As a home stager, I've had a few homes that were utterly cluttered and were forgotten little treasures that needed some organization, paint - and some creativity to coax the beauty out of them! You dis a fabulous job!<br /><br />I have to learn to always take a lot of Before Pictures. I did one home where two rooms were just awful - and I changed them dramtically (but alas - no before pic - only the realtor had a picture of it in her head!).<br /><br />Keep up the great work!<br /><br />Linda<br /><br />www.beautifulstagedhomes.blogspot.com<br /><br />www.studioofdecorativearts,blogspot.comLinda Leyblehttp://www.beautifulstagedhomes.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5948862230201694042.post-36885636971114189242010-10-27T20:43:33.933-04:002010-10-27T20:43:33.933-04:00I am in love with the kitchen floor.

What doesn't amaze me though, is what a talented person is capable of doing with a dump like this!! GREAT JOB!!<br /><br />I was disappointed though, when I went to look at the MLS listing. NOTHING was done to the outside of this place (unless maybe more trash hauled away) prior to putting it on the market. The bushes and trees are overgrown, the lawn looks sparse and there are weeds growing up in the cracks of the driveway! <br /><br />You know what they say...first impressions are everything. I'm sure some people won't even make it into the interior of the home to see the WONDERFUL JOB!!Gonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08928460355403104172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5948862230201694042.post-91605852768929797002010-10-02T01:41:02.070-04:002010-10-02T01:41:02.070-04:00You did a beautiful job!
