Encino Home Staging: More Luxury Estate Photos

Terri: Sorry, no monogrammed maid's bucket. There were just too many photos of too many rooms, so I chose my favorites. Thank you again for all your help. The master bath and suite looks marvelous.

Carole: The tapestry is a high quality reproduction of a French antique. It has a very mascqueline/world explorer theme, so I thought it worked well for a Gentleman's Den. Thanks for stopping by and your comments.

Hi Kathy: This was one of those projects that came together quickly (I had 1 full day to prep it after getting the deposit check and signed contract - and I don't start prepping anything until I have both of those) and just flowed. The chairs are new from Brook! Thanks for your kind comment.

BTW: Those are all photos taken with that wide angle lens with no flash and not tripod.

Kathy: I was at a loss for what to put on the mantle. Any mirrors or paintings I had were too wide as the fireplace gets quite narrow abot 24" above the mantle. Initially, I didn't put anything there except the topiaries, but it didn't look right. So, I went shopping, and when I saw this piece I knew it would be perfect. I love the topiaries on the fireplace mantle. I wish I could find more! Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

Kimo: I always love your comments. They are always very thoughtful (full of thought as well as kind). The tapestry is supplied by my Persian rug dealer. I don't often get to use that one since it is so masculine. The problem is that my clients keep buying their tapestries and their stock is depleted.

Thank you Patti: The sculpture on the mantle was a last minute score. I didn't see it in the store the week before, but it was exactly what I was looking for.

David: I wish you could too (as do all of my TX stager buddies). Have you thought of offering your home sellers a professional staging consultation? It would set you apart from other agents in your area, get you more listings and make it easier to sell those listings. If you would like a referral to a stager in your area that you could team up with, let me know.

Kristina: Thank you so much. I'm glad you like it.

Jessica: Yes, the sink was distressed copper. The builder did a great job picking the finishes. Every counter top, tile, faucet and cabinet was nicer than the last. It was a pleasure to work in that house. Thanks.

Thank you very much, Michelle. Thanks for commenting.

Thank you so much, Sharon. It is going in my portfolio as soon as I can have the prints done.
