New HGTV Series "The Stagers" Showcases one of Real Estates Fastest-Growning Trends
OK - Here it is - a show all about Home Stagers...

Here's the Link for this article.http://www.channelcanada.com/Article2229.html and the first paragraph.

How does a home – on the real-estate market for months – suddenly sell for $100,000 over the asking price? The answer is home staging, the art of neutralizing a home with upscale furniture and art to create a showroom perfect space that sends homebuyers scrambling to bid top dollar. For the first time, HGTV’s new series “The Stagers” exposes the high-pressure world of home staging, going behind-the-scenes at DEKORA, Canada’s leading home staging company. A Paperny Films production, “The Stagers” airs Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET/7 and 11 p.m. PT beginning July 1 on HGTV Canada.

Let's hope this will be a great help to the Home Staging industry...It looks like that it's starting in Canada - let's hope to see in the US soon. Let me know what you think - there is a You Tube video trailer at the end..

Great Decorating Bargains -Think Outside The Box

As a decorating and interior redesign specialist, I am always looking for quality home decor items at a bargain.. I often check out consignment stores, discount and super stores, even hardware stores and of course - online sources... Remember, when it comes to great design - think outside the box!!

Some of my favorite local stores include TJ Maxx, Steinmart, Ross and even Target, but for fabulous online sources - check out the awesome buys at SmartBargains with these April specials 12% off for New Customers - Ends 4-15-08 and Free Shipping on Orders of $75 or more - Ends 4-15-08 They have unbelievable prices on high thread count sheets and linens.. We have purchased these for our cabin rentals and our guests love them.

For some reason, I don't get many catalogs in the mail anymore, I remember getting the Domestications catalog before and enjoying it - so it's even better checking them out online now Shop Domestications "America's Authority in Home Fashions"



I'm not sure how many of you do any sewing but if you decorate, it is a fantastic way to personalize the space with decorative throw pillows, window treatments and even throws.. I have found it very difficult to find many retail "brick & mortar" fabric stores around anymore so I was thrilled to find this website Fabric.com...Sew Something!



I hope that you get some inspiration and bargains from some of my sources.. Check us out at http://www.JustHeavenlyDecor.com

Interior Redesign & Home Staging Accents From The Backyard

Need a little fresh inspiration for your home staging or decorating project?? Look no further than your own backyard. Fall is one of my favorite times of the year to take a walk in the woods for free natural elements.

Grab a basket, clippers and your imagination! Fill your basket with pinecones, sprigs of cedar, acorns or tree limbs. Use colorful fall foliage in frames - instant art... Shadowbox type frames can become focal points in your room with pleasing arrangements of twigs, leaves and pinecones -just hot glue or attach with wire. Styrofoam cones or balls also can easily be covered with moss, leaves, cones and acorns. Create three different sizes for a unique design grouping.

Design more custom decorative accent pieces with these beautiful organic and "green" items by placing them in an unusual or unexpected container. Creative containers can be anything from an antique teacup to an old ice bucket. What better way to offer something custom and affordable for your decorating client or your own home.

Stay tuned for more affordable interior decorating, redesign and home staging ideas with project instructions - coming soon.

Just Heavenly Décor, Design & Home Staging – Hickory NC - We Take Your Home From Ordinary to Extraordinary

Introducing Just Heavenly Decor, Design & Home Staging in Hickory NC

Just Heavenly Decor, Design & Home Staging is a dream come true.. What a blessing from the Lord to be starting a new career in all the things that I truly enjoy - art, design, redesign, decorating, sewing and everything creative... I recently completed my Interior Redesign & Home Staging Certification in Virginia through AARC and started my business in Hickory NC.

We offer interior decorating, redesign, one day decorating with your existing furnishings, color consulting and home staging services in the entire Hickory Metro area, the High Country of North Carolina and the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area of Tennessee. See our website for more information Just Heavenly Decor & Design

Interior Redesign or One Day Decorating has become a credible and affordable decorating alternative in the ever changing field of interior design. Home Staging has proven to sell homes more quickly and for top dollar. It's all about adding a few beautiful accessories and you have a brand new look.

Over the years, I have always dabbled in something creative.. Even while handling our other business ventures, I always seem to find a little time for my love for interior design, art and home decor. I have a long list of "artistic" trials and triumphs, always trying new creative endeavors.. Just Heavenly Decor & Design will combine all those skills to create that fresh, new space you have been looking for - within your decorating budget.

My artistic designs began early with Barbie fashion creations then on to hand painted clogs in my teenage years.. Later, I studied Fashion and Interior Design at Bauder College in Atlanta which led to my working in fashion and retail marketing. During later years while my husband and I were building our other businesses, I always managed to squeeze in little snatches of "creative time" to do hand painted floor cloth rugs, decorative accessories, furnishings, Christmas ornaments and many other projects..

The love for interior design and home decor grew and became more evident as my husband and I designed, built and furnished our first log cabin vacation rental in the Pigeon Forge TN area. We redecorated the second cabin, then helped renovate and completely redecorate a third cabin with a family member. We truly enjoy transforming - the ordinary into the extraordinary ! Let Just Heavenly Decor & Design in Hickory NC transform your space !!

My desire is to honor the Lord with any talent or ability that He has given me, I am very thankful for this opportunity to glorify Him - just know that I am nothing without the wonderful grace of my Lord and Saviour - Jesus Christ.. Whether therefore you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do all things to the glory of God. I Corinthians 10:31
