This house sold the first weekend! : One week prior to putting this house on the market, the homeowners called in Wall to Wall Home Concepts, LLC to accessorize and re-work furniture layouts.  With just a few small changes, this already amazing house looked even better.  The changes paid off...they had a cash offer the first weekend it was on the market!

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIAL: Kristen Wall quickly pulled together a plan for staging our home that resulted in a superfast sale (the first prospective buyers made an offer!). While working within our short time-frame, Kristen cleared the house of clutter and created attractive areas that appealed to anyone looking.

East Haddam Gem Gleams! : HOME STAGING SERVICES BY WALL TO WALL HOME CONCEPTS, LLC HELPED TO SELL THIS HOME IN THREE WEEKS!

CLIENT TESTIMONIAL:  Kristen Wall's home staging services were invaluable towards the 2008 sale of our home.  Prior to hiring Kristen, we removed all clutter and de-personalized most of our home.  We cleaned and revitalized our rooms, polished our floors, and followed the advice of the home selling shows.  Feeling like we were ready, we put our home on the market and spent the next five weeks receiving nit-picking comments.  The comments equated to, "The house is very nice, but..."

We invited Kristen into our home and requested her help.  During our first meeting, she very politely suggested changes and helped us rearrange furniture.  These changes drastically changed the comments during our next showing, and Kristen had just gotten started!

One week after the first meeting, we had painted with her suggested colors, and Kristen came in to stage.  The next day, we had multiple buyers requesting additional showings.  Within three weeks of Kristen's staging, we were under contract, with five other couples expressing significant interest.  

We are extremely grateful for her talent and services.  She turned a negative experience into a very positive one.  Thank you so much, Kristen.  You're amazing!

"Sparking Up" the Space : This client wanted a fresh start decorating her living room. She completely cleared out the space (getting rid of most of what was there) and bought some new neutral furniture.  She called me to help her pull together a clean, simple look for the space.  Colors of the sea and sand were used to pair up with her blue upholstery and pillows.  We used many of her existing pieces and added a few new ones for a cozy new look.
