That's quite a transformation you made on that dining room!  The course sounds great.  I'll be teaching an 8 week course at my church on decorating and staging beginning next week.  Should be fun.  Good luck with yours!

Karen, good luck with your course.  I think as time marches on we will see more and more Colleges and institutes offer Home Staging courses.  Way to be a ground breaker.....

Wow Patsy that's a long course 8 weeks! I enjoy mine very much it's 8 hours over 4 nights and it's my 6th semester teaching it.

Thank you Gary! I think it's important for the public at large who own homes to be thinking about ways to market and sell them and staging is such an important part of the process.  I look at my course more as a public information service I provide and it helps spread the message that staging works!

This is how I met Karen for the first time by driving 60 miles (one way) to attend this course! I was just getting ready to start my own business and thought it was worth checking out. It was definitely worth it and Karen is a natural teacher. Don't miss it!
