Staging & Styling to Increase Market Value & Expedite Sales
“Habits are easier to build when they fit into the flow of your life.”
At WhiteSpace Design Co., I believe that a beautifully staged home isn’t just about decorating—it’s about creating an experience. As the owner and lead designer, I help homeowners and real estate agents transform properties into market-ready spaces that captivate buyers at first glance. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for organization, I bring a fresh, clean, and inviting aesthetic that highlights a home’s best features while maximizing its potential.
My background in design, combined with expertise in decluttering and universal design principles, allows me to craft environments that feel both aspirational and attainable. From strategic furniture placement to curated decor selections, I ensure every room tells a story that resonates with buyers, leading to quicker sales and higher offers. I take the stress out of preparing a home for sale, delivering spaces that are thoughtfully staged, meticulously organized, and ready to impress.

The PROCESS
DESIGNing
-
We start with a relaxed conversation—on-site or online —to understand your lifestyle, budget, timeline, and hopes & dreams.
We’ll define how you envision working with a designer - as a consultant, personal shopper, and/or project manager.
The initial 30-minute consultation is complimentary.
-
Based on the information shared during the initial conversation, I’ll begin drafting a few design solutions with a list of deliverables and a fee proposal.
Clients have the opportunity to review and refine the Project Proposal before signing.
-
Work commences based on receiving the Signed Client Agreement/Proposal and deposit for services.
We discuss and decide our direction and action steps together including; aesthetic style, color palettes, material selections, furnishings, decor, and more.
We will collaborate virtually through Houzz, Pinterest, Google Drive, and email/phone. You’ll receive visual mood boards to review and offer feedback to narrow down selections together.
-
This is when we get to see everything start to come together and your vision come to life! We’ve finalized decisions, ordered materials, scheduled contractors, etc. We stylize your space for you to enjoy!
-
Congratulations! Together, we’ve created your ideal space.
Now its time to settle in and enjoy your new place!

Learn what the needs and objectives are for the staging process.
Understand the scope of the staging project - including timing, budget, materials, etc.
-
Walkthrough with recommendations for a DIY process.
-
Enhancing key rooms (entrance, living room, kitchen, dining room, primary bedroom, and exterior).
This option is typical for established homes and/or when there are people still living in the home that is for sale.
-
Furniture placement, decor styling, and decluttering throughout the home.
Proposals could include suggestions on; repainting, replacing furniture, upgrading appliances, adding landscaping, purchasing decor, renovations, etc.
This option is typical for a brand new home, a completely empty home, or a well-established home.
ORGANIZing
-
We start with a relaxed conversation—on-site or online—to understand your goals, lifestyle, budget, ideal timeline, budget, and hopes & dreams.
We’ll define how you envision working with a professional organizer - as a consultant, personal shopper, guide-on-the-side, and/or project manager. (Your level of engagement with each phase of this process will impact the overall cost.)
The initial 30-minute consultation is complimentary.
-
Based on the information shared during the initial conversation, I’ll begin drafting a few solutions with a list of deliverables and a fee proposal.
Clients have the opportunity to review and refine the Project Proposal before signing.
A deposit of at least 50% and a signed agreement are required to move forward with your project(s).
-
We pull ALL items out of the space to get a better sense of the inventory (ie materials you have in the space).
We will be thoughtful and intentional in what we decide to put back in those spaces.
-
Sort all of the items in one of the following action steps;
Toss
Recycle
Donate
Sell
Hold
Keep
We’ll discuss how you’d like to proceed with these action steps.
-
Now we take the items in the ‘Keep’ section and group them into identified categories (ie all the light bulbs grouped together, all the scissors, books, etc.).
-
Now that we know what items we want on display, what items we want in backstock, and where the items will go, we can determine what the most appropriate containers and labeling system will be. (There is a range of pricing involved in the containing phase, which we will discuss as we move along in the process.)
-
Congratulations! At this stage, we’ve established a personalized organizational system for you.
This system will require consistent tidying and shopping habits as well as on-going mini-edits to maintain an organized space.
Investment (Fees)
You will receive a personalized proposal based on the initial consultation session.
There are a range of needs with a lot of variables to consider. Here’s a bit of info that might help you get a broad idea on the financial investment it will take to achieve results.

"Alison’s organization and design contributions made the transition to my new home seamless and effortless..."
Alison has expertly organized and designed my living spaces, creating efficient and clutter-free environments that suit my family’s needs on numerous occasions. Most recently, she helped facilitate my move from an apartment to a new house. In just 3 days, Alison efficiently helped me dispose of unused items and identified strategic places for everything in my new home. She offered valuable decorating advice, provided all the necessary organizational containers and supplies, and managed to significantly reduce all my unused kitchen items! Every time I work with Alison, she knows exactly how to jump in and tackle whatever mess that has been overwhelming me. She is very efficient, considerate, and respectful of my preferences and personal style. Alison’s contributions made the transition to my new home seamless and effortless; I would not have been able to accomplish everything without her! She was able to find a perfect place for everything to go, ensuring that my messy boys always have designated spots to store their toys and clothes, helping me to maintain a clean and organized house. Visitors frequently comment on the cleanliness and organization of our new home, which is entirely attributable to Alison’s efforts. ~ Erika, PA

Super Helpful Decluttering & Organizing Assistance
I just finished another super helpful session with Alison Celmer of WhiteSpace Design Co. It has been such a pleasure to work with Alison. She has helped me declutter and optimize my kitchen, laundry and pantry storage spaces and now we just tackled the garage. All of Alison's work has been tailored to my needs and those of my child and pets. She has great suggestions on how to sustainably dispose of items I want to get rid of and she is super efficient with her time. I noticed I have had better habits about organizing and tidying since starting to work with her. Can't wait to take on the basement with her this fall! ~ Kim (VT)
