Melody Salazar, owner of Salazar Custom Interiors, offers floor to ceiling interior design services, as well as real estate staging for both vacant and occupied homes.  She provides services from the Canyon Lake area to New Braunfels and San Antonio, and all surrounding areas working with real estate agents and homeowners to produce great changes for living and profitable results with staging.  Her staged homes sell twice as fast as un-staged ones. Melody's training began in the early 90's when she received certification in Residential Design at the University of St. Mary's in San Antonio. When redesign and staging began sweeping the country and statistics showed what an amazing selling tool staging was for real estate agents and homeowners, she received specialized training in this very specific design technique. She received IRIS (Interior Redesign Industry Specialists) certification in this field by studying under Sandy Dixon in Colorado http://www.interiorarrangements.com/ Melody’s philosophy on interior decorating has always been geared towards ways of obtaining a warm, luxurious and inviting environment, which truly reflect the owners' personalities.  “It is not necessary to invest a fortune to have a unique home that says WOW in each room.  This should not be and is not, beyond anyone’s reach”.  My specialties include all aspects of interior design; including complete custom transformations to budget minded re-design, working with what you currently own. No job is too big or too small. HERE'S WHAT ONE HAPPY CUSTOMER HAD TO SAY 08/29/2011 PATRICIA FOX, SEGUIN I love this designer! She took 5 okay rooms in my home and totally transformed them. They are beautiful. My family and friends have all been amazed. Melody is very professional, yet working with her was fun and easy. I first contacted her via e mail after looking at her website. Almost immediately, she responded and soon I had an appointment and soon after that a design plan. The best part was she listened to me and what I wanted for my rooms. She led me through the design process helping me choose the right wall colors (which by trhe way are gorgeous), an area rug, window treatments, new tiles for my fireplace, artwork, and a few furniture pieces. Then we chose accent colors and she was off and running ordering and shopping all the time keeping me informed and sending me pics via e mail. When everything had been tiled, painted, delivered, and purchased, she was ready to put everything together. In a few hours, it was time for the Big Reveal (just like HGTV) and the results were AMAZING. My husband and I love our new rooms. The bottom line: Would I recommend this designer YES! Would I use her again- Definitely YES. Thank you, Melody for a job well done! I am so happy to have found you.
