### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Jay H, June 2024**

> I am a big believer in reviews, truly - I think they make or break a purchase... I would give Laura and Papillon 6 stars if possible. We were really not loving the idea of having to add staging to try and sell our house, but it has transformed the property, truly. It's crazy to have lived in it, one way - our perfect... Then to see it with new staging all over and 100% PREFER it in the new staged way. Laure was communicative, easy to work with, flexible and made the ease of the actual stage day simple. She worked with us and our real estate agent and had it done in hours... Honestly, her work and her companies work is truly AMAZING! I would definitely hire again for wither interior designing a purchased home or staging to sell any homes in future.

**★★★★★ — Ruth Reese, Oct. 2016**

> The Papillon team transformed a house to a home in just a few hours. I was extremely pleased with their expertise and attention to detail, taking great care and pride in their work. The creativity of design was amazing, and I am so happy we decided to use Papillon to stage our house to get the best price possible.

**★★★★★ — Debra Allen, Oct. 2015**

> Laura Arnold from Papillon was our staging consultant for the upcoming sale of our home.  She was prompt, professional and made outstanding recommendations which she sent to us in the form of a detailed consolidated list with pictures and examples as needed.  Her attention to detail was fabulous and in fact, our house was sold (now in escrow) based on the realty internet pictures and virtual tour...the buyers did not physically see the house until after the offer was accepted.  I firmly believe that Laura's staging was a direct factor in that outcome and I would definitely use Laura's and Papillon's services in the future.

**★★★★★ — joliver28, March 2015**

> They were very professional and timely with all appointments and were very responsive when emailing, texting or calling. The design creativity and knowledge of various architecture styles was top notch.   They were able to take my vision along with my budget and create beautiful and functional spaces in my home. They also had a large pool of resources and vendors that I could use for the project.  I am very confident in their recommendations and have continued to hire them for additional projects.

**★★★★★ — sueg50, March 2015**

> I recently put my house on the market. There was a lot of clutter and I was really nervous that I wouldn't have the house ready to show. In one day, Papillon came in, rearranged, decluttered and pretty much performed a miracle. They used existing furniture and pieces I had in ways I would never have thought of and I didn't need to buy anything. They worked very hard all day and when they left, my house looked 1000 times better than when they arrived. They were professional, courteous and treated my belongings carefully. Could not be happier.

**★★★★★ — barbdon, Feb. 2015**

> We hired Papillon to assess our home for sale, and to advise us on alterations that needed to be made. Despite the distance between her office and our home, Laura Arnold made herself available consistently on time. She reviewed our needs, contacted and directed tradesmen, and checked the work. When it came time to stage the house, she had an uncanny appreciation of what we already had, from furniture to linens and decorative pieces and  accessories. Her eye is unfailingly true and while we may lament the loss our own, deeply personal home as we knew it, I believe that potential buyers will more clearly see a home they might love. She purchased a bare minimum of accessories, and they were at a minimal cost. Lest someone get the idea that her stagings are done on the cheap, we would suggest that each expenditure was cost-effective, yielding maximum impact at minimal cost. She was mindful of our budget. She is friendly, positive, and fair. Lastly, given just the few people who have viewed our home, I believe "Wow" was the prevailing comment.

**★★★★★ — heather9000, Feb. 2015**

> We were extremely pleased with Laura's services.  We asked her to come in and stage our house before we placed it on the market for sale.  She has great ideas, is thoroughly professional, respectful, patient, and completely on target with her recommendations.  My advice, give her the keys and let her drive!

**★★★★★ — judihouzz01, Feb. 2015**

> My clients needed an extreme makeover and Laura made it happen!  Using most of the furniture and accessories already at hand with a few things added it was truly a transformation.
> My open house was a huge success .

**★★★★★ — nossawamy, Oct. 2014**

> Papillon staged my house prior to final MLR listing.  I was very impressed with their professionalism and the results were great.  I was skeptical having this type of service done and rearranging our personal belongings but Laura was very good at making me feel comfortable and really did provide a end result we felt was definitely worth the time and money.

**★★★★★ — jnelsonrealestate, Oct. 2014**

> Laura is a top professional stager.  I have been using her services for nearly 10 years with outstanding results.  She transforms properties into showcase listings even when they are challenged by location, age or condition.  Her results speak for themselves.  All the houses she has staged have sold with some in record time.  In addition she had assisted my clients with staging for living and complete remodels of their homes.  I am proud to recommend her to everyone.  The entire team at Papillon come with cheerful attitudes, respect for the clients needs and desires and are ready to work.  They work to accommodate with time considerations and budget considerations.  I try to use Papillon on every listing and pay for listing consultations for every client as each home can use a professional decorator eye to make it more appealing.  This year alone I have used Laura for 7 listings and all but one is currently in escrow or sold.  Many sold in less than thirty days.

**★★★★★ — Berkshire Hathaway, Oct. 2014**

> Papillon was professional in every way.  I was originally referred to them by a respected associate and had seen one of their staging jobs.  Installation went exactly as was described, the followup was perfect, and best of all we loved the design.

**★★★★★ — jenhunnicutt, Sept. 2014**

> I have been working with Papillon to stage my listings for the past several years.  I would not have the success that I have enjoyed in my real estate career without the help of Laura and her talented assistant Monica.  No job has been too large or too small for them.  Papillon has worked some home decor miracles for me and helped me sell homes that would otherwise have sat on the market and sold for less money. They are very professional and considerate of my clients and their homes.   Thank you for all that you do Laura!  Sincerely, Jennifer Hunnicutt - Remax

## Community Q&A

**Q: love these floors!** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you provide the brand, species and stain.

A: Don’t remember the brand but it is French Oak in a natural finish. There are many manufacturers now that carry French oak and even some vinyl plank knock offs that look very realistic and are water proof and hold up to pets!

**Q: What is the Mfr and description of this carpet?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Where can I get it and see other colors? It's beautiful!

A: It has been years for that one so I'm not sure.  I would take the picture to your flooring place and have them research similar samples.  I'm sure that particular one is long gone.  Not sure where you are located but we use Flooring 101 in Southern California.

**Q: love the floors. What kind are they and where were they purchased?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Just an engineered wood plank.  You can get them at Flooring101 in Thousand Oaks.
