Staging Services

Harmonious Spaces educates clients about how to best merchandise your home to create the “wow” factor. This allows potential buyers to imagine living in your house and want to make an offer. It’s a three step process:

We meet with the home owner to educate them on the changes and upgrades that need to be done to the home (set fee). All the recommendations are written in a booklet for the homeowner to keep.

Working within the timeline, Harmonious Spaces can arrange for the rental of furniture and accessories for the entire home or just a few rooms depending on the budget. The timing of delivery would be confirmed and the staging crew scheduled.

Harmonious Spaces will bring in the team to arrange the rental items in order to create the “wow” factor.

Remember – a staged home will sell 2-3x more quickly than an unstaged or vacant home. You only have one chance to make a great first impression. Are you ready to wow them?

Advice

Keeping an item that you don’t use just beccause it was expensive is doubling the loss.  The money you spent is gone plus now the item is taking up valuable storage space and creating stress.  Cut your losses – either give it away or sell it!

Resist the temptation to go out and shop for “Organizing Supplies” until you have actually sorted and purged what you have. You don’t want to waste your money on something that looked great in the store but isn’t the right size or shape for what you want it to hold.

Consider reusing furniture in other rooms. It can be an inexpensive way to change the feeling of the space plus provide added storage. A small dresser that is no longer needed can be placed in a front entry with a lamp and key bowl. Hang a picture or photograph (or a grouping) and you’ve created a lovely vignette to welcome guests!

The bonus is that you can store scarves, mitts, cell phone chargers, etc. in the drawers and you will always know where to find them when you’re on the go.

For special occasions – consider gift certificates for local restaurants or theatre tickets as gifts for the person who “has” everything. They will be able to enjoy the special gift and the thought you put into it without adding to or accumulating “stuff”

Before buying items in bulk, consider how much money you are really saving versus the amount of space that it is going to take up in your home and how long it will take you to use it up. Items that linger in storage for months add to the clutter in your home and the small amount of savings usually isn’t worth the valuable storage space they consume.

Testimonials

Highly Recommend!

Our moving experience with Harmonious Spaces and Heidi Kachel couldn’t have been smoother. Heidi made an arrangement map for our furniture, came on day of moving to our house and supervised the movers and help pack odds and sods and then went to our new place and directed the movers on where to place things. She even came and hung pictures for us.

We would highly recommend Heidi for your moving experience, you won’t be disappointed.

Miracle Worker!

Heidi Kachel of Harmonious Spaces is a miracle worker when it comes to household disorganization!  She has rescued me from a sea of clutter and restored calm to my living spaces.  In addition, she has helped me to set up organizational systems for the paper clutter that accumulates over time.  Not only is my house looking tidier, my anxiety level being in my house has decreased dramatically.

Heidi has been a Godsend!

Heidi has been a Godsend in helping my mother in law make a successful move from her home in Waterloo, Ontario to the Sunshine Coast,  B.C. to be closer to family.

I was thrilled that Heidi is still in business since I first used her services for myself and to support a client over 10 years ago. Heidi is a consummate Personal and Professional Organizer. From start to finish, she organized and did hands on packing, organizing,  assisted my mother in law with selling and giving away items.

She was instrumental in coordinating the move with the cross Canada moving company and in communicating with us every step of the way. Heidi was there from start to finish overseeing the move to ensure that my mother in law had the support and help to make this big move on her own.

Heidi was caring and very flexible in responding to phone calls, emails, being available above and beyond the appointment times.  She was very responsive to doing what was needed. Heidi, you did an outstanding job and you are a great person to work with. You exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend Harmonious Spaces!

Outstanding Service

Heidi at Harmonious Spaces offers outstanding service to help in a range of organization tasks – from sorting large amounts of paper to reorganizing rooms to getting rid of what’s not needed and making space where it wasn’t before.

Over several years, Heidi has come to our home to help tackle large tasks I couldn’t do myself such as maximizing limited storage space, creating an efficient home office after a job change, sorting through accumulated kid and past and general life “stuff”.

Each time, the task is different or time passed and our family’s needs changed but we’ve been happy with the result each time. Our busy, active family has benefited from new layouts and systems Heidi has helped us put in place.

I very much appreciate that she understands the emotional part of organizing as well as the need to get the job done. Her energy and focus on the task while we work through it together are amazing! 

I would recommend Harmonious Spaces to anyone needing help with an organization job!

A Great Experience!

If you’re deep in a clutter quagmire like me, I suggest looking for a professional organizer!It was a great experience!

I hired Heidi Kachel of Harmonious Spaces. She was fantastic. Able to keep me motivated throughout the day, and savvy enough to know what to say to help me just let go of some items that I didn’t need anymore. By the end of the day, I’d filled 4 garbage bags with trash, and filled the whole back of her SUV with things to donate to charity.
