Jackie Glisson

Above all, Jackie Glisson values the satisfaction of his clients. Here is what some of his clients have to say about Jackie Glisson’s interior design work.

I contracted with Jackie as a set decorator for a short film ("Presumed Dead") that I was directing and producing. I was very pleased, not only with his work, but his keen eye and ability to enhance whatever I was doing. I can highly recommend Jackie and would not hesitate to work with him again.

Jackie is a pleasure to work with, and I have always been extremely pleased with the outcome of his recommendations.

- Debbie Rosenthal
Memphis, Tennessee

Most recently Jackie helped me with the design work for a large (8,000 square foot) loft conversion (commercial warehouse to my personal residence). Bringing sense to the space; color to the walls, floors and ceilings; placement for the fixtures and furniture; and display of the art was a very daunting task, which I left to Jackie. His choices and advice were excellent, timely, and provided for good value. His network also performed a fair amount of the work, as well, to convert what had been drafty and sterile into a unique and desirable home."

Jackie Glisson is a true facilitator of both modern decorating and hus clients’ styles/preferences regardless of the venue. He’s been essential with our houses on Kiawah Island, SC,  in Memphis, and in San Francisco while maintaining the distinct feel of each location perfectly. He loves a challenge and meets it 110% each time. You are truly a professional that sets the bar high for all others to try to achieve. Can’t wait for the next project . . .

"Jackie listened to what we had to say to him as well as what we said to each other. After hearing what we wanted and what we said he put together our home just the way we wanted. It turned out better than we imagined!"

– Doug & Sue Dasse
Collierville, Tennessee

"For those looking  for a "shot in the arm" for their home,  you will find dealing with Jackie is a real treat.  His knowledge, inventiveness, and innate sense of colors and textures  is phenomenal.  I left a totally structured environment in Memphis,  and  wound up in Naples, Florida with a new life and a gorgeously decorated home; using some of my own  reupholstered pieces, and adding lots of new things,  all done on a surprisingly reasonable budget.  It has been four years now and I am about ready to tell Jackie to put me on his "to re-do" list.  You will totally enjoy the process of working with Jackie, as he works for "you" and not just for himself.  (Not  the case with many decorators!)"

- Joyce Hurley
Naples, Florida

"We have worked with Jackie on several projects and he is a pleasure to work with.  He decorated our Vesta Home show in Spring Creek Ranch and did our models at "The Edge" condos in downtown Memphis.  He is very versatile and talented and works extremely well with everyone!"

- Mike Murphy Builders & Hansom Homes, Inc.

"Friends often comment that our home is so warm and cozy and that they love coming to our house.  The fact that my home feels welcoming to others is a great compliment to our decorator. Jackie, I love my home!"

- Lynda Saenger
Germantown, Tennessee

" When we met with Jackie to discuss custom draperies for our East Memphis home, he listened… really listened.  We have traditional tastes and when he brought us fabric samples, we knew we had chosen the right designer.  Through Jackie’s interpretation, our  home is now complete with the rich fullness of the southern charm that we wanted."

- Kathy Thurmond-Edwards and David Edwards
Memphis, Tennessee

"Jackie, you did such an awesome job with our complete, whole-house make over on my home in Memphis, that there was no doubt I had to have your help when we moved to Las Vegas. The process (beginning pre-construction) from choosing flooring, counter tops, cabinets, to draperies and fabrics, to furniture and accessory shopping, to that very last picture being hung, was thoroughly enjoyable! I look forward to your help on houses to come!"

- Sue Mirman
Las Vegas, Nevada & Chicago, Illinois

"…to take 5,200 brand new square feet from totally empty to fully furnished in 4 months was an amazing feat to watch. My house was voted ‘favorite home’ by over 1,000 people attending the Southwind Home Tour this year. Thanks again for all your help!"

- Jeanne Hayes
Memphis, Tennessee & Colorado Springs, Colorado

"Eight years ago you transformed our historic house and made it our home. The interior was plain and in desperate need of updating. You brought it to life with your expertise and style and made it warm and inviting. You have also introduced us to remarkable furniture, original artwork and fine rugs. We can’t wait to see what you’re going to do to our pool house!"

- Tom & Patti Marsh

"Jackie, I can’t tell you how proud I am of your work on the wet bar. Everyone that came through the house during the holidays was just taken by the outcome!!! You did an incredible job…Thanks again!"

- Scott Neal
Memphis, Tennessee

"Jackie, I love my ‘new look’ upstairs…you can always read my mind and immediately implement my ideas. (I have great ideas but getting them into fruition is the hard part!). I love the custom-built T.V. cabinet you had made for me and I am thrilled with all the paint colors you selected. It is also wonderful to have you to call on with my real estate clients when they need help with the home they are buying…I know I can recommend you and that they will be pleased too!"

- Linda Garlin
Realtor, Memphis, Tennessee

"Dear Jackie, I can’t tell you how excited I am about my ‘new’ rooms. I can’t believe you were able to pull it all together, so efficiently and so quickly! The result has far exceeded any expectation I had. Your attention to detail, especially on the window and bed treatments, is striking; and everyone who has seen the finished product has remarked upon those clever details. It is the small finishing touches that made such an impact, and I love every one of them!"

- Vicki Rush
Memphis, Tennessee

"Why has Jackie done THREE homes for us? Simply because he listens to what we want and works around our needs and budget. Jackie can identify & explain what’s missing, what’s right and what’s not working. He can help finish any room or an entire house, no matter what the starting point. He is a color expert, part-architect, price-conscious, accessory-wise, resourceful and a pleasure to work with."

- Judy & Greg Malark
Scottsdale, Arizona

"Jackie, I’m proud to say that I was your HGTV producer who found you over the Internet. You’re a winner in my book in more ways then one. That show was such a great tribute to your talent! I will always appreciate your Southern hospitality during my trips to Memphis, and I hope our paths cross again!"

- Laura Patterson
Designers’ Challenge

"I wanted to let you know what a pleasure it was working with you on the "Richey" project. Expertise in interior design like yours has helped make "Designers’ Challenge" a great success on HGTV. Thank you so much for all your hard work and great design plans you presented; the new den turned out beautifully!"
