Dear Realtor,
Home Staging or House Fluffing is all about creating the
best first impression— paving the way for potential buyers
to fall in love.
Creating just the right atmosphere is accomplished in the
overall look of a home, but it's also very much in the
details.
As you know, potential buyers start to form an opinion of a
house before they even walk in the front door. It's
important to maximize curb appeal, but then you must also
carry that same attention to detail right through the rest
of the house.
Whether you call it Home Staging or House Fluffing, remember
the goal of the Design Studio of Spaces, located in downtown
Madison, New Jersey, is to romance potential buyers... we
want them to lose their hearts and say, "this is home, we
have to have this house!" (NOTE we have moved to a new
location!)

About Home Staging Expert and Interior Designer Joy
Nan Rodia |
An entrepreneur for almost 15 years, Home Staging
expert and Interior Designer Joy Nan Rodia is the
president of The Design Studio of Spaces, which
helps clients throughout Northern New Jersey, New
York and Pennsylvania.
While she has helped her clients by combining the
art of decorating with that of interior arrangement
to bring them everything from full-service
decorating, to home staging, and one day room
makeovers, Joy was struck by how many clients
started to realize that by letting what they wanted
into their homes, they could begin to let what they
wanted into their lives.
No matter what product or service she offers, Joy
believes her mission is to design new possibilities
for others.
"I learned how to do this first by creating
dramatically new possibilities for my own life and
what inspires me is being able to do this for
others," said Joy. Imagine the new opportunities she
is able to create for clients and realtors with the
$10,000 to $50,000 profit they make from her
services. "We all have a desire to express ourselves
and be true to who we really are," she explains. "If
we don't start by allowing free expression into our
own homes, how can we be ourselves in other areas?"

7 Simple Staging Tips |
Dark wall panelling: To update appearance, repaint a
light, neutral shade.
Dark rooms: Remove heavy drapes and outdated
valances. Use fabric swags or scarves for color.
Place lamps in a triangular pattern throughout the
room to equally distribute light.
Mismatched or ugly furniture: Cover with light,
neutral toned slipcovers to camouflage flaws and
lend a more cohesive look to the room.
Faded carpet: Use area rugs to cover unless carpet
is beyond redemption. Then replace with beige or
neutral toned carpet.
Bursting bookshelves: Remove one third of books and
accessories from each shelf. Eliminate paperbacks.
Pull all books to edge of shelf. Create balance by
putting larger books on bottom shelves and
alternating sides when placing books on shelves.
‘Combo’ rooms: To clearly define the function of a
space where rooms are not separated by walls, use
large, area rugs under each furniture grouping (i.e.
under dining room table and chairs; under living
room seating area).
What curb appeal? Keep all walkways cleared of
overgrown bushes, plants and tree limbs. If there is
no time for weeding lawn, mow it down low to look
like grass. Leave screens off windows and clean all
glass surfaces. Give front door a fresh coat of
paint or stain. Keep front porch clean and clear of
clutter.
