Here is a job I just finished. It was a really cute condo, minus the green carpet.   The fresh coat of paint sure helps. The walls were originally a yellow colour. This space feels warm amd cozy now.   Here is the view of the kitchen from the living room. Using the red allows your eye to be drawn...

This was a lived in house. Only certain rooms were used by the client and many needed furniture and accessories. Rooms that were used by client were only lightly staged to keep it easy to maintain. Living Room- Before Living Room - Afters   Dining Room- Before   Dining Room -After   Bathroom Bath...

I have recently had to purchase new sheets. I went into our local bed and bath store. I found a gorgeous set of chocolate and blue sheets. I caved and bought them they are 360 thread count Egyptian cotton. Now with the super fluffy duvet, water pillows, a special foam thingy for on top of the mat...

Here are some after shots of a job I have just finished. My clients are mortgage brokers and they work in a house. Our foyer is very bold. We used a rich brown colour for the walls in this area. What I absolutely love about this area is the contras of black, brown, white and cream. It is so drama...

I am off to the Labour Day game this afternoon with my son. It is his first football game and he is soooo excited. It is the last day of summer holidays and one of the few days where I didn't have to wake him up to get him up and going for the day. My daughter is off with daddy to go fishing toda...

Of course, this would all happen when I am super busy in my personal life. Here's a photo to show you what I get to look forward to this week. Please note that this is one corner of the room and it was ta...

Whew! What a day!! I started de-staging a house that sold!! YAY!! I had spent yesterday organizing my storage space and after bringing in only half of the accessories in from the de-staging I am feeling like yesterday's work was in vain!!! Am I going to fit it all in?? Tomorrow I am off to finish...

I went shopping for one of my clients today. I was on the hunt for curtain rods. I think that there must be some evil plot devised by the manufacturers of curtain rods. I am sure that they must hold meetings where they drink coffee and eat pastries while scheming up ways to drive consumers crazy!...

Things don't seem to be moving too quickly lately. It is so frustrating to see so many listings that have been on the market for so long. I just want to reiterate that staging helps houses to sell faster and for more money. It is a fact!! I can't stress the importance of ensuring that your house ...

What a nice relaxing weekend!! We went up to Sylvan Lake and visited my grandma. We attempted to find some special creek that is a part of Buffalo lake. We drove for 2 hours, got lost. When we finally found a fishing area it was too small for the four of us to fish together. Not to mention it was...
