“Although I hired Ilse as a stager, she was SO much more than that.

She recognized early on the aesthetic issues that were keeping the house from selling and immediately went to work addressing those issues.

After Ilse was done staging, I put the house back on the market for $17,000 more than my previous asking price, and I had a contract on the house in two weeks!

This was incredible considering that I had been trying to sell the house for six years!”

Ilse helped me from the beginning to the end of my remodel, handling everything beautifully.

It was a big job: flooring, paint colors, cabinets and hardware, furniture placement and even purchasing the furniture.

I could not have done it without Ilse. The end result is amazing. I am always proud to show my house off.

My home was feeling a little sad, and with Ilse’s help, it feels happier now, and so do I.

Ilse has a unique approach to bringing in color and interesting elements. I call her my “home therapist.” I am a repeat client!

Ilse has an amazing eye and seems to be able to gather lots of different pattens, textures and styles and really bring them together. She is still a constant help to us whenever our needs change.

I’m always amazed at the bargains she finds, but she also has a sense of which items to spend on and which we can cut corners on and scoop up from Ikea, Target or Marshall’s.

My husband was initially skeptical about some of the decisions, but we trusted her gut and we have been thrilled with the results.

Letting Ilse work her magic has been a happy and satisfying decision.
