We recently hired Mariana of Mild Designz to style our place for sale. By the time she was finished, our house looked like a show home.

Mariana spent 2 hours looking around our house made some notes. She then created a layout plan and sent a van load of accessories and artwork to our home. Finally, she came and spent a day staging our house before THE estate agent's photographer took the ad photos. The transformation was beyond what we hoped for and the house looked more like something out of a magazine that a regular family home.

Mariana obviously has a flair for design, but she has other talents too. She showed imagination, attention to detail and ever so gently steered us away from anything might not have appealed to potential purchasers. Mariana obviously grasps both the aesthetic and psychological aspects of what appeals to people.

I believe that the house sold more quickly because of her work. I also believe the cost of her services paid for itself many times over in a boost to the sale price.

Plus, while Mariana chose the accessories with an eye to potential buyers, we liked them so much we are purchasing some of the accessories from her.

Finally, we are so pleased with her work, we are planning to engage her services on our new home. Highly recommended.
