They used quality furniture and they were creative in the positioning of the pieces to help compliment the floorplan. **★★★★★ — Maya Cima, May 2019** > BIG THANK YOU to Everything Creative Designs! They deserve all the praise and five-star reviews they have received. > Kim and Kelly are extremely professional, creative, communicative and easy to work with. > Our home sold in just 1 week for above asking!!! > As a real estate agent, I am a big believer of staging a home for sale. But I love design, so when I put my house on the market, I even entertained the thought of staging on my own. However, after seeing their work, I know now that I could not do in ten years what they pulled off in a couple hours! My place looks so amazing and has received nothing but glowing remarks from all who have seen it. > It has been statistically proven that professionally staged homes have sold 2 to 3 times faster and for 3-10% more than homes that have not been staged. Staging makes your house look bigger, brighter, cleaner and best of all; it makes home buyers want to buy it!! > Kim and Kelly are capable to create the right atmosphere for buyers when they first enter the home, they focus the buyers' attention on the product you wish to sell: the house itself! > Thanks so much for all of your help ladies! **★★★★★ — Rachel Moriarty Interiors, Dec. 2018** > I worked with Everything Creative Designs on three projects for HGTV (Home & Garden Television Network) that were filmed in San Diego. As the Interior Designer for the show, I was tasked with the renovating each of the three properties then Everything Creative Designs staged each property to perfection for the filming of the "Reveal Episodes". > > Each project was very different, had different design aesthetics and color schemes. They exceeded my expectations on every project and made my renovations sing! Leah, their extremely talented in-house artist, custom painted artwork for each project in the color schemes that I provided. Their entire staff of designers, stagers and movers are friendly and professional, which is a reflection of the leadership of Carol and Danni Kaplan. I look forward to working with them again and will confidently recommend their services to others. **★★★★★ — Betty Hall, May 2018** > Everything creative did a wonderful job staging my listing. I’ve used them several times over the years and have always been pleased with the results. **★★★★★ — Dane McCleary 710 Beach Rentals, Dec. 2017** > We have used Carol and her team for multiple properties, helping to furnish and re-design many of the Vacation Rentals that we manage in the Mission Beach area. Her team of experts don't just make the houses look great, but they also strategically design the properties to maximize rental potential and keep guests comfortable. They are always happy to incorporate existing furniture, or to fully furnish and decorate vacant homes (including all rental furnishings, kitchenware, linens etc.). We recommend Everything Creative Designs to all of the owners we work with, and they have never disappointed! **★★★★★ — ajflores10, May 2013** > I have worked with Carol and her team at Everything Creative on multiple homes and they have always provided an excellent staging service. I have used other staggers and nothing compares to their professionalism, level of detail, timeliness, and beautiful execution. They are definitely pros at what they do and the houses come out amazing. I would highly recommend them for anyone considering staging a home. I truly feel it is always well worth the money and the difference they make in the presentation of a home makes a strong impact to potential buyers. They are always a pleasure to work. **Comment from Everything Creative Designs:** > Thank you Aaron, it is always a pleasure to work with you. **★★★★★ — Chelsea Kaufman, April 2013** > We had Creative Designs stage our house for selling. We had three offers on the house within a week, and everyone commented on the design. They were professional and respectful of our space. We went to work and when we came home the house was completely transformed. We had a wonderful experience. **★★★★★ — ruckus7177, April 2013** > We were thrilled with the job Carol and her team did in staging our home for sale. After it was staged, we had a huge change in the kind of traffic and response through our home. I would recommend them to anyone considering staging a home for sale. ## Selected projects - [E.C.D.
