feng shui: Arcadia Peacocks Are Good Feng Shui
- 04/21/10 03:43 AM
Last week, I was asked to do a home staging bid on a home in Arcadia, CA, that was located in an area of Arcadia known for its free roaming peacocks, near the LA County Arboretum. I stage many homes in Arcadia and am often asked about feng shui and peacocks. The peacock is the official city bird of Arcadia and a picure of a peacock is displayed on street signs and the official city seal.
It's not unusual to see peacocks and peahens grazing in front yards and wandering the streets of Arcadia, particularly near the LA … (14 comments)

How to Stage a Home Office (good Feng Shui, too) Moving Mountains Design recently staged a home that had a dedicated home office. Here is the "before" picture.
As you can see, there are piles of papers yelling "Pay attention to me" and "Look at all the work you have to do before you can relax".

One of my favorite rooms to stage is the bedroom. I think it does a lot to make a home feel more comfortable and inviting if the bed in the master bedroom makes feel like you are in a luxury hotel. I always use high thread count sheets (since I stage mostly vacants, they never get used) and always, always, always use sateen (not to be confused with satin sheets which I would never use). The slight sheen gives a really rich look. I also like to use a lot of throw pillows (usually silk) to add an accent color. I have started … (46 comments)
