home stager in oregon: Want a Great First Impression? Give Your Sofa some VaVoom! - 09/26/10 03:56 AM
At our warehouse, we have a wall of pillows  — sorted usually by color and crammed into our racking by our skilled associate, Judy Klassen.  Judy is organizer extraordinnaire and I would post a photo, but I made a mess of them yesterday pulling inventory for a job and she would not be happy to have you see it!
