A Day in the Life of a Calgary Home Stager


Blog by Elysse Bulloch | February 21st, 2016


Calgary Stager Office Cliff Bungalow after StagingWhen you’re self-employed, most of what you present to the world has to do with marketing. So it’s fun to offer more casual behind the scenes glimpses once in a while. It’s what I love about Instagram. That’s where you’ll find more of what goes on in this Calgary home stager’s life.

I love seeing behind the scenes. It can feel like a touch of reality behind the gloss that is so often presented in a perfectly controlled image.

For example, doesn’t it excite you to drive by houses at night when you can see in the windows for a glimpse of how they decorate? To notice unique features? Or to go to open houses even when you’re just casually “looking”. That’s the appeal of all those so-called reality TV shows too. We want to see what’s “really” going on. We want to be inspired and get new ideas. We want to connect.

I’m not the kind of person who flaunts it all. I do love my privacy. But if you want to get a feel for the kind of person I am and what I might be like to work with, I hope you get a better feel through my Instagram posts. It’s your chance to be a bit of a voyeur!

What will you find there? Casual pics of my work as a Calgary home stager and property stylist. Lots of kitties. People who are special to me. Some of my favourite hiking spots. Beautiful things. Quirky things. Who knows…

When you stop by, I invite you to leave comments and ask questions. You’ll find home staging information and tips on the Simply Stylish Staging website. But you might have a question that isn’t answered there. If so, I want to hear it!
