“Cynthia recently staged our home in preparation for listing photos taken. She honored us as homeowners by working WITH us. We felt an active part of her process. Cynthia made the transformation of our home purposefully and tastefully. I appreciated her compliments on our home and it’s belongings even if decor was removed for staging purposes. I learned so much at her side as she explained much about balance, appeal and spaciousness in preparing a home for listing. Less is definitely more! As one begins to declutter and open up a room you begin to appreciate peaceful effects of changes.  My take away learning is, just because I have it, I don’t have to use it! I am excited to employ Cynthia’s techniques in choosing our next house and making it a home. She spent several hours of hard, dedicated work with us. The proof is now in the gorgeous video tour that will accompany our upcoming listing. The only problem is, Cynthia created a look at our house through fresh eyes. Now I truly may not want to leave. Even though we plan to move north, I would love to consult with Cynthia in the future!”

Pat Birnbaum - Mills River, NC

“Cynthia was a God-send!  I am from Arkansas but my daughter’s family has lived in the Charleston area for over eleven years.  When I received a frantic call on December 19 that she had gone into early labor with her fourth pregnancy at only 29 weeks we packed up and headed out to stay with her three little girls while she was on bed rest at MUSC.  I desperately wanted to do something special for her during this time to brighten her spirits.  Having known she was weary of having her home the exact same way for almost six years, I decided to have the interior redesigned.  I asked one of my daughter’s special church members who she would recommend and she gave me Cynthia’s name.  Within two days of my call we set an appointment with Cynthia and in four hours she totally revitalized the first floor of their home.  She did a walk through and was able to use items from throughout the house to liven up the living area.  Not only did she move and rearrange and hang, she suggested different wall colors and specific items we could look for should we want to invest additional money to do some new things as well.  Needless to say I was thrilled and my daughter was overwhelmed.  When she was able to come back home after six weeks in the hospital, she wept as she went through each part of her fresh, ‘new’ home.  I think what was most special to me was Cynthia’s heart that was obvious when she heard the situation we were in.  She was efficient, focused, and so very helpful in her ideas.  Thank you, Cynthia!  Your heart shows in your work and we could never have done this without you.”

Judy Wallace - Bald Knob, Arkansas

“Cynthia was absolutely a delight to work with. Her energy is infectious and she has a "get 'er done' attitude which I loved. We implemented many of her ideas and she thought of ways to move our furniture that we never thought of. I will say that we did put back a few of the things that she took down or moved out just because it did seem a little bare without some "homey" things. But that was just a personal preference. If you are planning to put your home on the market, I would recommend highly that you hire Cynthia as the first thing on your "TO DO" list because she will get the ball rolling and "set the stage" for the next steps ahead.”

Sandra Hayes - Hendersonville, NC

"Cynthia's personal touch to decor is easy to spot - it looks like you've just had a photo shoot session for a magazine, yet the space is comfortable and inviting.  For over 11 years now, Cynthia has been the #1 decorating influence in my life.  She has the natural 'eye!'   Every time I move, redecorate, or add something new to my decor, I base my decisions on what Cynthia has taught me." 

R. Osteen - Charleston, SC

“Cynthia came over for a paint and flooring consult. Her ideas and sense of color were just what we needed. We are re-doing a basement with some unique challenges, but she had suggestions for them all. We got much more than we bargained for and I can't wait to get this project in motion. We will definitely use her expertise again when needed.”

Mary Jane Sinclair - Hendersonville, NC

“Working with a home stager was a new experience for me. Cynthia was very efficient and worked quickly to get my second home ready to put on the market. She interacted with me and our realtor to do the best job possible and I have been very pleased with the final results. The items that she had to purchase, she did so with cost in mind to keep any extra costs to a minimum. I really appreciated her ability to do a great job in a very timely manner. It was a pleasure to work with Cynthia.”

Charlotte Parris - Hendersonville, NC

"We all know that this is a tough, tough time to try and sell a house.  But, with three growing children, we simply have outgrown the home and need something bigger.  Contacting Cynthia to help me “stage” my home was probably the smartest decision I could have made.  She helped me to understand the differences between decorating a home and setting a home up to be as pleasing and inviting to a potential buyer as possible.  I must have had a dozen “ah, ha” moments in the two hours we spent together, going through each room of the house and walking the perimeter.  Very simple, affordable changes and additions to this house, through Cynthia’s expertise leave me feeling very confident of a much quicker sale than would have otherwise been the case." 

Veronica Fuller - Mt. Pleasant, SC

"Working with Cynthia and her assistant was a blast!  Her enthusiasm for what she does is contagious.  My house looks like a model home.  I told Cynthia I want her to come and help decorate my home when I move!  The process was much less painful than I thought it would be.  I packed up items while she decorated.  Now I feel I have a head start on packing so that when my house sells I won't have so much to do."  

S. Henley - Charleston, SC

"Cynthia Pulsifer is FANTASTIC!!!  I was in the middle of preparing my home for sale and felt deadlocked on my next steps.  Cynthia rescued me from wasting time and money.  She helped me see the items I had in a new light and with a few tweaks was able to showcase my home's best features to appeal to prospective buyers.  Thank you so much Cynthia and I am excited to work with you in the future.  Warm wishes." 

Angela B. - North Charleston, SC

“I have been working with Cynthia Pulsifer for about a year now with different projects over the phone. When we decided to sell our house, we knew we needed to lighten the paint colors to assure a quick and seamless sale. After speaking with Cynthia and hearing her suggestions, we took her advice and chose the Divine White paint she suggested to paint the interior of our house. It really looked much lighter, brighter and gave a more spacious feel. Our house sold the first day on the market, for our full asking price! We are very grateful to have had her assistance on that project. Because of my positive experience working with Cynthia on the paint project, I was actually willing to go so far as to fly her out to our new home in Idaho so that I could have confidence in the new design of my living room. She, instead was willing to do a thorough, detailed phone consultation. We went online together for a few hours and chose a sofa, 2 chairs and an ottoman with custom fabric choices and pillows that would work with the existing paint colors in our new home. She gave me two color choices from which to choose, and advised me to check out the fabric samples and compare them for the best color match. The results were far beyond my expectations, and are quite stunning. I am very excited about going to the local store to order my furniture and let them know that my designer helped me select everything. Needless to say, I will certainly continue to call Cynthia whenever I need professional design help and will not hesitate to refer her to any of my friends.“

J. Campo - Summerville, SC

"Cynthia was a great help to me when I decided to redecorate my home.  She knew just what would make our chaotic home feel put together and relaxing.  She picked the paint colors and "theme" so that everything flowed together from the front door to the upstairs.  She shopped for all of the accessories, arranged them and hung all the pictures.  She also helped us pick furniture that would fit our space as well as pick out the fabrics and colors.  I felt very comfortable putting it all in her capable hands.  The process was very quick and I am thrilled with the results."  

Tamera Chorba - Charleston, SC

"I have a glass room. You know the kind that looks like its an after thought, an addition. Cynthia worked with me on a redesign so that it was cozy, complementary colors to tie in to the rest of the house and looked like it was always there. The way she integrates what you already own, new furniture and deco items along with items she has secured over the years and bring them all together is true art!"

K. Hubert - Goose Creek, SC

Cynthia, thank you for your help and expertise.  The house looks awesome.  We thought the house looked good before you came over, but you were able to see the things that we could not.  Thanks again." 

J. & M. Haynes - Charleston, SC

“It was a pleasure to work with Cynthia and her assistant.  They did a fantastic job and I can hardly believe all these things were already in my home.  It was just like on TV!  I will gladly recommend Cynthia to my friends here in Charleston.”

L. VanPelt - Mt. Pleasant, SC

"I would highly recommend Cynthia for any staging project.  She is professional, efficient, fair-minded and fun!  I couldn't have done it without her."    

Anne Batchelder - Dewees Island

"Our house looks amazing!  Cynthia's artistry brought out the house's best assets.  Her great ideas will help us sell our home!" 

J. E. Stewart - Harbor City Real Estate Advisors, Charleston, SC

"Cynthia has had a passion and creative flair for decorating as long as I have known her (20 years).  She has helped me a lot when we have moved, especially when it comes to selecting and hanging artwork.  She showed me how to position artwork to create a flowing line around the room.  She has great ideas for selecting accessories of certain colors and textures to bring out your own personal style.  She is also a lot of fun to work with!"

“Cynthia Pulsifer of Fresh Interior Solutions stood out during our interior design consultation. She gave us outstanding advice on upgrading our home’s look using what we already owned, offering creative suggestions for a fresh new perspective while keeping everything practical and budget-friendly.
She shared design “secrets” that opened our eyes to why certain arrangements work beautifully and others don’t. As someone who listens attentively, Cynthia took the time to understand our personalities and how we actually live in our space. We were looking for affordable updates without a full overhaul, and she delivered exactly that. She gave us ideas tailored to make our home comfortable and reflective of us. Once we implement all of Cynthia’s recommendations, I know it will be cozy, cohesive, and inviting.
Even after the consultation ended, Cynthia went the extra mile: she sent us helpful links to online furnishings perfectly suited for our home and patiently answered our follow-up questions about sizes and placement. Her passion-driven, hands-on help turned our somewhat discombobulated rooms into spaces we’re excited to come home to.
It was absolutely worth it, and I highly recommend Fresh Interior Solutions to anyone wanting a refreshed, personalized home without breaking the bank!”

Thomas Bramel - The Villages, FL

“I found myself in a pickle, needing to put my house up for sale and my house in complete disarray. There was no flow to the decor in my house and it was all mixed matched. The minute I called Cynthia I felt very comfortable with her. She came to my house and did an evaluation and told me everything that I needed and about how long it would take for us to complete the task. I wanted to be very involved because I wanted to keep the decor for my other house because money was an issue for me. Cynthia took all this into consideration and she stayed within my budget. She is very easy to work with and made my house look amazing. I am very happy and amazed with how beautiful my house looks! I would highly recommend using her and her expertise because she knows her stuff. My only regret is that she can’t come to my next house to do the same.”

Ivonne Norris - Hendersonville, NC

“I met with Cynthia yesterday at my house that we are trying to sell. I needed some suggestions in improvements. We thought we needed to rent furniture and have it staged. But Cynthia didn't think it was necessary. She helped me to choose the right paint color for the house, took photos, gave me small ideas how to fix little things around that I couldn't see. She came on time and she was very helpful and kind. She also stayed longer than we agreed to and didn't charge me extra. That was very nice of her. I would definitely use her services again.”

Lucia Cota - Hendersonville, NC

“I worked with Cynthia as her Realtor and sold her a house in Hendersonville. The transformation from the house she bought to the house she sold was mind boggling. Her sense of style, understanding of space and ability to create a serene environment was superior and beyond belief. Upon resale a year and a half later to downsize, everyone said the house showed like a model and was one of the prettiest and well staged homes they had ever seen. I can heartily and easily suggest that you consider Cynthia’s skillset when considering home staging for sale or redecorating for your own personal enjoyment.”

Gail Satz - George Real Estate Group - Hendersonville, NC

“Cynthia assisted us in choosing wall colors for several rooms. We were very pleased with her recommendations and all of the rooms look great. We were also very pleased that she followed up a few days later to make sure we liked our choices.”

Jane Eble - Hendersonville, NC

“I have been able to view a property in Hendersonville where Cynthia updated and staged for sale and another she redecorated. In both, she uses color, furniture, and decor with tremendous skill to accomplish a spacious, inviting, and unique appearance. She is not just talented in the interior design, but passionate about working with her clients.“

S. Wicker - Hendersonville, NC

"In January of 2006 we contacted Cynthia Pulsifer with a monumental task.  We were attempting to decorate a new 13,000 square foot church auditorium with a Charleston low country look and feel.  Cynthia listened intently to our desires and immediately went to work.  She brought us 3 color pallets to choose from.  From there she guided us with paint and fabric selection, chair styles, carpet, tiles, and mirrors.  During the entire process she was readily available and accessible.  Today we are thrilled with the final product.  Guests frequent our facility from around the country and they all marvel at the way Cynthia captured the look and feel of the marsh, the beach, and the sand of the Charleston area.  Cynthia is a professional that we will call upon again."  

Pastor Butler - Victory Baptist Church - Charleston, SC

“Several years ago my husband Richard and I built a house. We did a lot of the work ourselves. When it came to color coordination, we were at a loss. Cynthia was the best. She came to the rescue for us. She helped us pick wood floors and tile for our home. During that time, we went on a 3 week mission’s trip. While we were gone, she picked 2 or 3 countertop choices for us and paint colors. There were some major decisions to be made and we trusted her to make those for us. We were not disappointed when we got back. She also helped us with putting out our decor and hanging pictures. She has a great way of helping you so you get what you want without being pushy. We highly recommend her.”

K. and R. Helms - Suches, GA

“I appreciated Cynthia’s professional yet personal approach. She coordinated paint colors for me and I was impressed at how knowledgable she was in working with color. She brought fresh ideas and a new perspective to my outdated wall colors. I’ve also seen how she decorates her own house. Impressive!”

Ruth King - Fairview, NC

"Cynthia helped me with a challenging window treatment and took what seemed to be an impossible situation and made it seem effortless, and did it within my budget.  She selected beautiful draperies to match my existing decor during our shopping trip together.  I am well pleased with the results."  

L. Bostic - Charleston, SC

"I had the pleasure of working with Cynthia in 2005. I had just completed building a home on Johns Island and needed help in choosing a wall color for the entire house.  I had tried, and missed every time - choosing colors that were just awful. Looked good on the tiny color swatch, but dreadful on the wall.  She was a God send - picked out the perfect color almost instantly!  She helped me pick fabric and trim for pillows and an ottoman, and helped me re-arrange the furniture.  She even personally helped me lay down a sea grass carpet and padding!  Cynthia was always a pleasure to work with.  I would recommend her services highly."

"I'd been wanting to repaint my living room and dining room for a good while, however I was just spinning my wheels when it came to choosing colors.  After a chance meeting with Cynthia, I invited her to my home for a consult.  In no time, Cynthia suggested paint colors for me to try.  I must admit, I was a bit skeptical about the green, but I went with it.  I am glad I did and love the new look.  Thanks Cynthia!" 

D. Hansel - Charleston, SC

"Cynthia helped my daughter-in-law and I make good decisions by choosing the right scale of furniture for my small apartment.  The furniture and fabrics coordinate well together as she spent a lot of time with us in the selection process.  I get compliments all the time on my apartment.  I would give her a 10!"     

A. Vinson - Charleston, SC

"Working with Cynthia on a paint consultation and interior redesign was such a great experience!  She helped me pick out the perfect paint colors for my home and create the warm and cozy feel I was hoping for.  She also was respectful of my design ideas while opening me up to new trends that really helped to update the décor in my home.  It is amazing how different my existing furniture and accessories look when placed in a different spot or grouped together in a certain way I wouldn’t have thought of on my own.  Most importantly, I really appreciated how understanding and flexible she was in working with my hectic and sometimes unpredictable schedule!" 

Bonnie Miley - Summerville, SC

"I contacted Cynthia and she provided me with same day service to stage my home!  She turned my bachelor pad into a desirable place to hang your hat.  I would highly recommend her services!" 

Harold Hutzler - Agent Owned Realty - Mt. Pleasant, SC

“In the beginning I was overwhelmed and shocked that I had to remove so much of my stuff, but Cynthia pulled it all together and made my house look beautiful for showing to sell. Now I love the new look of my house so much because I realize that less is better. Everything shows well now and I am very pleased with Cynthia’s help to make this possible.”
