"Hi Jessica,
Thank you so much for this morning's appointment, and this evening's email. It's apparent you put your heart and soul into what you do: Your information is all substance and no fluff. Your organizing/appreciation for frugality/staging assistance really resonated with my current needs. I hope I was able to effectively convey my appreciation for your time and energy. I have begun telling people what a great experience our session was today. Well, thank you again, and feel free to email me if you think of anything else before our next meeting."

Staging During the Busy Holiday Season |
|
 Maintaining a house in market condition is tough enough, but add the hustle and bustle of holiday preparations and you've got yourself a bit more stress than most people care to handle!
Should a house be decorated for the holidays? What about decluttering and depersonalizing?
Whether or not you decide to decorate your house for the holidays while it is on the market is a personal one.
Should you decide to decorate, however, the décor should NOT be personal!
An easy rule of thumb is to keep it simple, anonymous and décor appropriate.
Things you will want to avoid are filling the room with a giant tree that makes the room seem smaller, overdoing the decorations, and ignoring the architecture and style of the house.
Decorations can provide a warm, cozy and inviting atmosphere, or they can distract potential home buyers and obscure important focal points in rooms.
Simple and elegant decorating techniques that avoid cultural bias will appeal to a broader audience of potential home buyers.

| Comfy, Cozy Holiday Staging Ideas! |
|
Try some of these ideas to create a comfy, cozy  atmosphere that will help sell your house today!
- Try one or more ornaments in a bowl, basket or vase.
- Add a simple flower and candle arrangement to the dining room table.
- If you must have a tree, keep tree decorations to a minimum, and avoid placing too many packages under the tree. Only place a few, very nicely wrapped gifts.
- Perhaps try a nicely decorated theme tree while your house is for sale. Opt to leave the personal ornaments in storage.
- Better yet, try decorating a smaller, tabletop sized tree.
- Simmer spices prior to a showing or open house to encourage the feelings of warmth.
- Use only white lights. Avoid colored and blinking lights.
- Do not use the inflatable yard decorations.
- Keep outdoor decor to a minimum and use fresh pine, berries, etc when possible.
