If you follow my AR blog, you'll know that I've done several "staging" jobs for American Communities, a developer of low income housing in Los Angeles. If you read my posts about Staging 1Staging 2 and Staging 3, you will remember that our goal was to make the common spaces in these buildings warm and inviting, as well as functional for the residents to relax, watch TV, attend meetings & classes and use a computer.

We recently completed Staging #4 for American Communities. Like the previous building, this one was designed in a contemporary Art Deco style, so we chose furnishings and art that fit with this theme. But at Stage to Sell, we always have to try something new! So this time we added a graphic element to the walls with vinyl decals. Though these gave us the fun design element we were looking for, their large size made them a bit  difficult to install (more on that in a separate post).

I got the idea for the wall decals from Terri Lucas' post on a Home Staging Solution for Curved Walls. Great idea Terri!

Love the wall decals too.  Everytime I see the word Ardmore, it reminds me of where I grew up for some of my younger days.  Ardmore, OK, a small town in between Dallas and OKC.  Having lived in Galveston, you probably know where that is!

Sheila, Terri is great and I am so glad I had read her post before I got this job! The power of AR!

Cindy, sadly I don't know where Ardmore, TX is. I am awful with Texas geography because when I was growing up we went mainly to Houston, Austin or San Antonio and hardly anywhere else!

I LOVE what you did here, Annie, and I'll have to email you picks of the decals from this company that I used - thanks to you & Terri ;).  I just can't post the picks publicly because they are lyrics to a song - but YOU should me what could be done and I love it!  Thank you

What a great alternative to standard pictures!  I love the decals and the way you used it here makes a great statement.  However, your comment about being a bit difficult to install worries me.  But I still love them.  Very nice!

Connie, can't wait to see your photos! I bet it turned out great. Must have been incredibly tough to install if they were all different sizes like we discussed.

Emma, thank you! It was difficult mainly because of the size of the decals. Smaller ones were ok. The large ones and ones with a lot of small details were tough.
