Staging Bellevue

/

These Stager girls actually worked in shifts on Saturday to finish this job. We had to load in without heat. The inside of the house was in the 40 degrees range. You could see our breath as we miserably worked away. Finally too cold to be creative we had to abort mission until the heat was repaired. That led us to the Saturday. Our Stager Girls are a motivated bunch and pushed these Sisters to finish on a Saturday. Love the results and I love our Stager Girls.

Back and Ready to Roll

/

Nothing like a room filled with 450 Stager Girls to get a gal motivated and inspired. Incredible amounts of creative, business savvy companies out there. What a blast to be in Vegas at a Staging Convention.


 Back to work!

 This is the Cristalla in Seattle's Belltown neighborhood. It is beautiful and swanky.

Stagers Unite

/

Sister Extraordinaire and I are heading off to Vegas for a Staging Convention. Yes, there are conventions for Stagers too.


We are leaving the company in the capable hands of our Stager Girls. We have been staging 4-5 jobs each week and what fun seeing the warehouse reduce its inventory. Had a few minutes to rework the Stager Girl office which is getting cuter each time we tweek. Tah Tah for now!

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.
