Embossed Plaster Art for a Home Staging Project

Posted on December 2, 2013 by Linda

For a home staging assignment two weeks ago, I had to create some artwork for the property. Yes – I could have used some that I had on hand…but nothing was quite right.  The investors wanted the home to be a bit more contemporary than what I usually do – and I didn’t have anything that would work in a contemporary setting, artwork-wise. So, I decided to create my own.

I did several pieces for this home but on this post I will show you how I created the raised stencil art that would be the first thing that a potential buyer would see when they opened the front door. (more…)

A Successful Home Staging Project

Posted on November 2, 2013 by Linda

Something I don’t talk about quite so often on the blog is some of my Home Staging work.  I thought I’d show you a project I did a little while back that was very successful.  It was a $3.5 million house that was sold in 3 weeks.  The property sat for nearly 2 years vacant and unsold until I put some furnishings in it.  Some of these items were painted by myself and my crew…and we also did a little bit of faux finishing in the house as well to help sell it.  We did everything in about a week – so it was a very busy week!  Here are some photos from the home.
