Staging begins in anyone's home...

I mentioned below that I helped my friend Donna Walker arrange her living room last weekend. Donna has beautiful furnishings. We simply moved items around, arranging the furniture to to better suit her family's needs. The focal point is the fireplace and the beautiful TV hutch. We de-cluttered areas, specifically the fireplace mantel and built-in book case. We removed several family photos then placed her favorite pieces from other rooms on the book case. We took a beautiful copper piece her husband likes from the floor, and simply placed it on the mantel.

Donna wanted to add some color, so we bought some very inexpensive RED throw pillows for the sofa that match a coordinating RED candle stand she already had. This added the color she wanted and pulled the look together. She added a nice variegated plant and platter atop the TV hutch. Now, her living room has an open, inviting and more balanced look. See what Staging your own home can do!?! Call me to help!

A picture is worth a thousand...dollars!

OK maybe not always, but in my line of work, pictures are a must. I take them to show sellers and Realtors what Staging Homes can do. Here are some pictures I took of homes I've recently Staged. The homes were vacant, with a moderate amount of furnishings and accents, I added coziness and made it feel more like a home!

Staging is so much fun, I absolutely love it. This past weekend, I helped a a close friend arrange some furniture in her living room. She had all the right tools to work with it just took time to create the right look. We opened up her living space, added a few pieces with colors she chose and viola! it was perfect. She loves her new living room! I can Stage for any occasion.

Hi, I'm Jennifer Taylor with Ready, Set, Sell!
located in Hoover, AL I serve Jefferson County and Metro Birmingham.

I started Staging homes; my own, my friends and families in 2007. I quit my job last June to be home with my children, and found myself a little bored. A good friend suggested that I get into this line of work to fill the void with my creativity. It has a name, it's called "Staging". The credit goes to Barb Shwarz who coined the phrase. She has a thriving business of books, information and ASP (Accredited Staging Professional) programs. Barb is pretty awesome, I couldn't be more thankful for reading her books, helping me cultivate a passion for what I do and to get my business under way. See www.stagedhomes.com.


What is Staging?

Staging is NOT decorating. Staging is the prep work for a home before it goes on the market. It's placement of furnishes and accessories, color schemes much, much more. It's depoersonalizing a home, removoing personal pictures and collectables, etc. It's getting your home ready to appeal to the masses! And I love doing it.
