She has transformed our house into a beautiful home filled with our favorite colors and style while incorporating our sentimental items into the design and selecting pieces that work well for our large family.

“Shannon Gidney along with Jr. Designer Melissa Catalano are the absolute best!!! This was my first experience with an interior design firm and any expectations I had were far exceeded! Shannon is so patient, kind and extremely knowledgeable. At every appointment she listened to my thoughts, ideas and was able to execute flawlessly offering furnishings, drapery, rugs and décor that aligned with my vision. We had multiple meetings throughout the process. Shannon and Melissa always kept meticulous records regarding my design choices, were timely with communication and providing pricing at each stage. I never felt rushed in making a decision or pushed to spend beyond my budget. I would highly recommend choosing this team for your next project! You will not be disappointed.”

“I highly recommend Shannon Gidney at IBB Designs. She helped me furnish and decorate my home when we first built it 16 years ago. She was so good at quickly understanding what we wanted and providing options that stayed within our budget that we went straight back to her when we decided to update several rooms this year. Again, she exceeded our expectations and we could not be happier with the results! Shannon is very professional and makes the whole process so much easier. You can’t go wrong with her design knowledge. It is fun to watch how easily it is for her to pull everything together from the furniture and draperies down to the little details and accessories. I would use Shannon again in a heartbeat!”
IBB CLIENT ~ JENNY STUTLER
“Shannon and Melissa were wonderful in helping me make selections for our new home, even when I was lost and didn’t think I could make another decision. They went above and beyond to search for the ideas I had found outside of the design center. Even when met with obstacles, they continued to work at getting me what I wanted and they succeeded! I couldn’t have been happier! Shannon gave me honest feedback on some of my ideas which I greatly appreciated. It was a wonderful experience working with them on the selections of our new home, and I have continued to work with them.”

“It was our lucky day when our builder recommended Shannon Gidney with IBB Design to work with on finishes for our new home during the construction process. We met with Shannon to select all the flooring, counter tops, back splashes and paint colors. We liked her so much that we continued to work with her as our designer for all the furniture and window coverings in the home. This is the fourth home we have built in our lifetime, and working with Shannon has made it a total pleasure! She is the perfect blend of creativity and getting things done. We would highly recommend working with Shannon Gidney to anyone who is interested in professional advice and excellent service – whether building a home, or selecting the furnishings – or both!”
