A home makeover can change your life forever. This one was huge, and had an enormous impact on the whole family (Mum, Dad and four boys). My client said:
“I don’t think we will ever live in such cluttered surroundings again as we did when you first came to see us, I just refuse to when I see how beautiful a home can look without it. I think the family are starting to get the hang of it – though the boys rooms can still be messy sometimes, and M leaves a trail of tools behind him. For myself I have got even better at throwing away stuff – and I hope the others will eventually catch the bug from me. M did actually thank me for clearing up his office last week while he was away – rather than blow his top which was what everyone predicted – so I call that progress.”
It takes a lot of courage to invite someone into your home and admit that you need help with it. This client was considering selling the home to make a move down south, but knew she would have to drop the price unless she made some improvements. Following the home staging/makeover, she had a few valuations and was delighted that one agent commented on how tidy it was… and another offered lower set-up rates because I had supplied the photographs!
My client recommended me to a friend, who also loved my ideas for her home. She said
“We are both saying why didn’t we make our homes beautiful straight away
when we moved in – why did it take until we were leaving before we made the
effort? And we both say that next move – it will be full steam ahead with
cushions, curtains and paint to make a really lovely home to enjoy.”
They had both watched House Doctor programs in the past, but like many of my clients, they didn’t know where to start. For any queries or comments, please contact me, Lynn, on 01509 551392, or return to the website using the link at the top of the page.
