I think we are all DIY enthusiasts at heart. Hope you enjoy it. During the holidays, if you are the type who loves to entertain, ser...

I wrote this post for my Interior Design blog, and it was meant to inspire my clients to collect art to live with. But in the staging world, we are always looking for art that will appeal to the broadest possible audience. Even though buying original art is pretty much out of the question in a st...

I just wanted to share a before and after of a client's home to show how much just two changes - a fresh coat of paint and a new door - can make.

  Although I am looking at a bright blue, sunny sky as I write this … I am eyeing the rapidly rising pile of leaves on my deck that tell me gray skies and cooler weather are coming up fast. Brrrrrr! Soon we will be looking for ways to be warmer. Lighting the fireplace is the first thing that pop...
