- Staged Properties typically sell for More Money
U.S. Housing and Urban Development reports that staged homes sell an average of 17% more than homes not staged.

- Staged Homes sell faster. MSNBC reported un-staged homes listed for sale spent an average 4.5 months on the market, while at the same time homes staged before listing spent fewer than 1.5 months on the market.

- While there is an

investment made in home staging, there’s a great opportunity for return on the money invested. A recent HomeGain Survey of over 2000 Realtors discovered that sellers who used staging services, recovered up to 500% of the cost upon sale of their homes.

- Most Homeowners can’t see their house objectively. A staging professional can effectively position a home, or give a detailed, step by step 'Staging Plan’, for the the work to be done.

*HGTV recommends staging. In a recent HGTV program called “The 25 biggest Real Estate mistakes”, not staging a home was ranked #1.

- Fewer than 10% of home buyers can see a home’s potential. Especially in a vacant home, where staging is critical. Did you know most buyers estimate an empty home is10% smaller than it actually is? Staging can bring out a home’s potential.

- The longer a home stays on the market the lower the selling price will be. Staging means a faster sale, at a higher price, by adding perceived value.

- Selling a House ‘as is' helps sell its competition. Pretty sells. A properly staged home will meet or exceed buyers’ expectations when they walk through the door.

On this rainy morning I’m putting together September meal kits. On the menu today is Chicken and Corn Chowder using shelf stable ingredients. And I’m happy to say that we’re on track to beat the goal I set in January to provide 600 shelf stable meals this year. September’s kits will put us at 556, and there are still 3 months to go! That means we will end the year around 775!

For those who have asked me about this, here are some meal ideas. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/16wvs8qrxnRDbeK1g7jOVw01ADCAmGKYP

I know putting together 12 kits a month isn’t doable for everyone. But if you want to put even one meal kit together it can really help. The LAST thing a parent who is facing crisis wants to do, is think about what they can actually make with food bank finds. That’s feedback I’ve received over and over in response to these kits. They contain everything needed to make a warm, comforting meal.

There’s something about seeing a space come together. ✨

For this project, we brought together texture, scale, colour and thoughtful furniture placement to create a home that feels both beautiful and functional.

Every detail was chosen with the space and the buyer experience in mind. 🤍🏡

With Junk In Our Trunk – I just got recognized as one of their top fans! 🎉. This is 100% true. If you know anything about moving crews you know good movers are hard to find. I trust this team with my inventory and recommend them often. They’re the best I’ve ever worked with.

I’m a big believer in collaboration over competition.
Last week, my friend Spaces by Eva and I had the chance to work together on this beautiful property—and I was reminded just how much I love working alongside another creative person.
When you work with your own inventory every day, you start to see pieces a certain way. Then someone comes along with fresh eyes and says, “What about this over here?” or “What if we tried this?”—and suddenly you’re looking at something you’ve owned an used often completely differently.
That’s what I love about collaborating with another stager. We bounce ideas off each other, challenge each other creatively, and inevitably come away with ideas we’ll use again.
And frankly, it’s just way more fun. 😂
Together, Eva and I created a light and airy stage that complemented this home while letting that absolutely sublime view remain the star.
There’s room for all of us to learn from one another, cheer each other on and create something better together than we might have created alone.
Thanks, Eva. I loved working with you. ❤️

A look at one of our recent staging projects 🤍

For this home, the focus was on creating a space that felt warm, inviting and effortlessly cohesive, while highlighting the features that make the home special.

Thoughtful styling, intentional furniture placement and the right finishing touches can completely transform how a space is experienced. ✨🏡

POV: you finally see the home’s potential ✨

Sometimes a space just needs the right vision to bring it to life. Through intentional furniture placement, thoughtful styling, and carefully selected details, staging helps showcase what a home could become.

Because buyers don’t just see a room, they see a future. 🤍🏡
