand out, Connie is your decorator!
