Staged or not staged?

/

Back in the day, Sister Ex and I looked at renting in this building when it was apartments. This beautiful building has always stayed with me.



 It totally looks staged but its not! This is a home that was edited, minimized, organized and designed so well by the owner that zero outside staging was needed. Such a beautiful space.





I loved the Resotoration Hardware linen shower curtain here.

Day in the Life of a Stager Girl

/
We seldom take the time to sit down and take in the beauty of the spaces we get to work in. A view of our beautiful city is one reason to chill for a moment. We may need to become friends with the new owners so that we can be invited to a fancy pants party in this fancy pants place.


 Last minute detailing is always important and Jo is a pro in the detail area.


 Ready to bring the final load to our cars. Another day at the Stager Girl "office".


Back to College

/

All the Stager girls have had to send their kids back to school this week. We celebrate our kids' choices, we struggle with their choices, we listen quietly to their dreams, we marvel at the laundry they produce, the food they consume and the additional bodies in the house. Off they go with their bad ass dreams of what they will become and the adventures they will create. 





This Middle Sister had to photograph the daughter's saving jar that is New York bound.

Stager Girl Office Inspiration

 Sister Ex and I have this table and chair in our NEW warehouse space. We are glamming it up so we have an inspiring space for our big Stager ideas!


We will add a bit of Kelly Wearstler inspiration:


As the Stager girls say "an O.S. chair" for some down time. (When that would be I know not...)

And finish with a wall of art. We are currently buried in stacks of that at the moment.
 Presto! Our office is complete. Photos to follow of the real deal Stager Girl office.

Christmas Inspiration

/

The fun thing about the Christmas season is that we get to change things up a bit. It's time to move furniture, clear off tables, add a table cloth, redo the mantle, hang a holiday picture and add sparkle here and there.







After Christmas we make our new years list of thoughts and goals, clean up the decorations, and restyle our spaces. It's nice to shake it up a bit by decluttering, editing, and cleaning. It's all good.
