London has its sunfest this weekend.  Great music, crafts and lot's of food.   July 9 - 12, from 11 to 11 everyday.  Travel to Southwestern Ontario.

I just wrote a comment on the blog " A little lesson on scale - no pun intended".  I have seen clients and stagers use very small area rugs under dining tables.  When you place an area rug under a table with  chairs, you should be able to pull the chair out and the chair should  still be on the r...

Here is a simple one. Maybe it is not so simple and straight forward. I need to change my email address and I am not able to.  I have been sent emails that I can not receive.

Before you read on, I do love to stage.  My business is primarily consultation based.
