house stagging in atlanta: The Challenges in Selling a Home That Is Vacant
- 03/17/12 11:41 PM
The Challenges in Selling a Home That Is Vacant: The online photos of the home can be boring. Four walls, floor, ceiling and windows are the norm in all homes. Potential buyers typically spend less time in the home. They lack warmth and can appear less inviting. Most sellers understand this challenge as I get several calls from homeowners telling me that they're moving and want to know if I can assist in telling them what rooms should they keep furnished and/or what pieces should stay. We also receive requests to stage their entire home or if we could do "key … (15 comments)
house stagging in atlanta: How I Measure My Success
- 03/05/12 10:29 PM
I had an interesting conversation the other day with another home stager on the west coast. We were discussing Facebook, and more specifically, how I didn't have a clue on how many likes I had. I also don't know how many followers I have on Twitter. Or, how many people I have in my circles in Google +. Trust me, I understand the value of social media. I just don't measure my success based on my popularity. Instead, I measure my success on how quickly I can help a seller get a contract on their home. As a result, I focus … (16 comments)

Home Staging Kitchens - Before and After Pictures I don't know what it is about kitchens that I love so much. But... give me a kitchen to home stage and I'm one happy camper.

We staged the last set of before and after pictures on Thursday. On Friday, we staged two (top two before and after pictures). More on that subject in a different post. From cookbooks to greenery to canisters, we bring it in. And, as any professional home … (33 comments)
house stagging in atlanta: Tips to Help Make Small Spaces Look Bigger
- 03/24/10 01:00 AM
Tips on Making Small Spaces Appear Bigger The other day, while watching HGTV, they ran a commercial called Smart Tips by Christopher Lowell (sponsored by KMart). This particular tip was so useful that I took the steps to rewind and captured every word spoken. Before sharing his tip on making small spaces appear bigger, I just have to say that he is (and has been) one of my most favorite interior decorators. When he had his show called Christopher Lowell, I tried to watch every episode. If he came on and I happened to be out of the room, my husband … (20 comments)
One of the greatest compliments we receive at Home Staging Atlanta - Georgia Interior Solutions is in regards to our photos. It pleases me to no end as I spend an incredible amount of time at the end of the home staging project to capture as many photos as I can. When I return to the office, I'm as anxious to send them to the homeowner as they are to receive them. And like many professional photographers (no, I'm not a professional photographer but do use similar practices), the photos will go … (18 comments)
