georgetown home staging: Georgetown Bathroom gets a Cole House Design Makeover - 10/29/09 10:35 AM
Cole House Design was called by a Halton homeowner recently, to assess what could be done to help her plain-jane taupe coloured powder room.  Living in a smaller sized house, she had little storage space on the main floor, and was hoping to remedy that by redesigning the bathroom. 
The pedestal sink in her powder room provided no storage, so we opted to change it to a wooden vanity with tons of space below the sink.  We also added a two bin slide-out garbage can/recycling centre for those pesky toilet paper rolls.  The cabinet is done in maple with a dark walnut stain … (3 comments)

georgetown home staging: Cole House Design Participates in Toronto's "Project Warmth" 2008 Holiday Campaign - 12/19/08 09:12 AM
I remember as a child, my mother used to ask us to put our outgrown clothing, books and toys into a big cardboard box just before Christmas.  She signed up for many years to help out a family in need in our community, and she always made sure that that box, was overflowing when it left our house.

Since having my own children I have tried to instill in them the same virtues about giving throughout the year.  We give food to the local Food Bank, we drop off our outgrown clothes at the Salvation Army, and we continually support all of … (0 comments)

georgetown home staging: Georgetown Bathroom Makeover by Cole House Design - 09/10/08 08:20 PM
Cole House Design, an interior redesign and home staging firm located in Halton Hills, was recently hired to redesign an ensuite bathroom for a Georgetown, Ontario client.  The small bathroom was used by both the husband and wife...it had little storage, and had been finished with the "builder basics".  
With a tight budget in mind:
we opted to keep the vanity, sink, toilet, tiled shower, and large corner soaker tub; all of which were in excellent condition the brownish-yellow walls were repainted a soft ivory  the builder-basic plastic towel bars and toilet paper holder were replaced with chrome for easy cleaning, and that added bit of sparkle the small and … (4 comments)

georgetown home staging: Cole House Design Stages A Cluttered Desk Into a Child's Craft Corner with Great Appeal - 09/06/08 02:00 PM
Cole House Design, a home staging firm located in Georgetown, Ontario recently staged a home west of Toronto, where our client had placed a sewing area for herself, in her sons' basement toyroom.  Although the placement of the desk in the room was fine, it was disorganized and cluttered, and did not really suit the real function of the room.  Cole House Design moved the sewing machine and sewing supplies into the neighbouring laundry room, and instead turned the desk into a child's art area complete with craft supplies, paper, and bulletin board. 
For little more than 20 minutes of our time switching things around, the art desk was a … (7 comments)

georgetown home staging: Curb Appeal Recommendations in Halton - Call Cole House Design today! - 03/31/08 04:47 PM
Cole House Design was just reading Pam Faulkner's blog: "Does the Addams Family Live Next Door to Your Staged Home?".  It made me laugh and reminded me of this home:

This photo was taken at the end of March, and yes that's a Christmas tree sitting haphazardly in the urn.  Christmas lights are still strung around the tree and the front of the house.  Newspapers are piled up on the front porch.  The driveway has a huge pothole in it.  The garage doors have paint peeling off of them. 
This home obviously has NO curb appeal, and this is how you DON'T want your house to look … (3 comments)

Hi everyone! 
My name is Nicole Hurst, and I own a home staging and interior redesign company called Cole House Design in beautiful Georgetown, Ontario.  Mind you I use the term "beautiful" very loosely right now as we are currently in the middle of a snowstorm and it is -6 degrees celsius outside.  I think that groundhog was mistaken when he said Spring was on the way - LOL! 
I have read many of the blogs about home staging and the real estate world in general over my first couple of weeks here on AR, and I have to say I have already gained … (28 comments)
