Kate: I don't think I took any photos of my first 4 or 5 staging jobs. I was so excited, I forgot! That was before I discovered Active Rain, blogging or ever dreamed of having a web site. Here is a photo from the first vacant staging job I did using rental furniture.This was about 4 years ago. Living room after staging by Moving Mountains Deisgn

Here's the first occupied home we staged. We did it free for some friends who were moving, to build our portfolio. The camera we used for the befores was a little one whose battery was getting tired, so the before of the living room was too blurry to use, so the only picture we have of this room is a corner. You can see it in the right of the after shot.

This is our first vacant staging. It was a tiny (960 sq ft) home - really a perfect first vacant.

Fun, fun, fun! Here's my 1st Owner Occupied. He told us before we started that he was giving all his old furniture to his gardener. SO we brought in rental furniture even though he was still living there.

Here's my 1st vacant, which actually included a LOT of paint and new carpeting:

Hey all thanks for sharing!

Laurie, it looks really great. You must have been exhausted from moving all the furntiure. The vacant is really warm and inviting.

Kathy, I love that butcher block cart! I needed one last week.

Connie- those rooms look great!

Michele- this is gorgeous! I am so impressed that you did a Parade of Homes for one of your first jobs. I would have been terrified!
