Staging made simple: every step, every room, every detail - done right.
The Home Staging Lab
A step-by-step system for getting your home market-ready, without the overwhelm.
Ready to Learn Exactly How to Prepare Your Home for Sale - Without the Overwhelm?
Selling your home comes with enough stress already, yet somehow, getting it ready to sell feels even harder. You’ve known it was coming, but now that it’s here, the pressure to “get everything just right” feels intense.
You’ve been up late scrolling through scattered tips and conflicting advice… yet you’re more overwhelmed than ever.
What should you tackle first?
What actually matters to buyers?
How do you make your home shine without wasting time on things that don’t move the needle?
You’re worried that with the little time you do have, you’ll focus on the wrong things. You just want your home to look its absolute best so it sells quickly and for the most money possible.
I see you. And you’re not alone.
If you wish someone would just take you by the hand, walk you through every step in the right order, and give you the confidence that your home is truly market-ready…
Welcome. That’s exactly why I created the The Home Staging Lab.
When You Don’t Have a Clear Plan, Everything Feels Harder.
You spend time on tasks that seem important, but still find yourself second-guessing every decision. You move furniture, clean endlessly, maybe even buy a few things, yet some rooms never quite come together. Certain spaces keep nagging at you, and you’re left wondering whether buyers will see potential… or just problems.
Without a plan, staging often turns into:
working on the wrong rooms
stressing over details that don’t impact value
fixing things buyers won’t notice
feeling unsure right up until listing day
And the hardest part isn’t the work, it’s the uncertainty.
You only get one chance to make a first impression. When so much time, money, and emotion are tied up in selling your home, guessing is exhausting.
That’s exactly why having a clear, step-by-step system changes everything.
A Clear System Changes Everything
When you know exactly what to do (and in what order) staging stops feeling overwhelming and starts feeling manageable.
Instead of guessing, you follow a clear plan.
Instead of jumping between rooms, you work with intention.
Instead of worrying you missed something, you move forward with confidence.
That’s where The Home Staging Lab comes in.
This course was created to replace scattered advice with a simple, proven system you can trust. Inside, you’ll be guided step by step through the staging process - so you always know what to focus on, what to ignore, and how to make the biggest impact with the time and energy you have.
You’ll learn how to:
prioritize the rooms that matter most to buyers
stage each space in a logical, stress-free order
highlight your home’s strengths while minimizing distractions
create a clean, inviting, photo-ready look without overdoing it
By the end, you won’t be wondering if your home is “ready enough.”
You’ll know it is.
The Home Staging Lab gives you clarity, structure, and confidence—every step, every room, every detail… done right.
What’s Inside The Home Staging Lab
The Home Staging Lab is a complete, step-by-step system designed to guide you through the staging process from start to finish, so you always know what to do next.
The tiny course is intentionally structured into three clear phases, making it easy to follow and easy to complete.
Phase 1: Foundation & Strategy
This first phase sets the tone and gives you clarity before you pack a single box or move a single piece of furniture.
✔ Welcome & Foundation
Learn how buyers see homes, what truly influences value, and how to approach staging with confidence, not perfection.
✔ Prep Work & Prioritization
Get organized, create a realistic plan, and learn how to focus your time and energy where it matters most, before diving into individual rooms.
Phase 2: Room-by-Room Staging
This is the heart of the course: practical, room-specific guidance for real homes.
Each module walks you through exactly how to stage that space so it looks clean, intentional, and inviting to buyers.
✔ The Entry
Create a strong first impression the moment buyers walk in (or scroll past your listing photos).
✔ The Living Room
Learn how to arrange furniture, reduce visual clutter, and highlight the room’s purpose and scale.
✔ The Kitchen
Simple, effective staging strategies that make kitchens feel clean, functional, and desirable—without major renovations.
✔ The Primary Bedroom
Create a calm, neutral retreat that appeals to buyers and photographs beautifully.
✔ Children’s Bedrooms
Stage kid-friendly spaces in a way that still feels clean, flexible, and buyer-friendly.
✔ Home Offices
Present work-from-home spaces that feel organized, purposeful, and not overwhelming.
✔ Storage Areas
Yes, even hidden spaces matter. Learn how to stage closets, pantries, and storage spaces so buyers feel confident there’s room for everything and your home is well-maintained.
Phase 3: Wrap-Up & Final Prep
This final phase ensures nothing gets missed when it counts most.
✔ Course Conclusion & Final Walk-through
Pull everything together, review your home with fresh eyes, and prepare confidently for listing.
✔ Bonus Printable PDFs
Practical tools to keep you organized and calm throughout the selling process, including:
A Pre-Listing Staging Checklist
A Pre-Showing Checklist
A Photo Day Prep Guide
All designed to be printed, saved, or checked off on your phone.

“When I met Tara, I didn’t think that I needed the services of a design specialist and stager but we took a meeting with her to learn a bit more about her business and services.
What struck me immediately about Tara is how genuine and down to earth she was. She was professional, organized, and earnest. She came well prepared for the meeting. This was a completely different experience from the last stager that I had hired. I decided right then that I would invite Tara to my next seller’s appointment.
Fast forward several alater and 100s of successful home sales since, Tara has been there for every listing. We call her “our secret weapon” because she can go in and help work with sellers to be ready for photography in the kindest way with excellent results every single time.
We have helped more sellers sell homes for more money because of Tara‘s skill and gentle way she approaches every client. Thank you Tara, for everything you do.”
— Hayley Poirier, Realtor
“Tara is innovative, smart and an amazing communicator. Her staging services help my clients work through her detailed list, allowing them to be show-ready even with pets or a young family.
Always 5 star service!"
— Christa Aleman, Realtor
"I've worked with Tara on multiple renovation and listing projects and her expertise is invaluable.
She has an incredible talent for transforming spaces, highlighting a home's best features and creating an inviting atmosphere that appeals to buyers. Tara's insights during the renovation process ensure every design decision aligns with what sells.
My clients are always impressed by the stunning results and the staged homes consistently receive great feedback and sell quickly.
I highly recommend Tara to anyone looking to maximize their home's potential."
