Room by Room

Vicki was a pleasure to deal with. Nothing was too much trouble. She is very knowledgeable and helpful. Her advice on type of window coverings, fabric and colour proved to be correct and I am very happy with the result.

We were so happy to have found Vicki at Room by Room, and her level of professionalism and knowledge made us feel we were in good hands. And we were! We not only appreciated her advice for drapes on previously bare windows, but Vicki has also been able to help us amend window coverings in two other rooms with different sets of problems, working along with what is already in place to give much better results. The curtains and blind were measured and competitively quoted with a minimum of fuss and arrived much quicker than other places I had dealt with. We are so happy with the results. Vicki also gave us tips on how to improve existing things like furniture and print placements in our home, explaining the reasoning behind her ideas. Her suggestions made a world of difference! We could hardly believe how such small tweaks had such a big visual impact. It is no surprise that we cannot recommend Vicki highly enough.

Room by Room a well established design group was really responsive to our request for curtains & blinds in our Pod. Vicki arrived with samples and ideas that we hadn't considered. Quality materials were used and the fit out was efficient and respectful. From idea to completion the job was done in a way that was collaborative and timeframes were very reasonable.

I recently engaged Vicki Burns from Room by Room to provide advice on both window and interior furnishings for our newly renovated 1930’s apartment. I was so impressed with her enthusiasm and innovative ideas for our home, she understood instinctively my taste and I loved every suggestion. The finished product is beautiful and I’m loving the comments from everyone who visits. Thank you Vicki for a stunning job and I loved working with you. Helen Witchell Ivanhoe

From beginning to end, Vicki has been a delight to work with. As first time renovators, she was patient and helpful not only with our window furnishings but also provided helpful design advice with other elements of our renovations. The sheers and blinds we ordered through Room by Room are the ‘wow factor’ of our living room and are the perfect finishing touch. Highly recommend Vicki for any project for a high quality and cohesive finish to your home. Will definitely use her for any future projects!

Vicki is wonderful. She is such a helpful, patient and generous person and will brighten up your day. Everything I have planned and ordered with Vicki has been perfect. Can’t recommend her highly enough.

Vicky was very easy to communicate with and reliable. We left it to Vicky to chose our sheer curtains in living area, master bedroom and blinds and curtains in the retreat and she nailed it!! Really happy with the colour, fabric, hanging style etc. The process was efficient and stress free. I did not bother with getting any other quotes because I know Vicky is a lovely and very honest person and wants the best for her customer. Room by Room in Ivanhoe in the showroom. Very happy indeed. Thank you

It was such a pleasure to work with Vicki on curtains and blinds for our bedrooms. Vicki really listened to what I wanted and I am so delighted with the results. I will be contacting Vicki again when curtains and blinds are needed.

We are so pleased with the bench seat cushions organised by Vicki from Room by Room. Vicki visited our new home bringing a range of sample fabrics. She advised for each of the three areas the choice of fabric, cushion type and thickness, and then undertook the measurements. Only a few weeks later Vicki delivered them to our home bringing a selection of cushions and throws to help style our new bench seats. I was particularly pleased in the way Vicki advised on the use and placement of our own existing cushions and throws, although I couldn’t help but purchase another one from her. Everything was reasonably priced, easy and efficient. Vicki shared some styling tips along with way, and has also helped us find a coffee table that has fitted perfectly in a rather electric library sitting room. I would highly recommend Room by Room and will certainly not hesitate to use Vicki’s services again.

Vicki has provided blinds and curtains for me on two properties over the past 12 months. Her experience and professionalism was invaluable as I was setting up my home. She took time to understand my needs, was available on the phone to answer questions and the follow-up and attention to detail was excellent. Her personal warmth and enthusiasm held me through a stressful renovating process through several Covid lockdowns and her generosity in terms of giving me all sorts of home decorating tips and guidance (when asked) was much appreciated. The final products were superb and drew many compliments from friends and family, who were often astounded that blinds and curtains could make such a difference to the overall "feel" and appeal of the home. I would have no hesitation in highly recommending Vicki and her service.

Vicki is full of ideas and solutions…and always available to help out and listen to your needs. Vicki is my go to!

I couldn’t speak more highly of the service and quality of product I received from Vicki at room by room. I live locally so had seen her store and just have Vicki a call one day. I was in need of advice of window coverings for a number of rooms in a federation style house with a modern extension. Vicki arrived with samples and ideas! The best part about the process was that Vicki took care of everything after we had agreed on the various curtains, shutter styles and accessories. Vicki even organised upholstery window seats and matching cushions. I thought the prices were all very reasonable and the finished product couldn’t be more stunning. I am busy with a full time job and 3 kids and Vicki just made this hassle free at a great price.

From the very first meeting with Vicki until our last correspondance, my experience with Room by Room and everyone associated with the advice and fittings was exceptional. Vicki's advice on colours and style helped me enormously and made my decision making as easy as possible. Everything was done on time and it didn't cost the earth either! Our home has added value thanks to the new window furnishings and I would highly recommend Room by Room to anyone wanting to have an amazing experience.

Vicki did a house for me last year and I was really happy with all the curtain and blinds. Hence I gave her my new home to furnish. She helped me all the way from fabric selection, color., size to finding the most economical way to custom made some blinds. She also organsie a custom made bedhead and she went out of her way to get the crystal buttons for me. She is an absolute gem and I dont know what I would have done without her.

I love this shop. I always receive fantastic & honest advice from Vicki. Room by Room offers a great range of beautiful fabrics and soft furnishings that are of high quality & that are also affordable. Great service always delivered with a smile.

We are doing renovation and modernization of our home. When it comes to the part of interior designing, as many people might know, it’s a big headache. However, with the help of vicki and roombyroom, it became an easy and pleasant experience. Vicki helped us choose the fabrics and color of curtains, blinds and shutters for our home which give a lovely effect to our house. In the day time, the light comes in through the blinds and we can see the green color from our the plants outside and the outline of garden, without compromising the privacy. In this way, we can make good use of our garden view. Also, the curtain and blinds add softness to our living area. Besides, as for the furnitures, Vicki helped us pick couches, armchairs, rugs and coffee tables in our living room. The colours look calm and harmonious together and the green velvet armchairs bring in the green color from the garden. All of these create a relaxing and peaceful space in our home in a theme or style of nature and garden. Now we are moving on to getting wine cabinets, wall papers and adding other decorative items to our home with Vicki‘s help. We are looking forward to seeing the cushions from roomnyroom and the effect they give to our rooms. To people who think about renovating homes like us, it’s hard to find a professional who has great ideas for our homes and listen and understand what we really want, and more importantly, is capable of reconciling the differences and make it work. And Vicki is really that kind of professional. She’s full of great ideas and a good listener. So I highly recommend Vicki’s professional service and generous advice.

We recently asked Vicki from Room by Room to advise us on furnishings for our new townhouse. She spent considerable time with us in our home discussing the variety of ways to use our current furnishings and what additional items would give us the comfort and desired look we were hoping to achieve. Vicki organised curtains to be made and installed. We absolutely love what she suggested and the finished product exceeds expectations, along with the installer Vicki assured us would do a professional job. He certainly did! We are so happy we engaged Room by Room to assist us.

We are very satisfied with our curtain and blinds. Vicki was quite particular and had the expertise and experience to ensure our curtains and blinds were entirely appropriate for the modernization we had done to a period home.

I highly recommend the team at Room by Room. They were very professional and nurturing when it came to decision making for plantation shutters and s-/wave fold curtains in my home. Vicki is experienced and was easily able to translate my thoughts into styles and designs that I loved and I’m thrilled with the end result! Installation times quoted were accurate and actual installation was clean and efficient! For a local business, Room by Room is comparable on price, if not cheaper than the big guys! The shop window is always inviting but what really wins for me is the level of customer care and service you receive from Vicki and the team. Nothing is ever an issue and they truly live by the motto “Customer is King” or Queen in my case :)

I am in the process of getting new curtains and blinds for my house following renovation and have the services of Room by Room for this. We are about 2/3 of the way through and it has been a very pleasant experience. Vicki is very friendly and helpful and very professional. She helped us choose the style and fabric of the curtains for each room in a straightforward manner, both giving us options and at the same time getting the process moving quickly. I have also been very happy with the cost of the project so far.

Dear Vicki, Thank-you for your expertise & great advise! We are notoriously indecisive and your assistance made it easier! The S wave sheets look Devine & add a beautiful softness to the living area

We downsized and bought a house that needed an update. I wanted a fresh contemporary look but still had furniture from our other house and did not have a clear vision. I did not want to make expensive mistakes so I got Vicki from Room by Room to help me with the project. Vicki assessed the house, how we live and my furniture. She listened to my ideas and steered me in the right direction. We decided that my decorating style was a calming natural look with texture and pattern. I created a mood board and Vicki sourced wallpaper, rugs, fabrics for curtains, cushions, and upholstery. We moved some of the furniture around into different positions and I had the couch in the reception room reupholstered in a gorgeous linen fabric from Warwick. Vicki had cushions made to tie the couch in with another armchair I already had. They were beautifully made with lovely piping. We are now moving on to the lounge room and I am looking forward to getting the curtains made. I highly recommend Vicki's professional service and generous advice. She has the ability to present you with options that you would never have thought of that really work within your budget. I now have the confidence to create a lovely new home.

Vicki is a true professional with abundant knowledge of her products and services. I have found her an absolute delight to work with. She provides great suggestions, value for money and all with a huge smile. A1 all round performer in my opinion.

Vicki has helped me with several decorating projects, each time proving to be efficient, knowledgeable and with a great understanding of the look I wanted to achieve. She has a wide network of suppliers and has sourced items that I've had trouble finding myself. I'm happy to recommend Vicki, with her easy-going expertise she is great to work with.

Vicki at Room by Room has helped us decorate two homes in Ivanhoe. We needed assistance with colours & designs which maximized our living areas. Vicki was able to supply blinds, help suggest layput & colour. Choose rugs & furniture both times. We would like to recommend Room by Room for others who purchase or renovate their home.

We have had a combination of drapes, blinds and plantation shutters installed in our new home. The service and advice in choosing from an endless range of materials and products was excellent. We would have no hesitation in recommending Room By room for all types of window treatments.

Vicki was amazing at so quickly identifying my style and then working with me to achieve what I wanted within my budget. I am loving the result 12 months on.

Vicki is a wonderful creative interior designer whose diverse and adaptable style has enabled us to decorate our house into a home we are delighted with. Her work is exceptional, with a beautiful style that has reflected both mine and my husbands preferences. Vicki has taken the time to understand our preferences and always offered us options to suit our family needs and our budget. She is very professional and always honest with regarding timelines for each project we undertook. At times I had no idea what I wanted however, Vicki always come up with the most beautiful options for us to consider. We would not have the confidence or knowledge to achieve the results that we did in creating a beautiful warm and unique home interior without Vicki's assistance. She is a delight to work with and we couldn't recommend her more highly. Thank you Vicki.

Vicki is absolutely brilliant a true professional, we have use Room by Room twice, once at our home with blinds throughout and again at work with more blinds.

I am an interior designer and Vicki has managed all my curtain and blind installations for over 8 years. Each time she is thorough and courteous and provides valuable feedback on some of the window solutions. Her service offering is second to none and it is for this reason i will continue to use Vicki for many more years to come.
