Why did you choose to book Nina from Working Wonders?

When I visited the show houses I was most impressed with one in particular. It turned out to be the one Nina designed. As it happened she was there also that day and I was introduced to her. I asked for a ballpark figure of the likely cost to fit out a house to a similar standard. I got a forthright response and was impressed by her apparent professionalism. Nina had done an amazing job on the show house so I thought if she could do the same again I would be more than pleased.

What benefits did Nina bring to you through the service you received from her?

Nina dealt with all aspects of the project. The experience she had working on Show House was invaluable as she knew all the pitfalls. She was able to make improved design changes to the construction of the house. She prepared all specifications for joiners, tilers, electricians and plumbers. In addition she designed the layout of the en-suite bathrooms and the kitchen and the positioning of all light fixtures throughout the house. She ensured that all work was carried out to the highest standard and to specification and made the contractor redo work when necessary. Nina sourced all fixtures and fittings, including bathrooms, kitchen and lighting and all flooring, tiles, window treatments and furniture throughout the house, and made certain that the best price was achieved.

I felt Nina was very much in tune with my requirements and her experience on similar projects could not be overlooked. The unique perspective brought to the project by her extensive knowledge and experience of interior design coupled with her understanding of Feng Shui has resulted in the creation of an amazing home where the emphasis is on relaxation and rejuvenation.

I met Nina when I attended one of her feng shui classes. So when we decided to redecorate our bathroom we called Nina in. Nina did such a super job that when we decided to redecorate our living room we just could not go ahead without her expertise. On both projects we were more than pleased - she gave us two rooms beyond our wildest dreams - superb.

What benefits did Nina bring to you through the service you received from her?

Nina put the schemes together for us from start to finish. She introduced ideas we would never have thought of and she worked with our likes and dislikes.

Why could nobody else do the same for you as Nina did?

Nina gives you all the time you need to make up your mind and she doesn’t mind some chopping and changing. I have no hesitation in recommending her as we were and still are more than pleased with our new look.

Nina brings balance and harmony to a project and is extremely sensitive to the needs of her client.

What benefits did Nina bring to you through the service you received from her?

Nina was totally focussed on the need to prepare our house for sale. The first lady through the door bought it immediately she viewed it.

Why could nobody else do the same for you as Nina did?

Nina brought such professionalism, dedication, talent and sensitivity to the project. Her application of relevant interior design and feng shui principles was outstanding. Only Nina could have a vision of the final result and have transformed a cluttered 35 year old bungalow into an amazing home which we were very reluctant to part with after her extremely efficient guidance.

Riona G (Tipperary & Galway)

Why did you choose to book Nina from Working Wonders?

Nina was recommended to us by a friend in an arts centre in South Tipperary who said she was a really lovely lady! We had some previous experience of Feng Shui and felt it would be good to have someone to help us from the very beginning before we even started the building of our house. We are so glad to have had Nina from day one to help us in the design itself and the interior décor including soft furnishings, paint colours and lighting.

What benefits did Nina bring to you through the service you received from her?

She offered fantastic information that really helped us create a relaxing, functional and beautiful home. Through her service we saved money, time and unnecessary design and selection mistakes. She is confident and good humoured, and her service is professional and incorporates practical aspects too.

Why could nobody else do the same for you as Nina did?

Her warmth, friendliness and honesty are all part of her desire to do her very best for us. She has skills and knowledge in so many areas, from Feng Shui to interior design, to all aspects of health. She is also extremely intuitive and respectful of people. She is not pushy and is very understanding of human nature. Also, her practicality is invaluable.

Maggie & Paul M (Tipperary)

Why did you choose to book Nina from Working Wonders?

I had attended Nina’s interior design classes and was most impressed with examples of her previous work. I also felt that Nina had an innate ability to understand what I required and desired, and to incorporate both into a unique design.

Working with Nina was a very relaxing experience. I also felt that she was open to individual input from the household, and dealt with any changes quickly and effectively.

Why could nobody else do the same for you as Nina did?

I could not have expected anyone to formulate a design as appealing to the eye or as unique as Nina achieved. I would also like to highlight the amount of time Nina spent outside of office hours to ensure that the design was executed with precision by all contractors on time.

Joan H (Tipperary)

Why did you choose to book Nina from Working Wonders?

I saw her web site on the internet.

What benefits did Nina bring to you through the service you received from her?

Nina was excellent in recommending colour schemes to fit in with the existing building and with the local environment. However, what I found most helpful was her ability to suggest and recommend styles and products which are unlikely to go out of date.

Why could nobody else do the same for you as Nina did?

Nina can offer an ‘all inclusive’ service right through from design stage to placing furniture. She strongly believes in getting the best value for money for her clients and insists on top class workmanship. She has experience and knowledge of all aspects of building and in fact I would be very confident in having Nina supervise and design a project from beginning to end.

Breeda R (Tipperary)

I had been to a workshop that Nina gave and found it very interesting, and I was very interested in using the principles of feng shui in our home and as we were building onto our home it seemed like the perfect time to start.

What benefits did Nina bring to you through the service you received from her?

We had plans drawn up for the extension on our home by an architect. We showed the plans to Nina and she pointed out some different ideas and changes that we made to the plans. Looking back we are so glad we made these changes. Also, she planned out the rooms on paper and it has all worked out so well. Her ideas on the layout of the room made the flow in the room very easy.

Why could nobody else do the same for you as Nina did?

We had two different architects draw up plans for us before but they never went into the detail that Nina did with us. She gave us great advice, right down to appliances and where to get them. She understood our needs more than anyone we had spoken to before and was able to transfer our ideas onto paper.

Trish & Joe B (Tipperary)

Why did you choose to book Nina from Working Wonders?

I did her interior design course and loved it! I was convinced that good interior design at the start was a means of not making mistakes that proved costly with the interior design of my own first house. In classes, Nina showed passion for interior design and I could see that she was going to do a good job. I could see after the classes finished that it was going to be a worthwhile expenditure on design services to help me with my new build.

What benefits did Nina bring to you through the service you received from her?

I received good training on the interior design course, and regarding design services I trusted Nina as she understood my needs/use of space very well. I felt I could leave it all to her! Nina took account of my budget, tastes and needs. She is a very professional lady. Her price was reasonable and I was easily able to see how this paid off in getting my house designed. I’ve very few regrets thanks to good planning.

Why could nobody else do the same for you as Nina did?

In terms of appointments Nina was flexible to suit my needs regarding work/family. She was willing to make site visits en route to other appointments. She gave me plenty of tips and didn’t waste time and equipped me with ideas. I also enjoyed our shopping trip.

It is obvious that Nina puts her heart and soul into her work - you know that she is very focussed on your issues. In my case some of the important things she said would happen actually happened!

I read about feng shui and knew the key components for successful feng shui are balance and harmony. I looked up the Golden Pages and found Working Wonders feng shui consultants.

What benefits did Nina bring to you through the service you received from her?

Nina helped to bring more balance and harmony to the home through the family’s best directions, elements, Chinese animal signs and weakest organs. We discussed this and then rearranged furniture, reviewed colour schemes and changed the front door to the house.

Nina was the only feng shui consultant and I am glad I found her. She understands what I want, she listens, and I feel very comfortable in her company. Well done Nina from Working Wonders!

Having only met Nina for the first time on the day I was so touched by her kindness and empathy. She took a holistic approach to our home and if I won the lotto tomorrow I’d hire her for a month!! She is well worth the investment.
