Oh My Gosh -- A Primetime Show that Has "Stage" in the Title

By
Home Stager with Home Staging by Amie

How cool is that? 

My husband and I had been anxiously awaiting the show since it was announced several weeks ago.

I really did enjoy the show and even though the property was huge so the job was huge -- I could certainly relate.  It felt so awesome to be watching someone on prime time t.v. do what I do minus the drama.

So many people watch HGTV -- I think it will definately  help people to understand the staging concept better.  I do have one concern though.  I hope that potential clients watching the show won't think that only multi-million dollar properties need to be staged or that the "typical" staging job will cost $40,000 like  the one on last night's episode did.  Seriously, I once had a potential client tell me she didn't have $2,000 to spend on staging her home.  I asked "why do you think it will cost $2,000?"  She said "well -- that's what it costs on Designed to Sell."  Go figure.

On another note -- I am happy to be blogging again.  I've missed reading posts and comments from all of the people I feel I've come to now on AR.   My schedule has been extremely hectic but there is more to it - I had to get back to blogging -- my husband has been named the President of a newly created Blogging Association.

I am assuming you are talking about The Stagers?  It is filmed here in Vancouver, which is neat for us stagers in this city.  I am going to watch it tonight for the first time but I haven't heard a lot of good so far.  I'll let you know.
