THE PAINT CHIP NEVER SEEMS TO BE CORRECT, DOES IT?
It's not your imagination, small paint chips do not represent what your walls will look like when painted. Not. At. All. And they certainly do not tell you how well the color will (or won't) work with your furnishings.
With our highly-acclaimed, international CERTIFIED TRUE COLOUR EXPERT™ training and certification we learned exactly what to look for in choosing paint colors.
Between wall color, cabinets, counters, trim, flooring, and furnishing, Melanie can help you pull it all together and make your home look and feel cohesive. Schedule a Paint Color Consultation today.

"HAPPY PLACE INTERIORS SPREADS SUNSHINE"
Happy Place Interiors was interviewed by Midwest Home, a premier online home magazine. The article features a recent project in which Melanie was hired to style a home with art and decor, but ended up giving the homeowner so much more and truly fulfilling her needs.
We are honored to have been nominated for a second year for the StarTribune Reader's Choice Minnesota's Best for Interior Design firm.
It was so great meeting with you Melanie. After several design consults, it was so refreshing to have such a collaborative experience that feels like the perfect amount of
hand-holding and independence.

Our one-on-one consultation with Melanie was wonderful! She worked with us on designing every aspect of this room. It really fits the style that we were going for and she has continued to be there every step of the way as we finish designing the room. My husband and I are both very happy and can't wait to work with her on other rooms in our house!
– Megan
Thank you so much for your vision! Honestly I am now excited for the first time about this house and can finally see a way forward.
– Imelda
"I felt so comfortable sharing my home and its nuances with Melanie, and she knew exactly how to encourage and inspire me. I will refer to her as my home décor therapist going forward! Her service was exactly what I needed — an objective view of where I am and where I want to go, including current needs with an eye on resale. I now have a focus with a plan and process."
– Jean
Thank you SO much for coming by. I loved all of your ideas and they were very cost effective too. I am excited to try all of the things you suggested. And the furniture arrangement for the mancave was a great as well. I’m very excited to try the paint colors too. You left me feeling motivated!
– Alicia
Thank you, Melanie!
I was a little intimidated to have someone come out, but your openess, enthusiasm and practical tips were awesome.
– Starr
Hi Melanie-- I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. You blew my expectations away and it truly feels like a home now. I appreciate your hard work more than you know. – Sam
FROM
STRESS CITY
TO
RELAXING OASIS
Melanie helps clients transform their spaces into happy places. However, her approach isn't "take the project and run with it" as conventional interior designers do. Instead, she collaborates and guides her clients as they create it.
With her fresh approach, her clients can finally get unstuck and "see a vision" for their space. This often happens after she rearranges their furniture and opens their eyes to possibilities.
Then she gives her client the know-how, resources and anything else needed for her client to execute the plan at their own pace.
ART DRIVE
FOR BRIDGING
THE FIRST STEP IN CREATING YOUR HAPPY PLACE IS TO EDIT YOUR BELONGINGS.
If you have artwork, framed photography or wall hangings that no longer bring you joy (or never really did), it's time to re-home them to a family who will love them.
With all appointments, Happy Place Interiors will gladly collect all of your unused artwork and donate it to Bridging, a non-profit that helps furnish homes for individuals and families transitioning out of homelessness.
Any size, any style. Old or new. Dated or current. If it's not serving you, allow it to serve others. Let's spread happiness together.
JUST FOR FUN
Your happy place is more than a physical location, it's a state of mind. From throw pillows, travel mugs to workout gear, we now have fun products that reflect your happy place wherever you are. In addition to the Happy Place style, we'll be adding more designs in the near future. Check back often.
GIFT HAPPY
Most of us have plenty of things — give the gift of happiness!
