Kate was absolutely fabulous ! She is a true visionary and helped us with our preoccupied staging project. She came to our house and transformed it. She is very easy to work with and a consummate professional. I would also like to give kudos to Ashley Sarji of Gold Door Realty for connecting us. SK Doe

Phenomenal company - I highly recommend! Kate did such a beautiful job staging my clients home to sell. After walking through the front door, I immediately felt that warmth and homey feeling that the space was in dire need of. If you are looking for an interior designer or home stager, this company is the best of the best. Kate is a true artist who leads her company with top level communication, professionalism, and style. I already look forward to our next project together!

Kayla, I’m blown away by your enthusiasm and appreciation for staging. You were a delight to work with, very patient, communicative, and a highly motivated agent. Any seller would be wise to hire you to list their home. Thanks for a wonderful experience from one of your biggest fans. Keep me posted when it’s live and when the offers start rolling in! Kate.

Working with Kate was a real delight! My sister Christen recommended her, and she definitely lived up to expectations. In just three weeks, Kate created stunning designs for multiple rooms in my home. Now, my house truly feels like a home. The process was a genuine collaboration, with Kate presenting mood boards for each space and guiding me in uncovering my personal style. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her!

You were truly a delight to work with Courtney. I appreciated the feedback and collaboration. You’re really knocked it out of the park responding so quick and making difficult design decisions. I can’t wait to see the final result. Thank you for putting your trust and your home in my hands. Kate

Highly recommend Kate for staging! She helped us stage our condo while still living in it, and our space looks the best it's ever been! We were anxious about moving with an infant, and her calm and professional demeanor put us immediately at ease as she helped move furniture, declutter, and decorate. Selling is so stressful. Let Kate help!

Hi Erica and thank you so much for that review. I know you were anxious and overwhelmed and I was so happy to help with the process. You and Kerry did an amazing job clearing things out before I even got there. I will send good thoughts for the sale of your condo and for the purchase of your new home. Keep me posted Kate.
