Introduction

My work stands out because I am professionally trained and I have an artistic eye. Some designers and stagers are "placers" - they buy stuff and place it in a room. I create atmosphere first - so your furniture and other items magically look more beautiful (so...less costly). I provide the missing ingredients rather than add more. The creative aspect of it. I love going to a client's home and in a few hours or so, I can make the room look totally different. I love the challenge of making a non-working room...work. Whether a client is selling a home or staying, the joy they experience after seeing the transformation of some problem rooms - is overwhelming gratifying to me!

Linda provided beautiful staging for my mother's home in Lynbook, NY. When she first viewed the house in the summer of 2013 (following my mother's death) it contained all of my mother's old and rather dated furniture. Linda was anticipating using some of that as part of the staging but repairs to the house required removal of everything. Linda was not dismayed by this change when we contacted her again in the early spring of this year and immediately formulated a new, stylish and very comprehensive plan. Linda gave careful thought to bringing out the best features of the house while not overwhelming it with furniture and design. She provided us with many helpful suggestions such as paint colors, floor covering and lighting. She consistently returned phone calls, emails or texts in a timely way and was always on time for appointments. She did a simply fabulous job of decorating the house. Numerous agents who visited during a Broker's Open House commented very positively about what she had done and my sisters and I were all extremely pleased. One of the most wonderful things about Linda is her sensitivity. She understood how difficult it was for me to go through the process of preparing my mother's house for sale and was extremely kind and supportive, sometimes sharing some of her own experiences having gone through this herself. Conversations with her always left me feeling much better and more able to go forward. I can't think of anything that could have improved my experience working with Linda. It was entirely positive and I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Linda staged a very small waterfront bungalow that is a very difficult sale. The house went from looking like one large cold room to a warm, cozy waterfront getaway. The furniture and accessories were absolutely perfect. From the time Linda received the go ahead the house was fully staged and ready within 3 days.

In 2000. I was burned out from running a conference company and I so needed to do something very creative. I needed this business to feed my soul
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Look at the images of my work, the quality of what I talk about in my blogposts - and the advice I give on my Facebook pages. You will learn a lot about me and how I can help you.
What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
That it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. You can hire a designer or color expert to help you update your interior on a consulting basis...and you can dictate a budget. The other thing is...not all designers are created equal.
