On January 7, 2009, prior to leaving for a visit to Atlanta, I received an inquiry about completely furnishing a 3-storey, 4-bedroom townhome located on I Street NE for the inauguration.

I submitted a quote as requested, deciding that (worse case scenario), I could fly back early. Since I didn't hear back from the realtor, I figured the project was a no-go. That is, until my cell phone rang at noon while I was waiting to board my return flight on the 13. Occupancy would be January 16, at noon.

Having just 72 hours left, I told them I would see what I could do and immediately (after prayer!!) called my team. By 11:30 p.m. on Thursday (60.5 hours later), the townhome was beautifully furnished and accessorized, with four beds made, pantry and fridge stocked, coffee maker/toaster, iron/ironing board, cleaning products, and toiletries in place. Mission accomplished!

In March of 2009, Staged Right was hired by an investor to assist in the renovation of a wonderful 2-storey penthouse just across the river from Washington DC. Although the space had breathtaking of views of the Washington Monument, Capitol Dome and Potomac River, it lacked character. By opening up the rooms and selecting fixtures and finishes that complemented the skyline, the interior of the condo became just as exquisite as the view.
