She is always timely, extremely personable and professional. Her work speaks for itself and because of her guidance and staging ability, she has helped us sell our client’s homes in a shorter period of time. We have had rave reviews from our clients on not only her staging, but also on her staging consultations and how involved she is. They have all appreciated her taking as much time as needed to successfully walk them through either the staging process or simply to provide a consultation on decluttering, shifting furniture or recommendations (paint colors, removing items, changing shower curtains, etc) to be able to show a home in it’s best light. We would highly recommend Inside Out Staging and Design and the services they provide, as they will get the job done with a quick turnaround time and it will be tastefully done. We can’t thank Michelle enough for always being flexible with her schedule and being willing to work hard to hit our quick and sometimes challenging deadlines in this fast pace Real Estate world! **★★★★★ — HU-149236041, Oct. 2018** > A+ staging! Very professional, with awesome results. Michelle was knowledgeable and thorough. She took the time to understand our intended outcome and executed. **★★★★★ — Shiri Macri, Oct. 2018** > Inside out was excellent in helping me redecorate my living room and dining room on a budget. I wanted a contemporary farmhouse feel. Michelle helped me not only pick out furnishings and decor that brought everything together cohesively, but also taught me tips I can use for the future. ## Selected projects - [Offices](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/offices-pj-vj~6370741) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Master Bedrooms](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/master-bedrooms-pj-vj~6370734) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Dining Room/Living Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dining-room-living-room-pj-vj~6370730) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Medford bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/medford-bedroom-pj-vj~6370725) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Patio](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/patio-pj-vj~6370668) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Bedford FR](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bedford-fr-pj-vj~6370666) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Contemporary](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/contemporary-pj-vj~6370660) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Lexington Office/DR](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lexington-office-dr-pj-vj~6370649) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Somerville condo](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/somerville-condo-pj-vj~6370640) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Woburn FR/Kitchen/DR](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/woburn-fr-kitchen-dr-pj-vj~6370541) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Burlington FR/DR](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/burlington-fr-dr-pj-vj~6370530) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Winchester Contemporary](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/winchester-contemporary-pj-vj~6313321) - Location: Winchester, MA - Photos: 4 - [Lexington Whole House Staging- Kitchen, Master Bath, Family Room Shown](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lexington-whole-house-staging-kitchen-master-bath-family-room-shown-pj-vj~5355035) - Location: Lexington, MA - Photos: 3 - [Whole house staging Watertown - Family Room shown](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/whole-house-staging-watertown-family-room-shown-pj-vj~5354968) - Location: Watertown, MA - Photos: 1 - [Whole house staging in Concord- kitchen, family room, living room shown](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/whole-house-staging-in-concord-kitchen-family-room-living-room-shown-pj-vj~5335882) - Location: Concord, MA - Photos: 3 [See all 15 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/home-stagers/inside-out-staging-and-design-pfvwus-pf~438283062) ## Ideabooks - [michelle\_maurice's ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/66413534/list/michelle-maurice-s-ideas) — 122 ideas [See all 1 ideabook](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/michelle-maurice) ## Community Q&A **Q: POLL: Air Fryers - Yes or No?** *(in Polls)* Have you embraced the Air Fryer? If so, what do you think? Vote and let us know in the comments. (Side question: Have you found any must-try recipes for it?) A: We LOVE our air fryer! Easy, quick, healthy, tasty and low maintenance clean up! **Q: Need help with chairs and mixing styles and wood tones in dining room** *(in Home Decorating)* My dilemma...we are having a natural, medium character walnut dining table being built for dining room. Currently my table, chairs and china hutch are traditional Mission style. Our floors are Maple \#3, 4 inch plank. I have an oriental rug to break up the woods. The new table will be in a Coastal style. It is a dining/game table so it will have planks across the top. Now I have a mish mash of styles. I'm okay with that, because that's kind of our style. I love the hutch and it contains precious pieces given to me that I want out, even if it's the style now or not. Please help. I want to honor the beauty of our new table but also keep things that mean something to me. new table will be similar in color to the second photo (this is not my table), but in a Coastal style-legs somewhat tapered with some gentle rounding to the legs and arc to the table sides. The color of the new table is more neutral, it does not have the red tones of the hutch in it. The third picture shows the tone in my chairs and hutch, the new table tones, and our floor. The example I have for our table wood does not have the final clear finish on it, so it will have a little more richness to it, but no added color. I also have changed the curtains to open, floor length white linen curtains. I need ideas of dining chairs to blend the different looks harmoniously and am also wondering, will my hutch still be able to stay in this space without the style clashing too much? The shape of the hutch does tie in with the shape of my cabinets in the kitchen to the right. A: Absolutely those colors would work. Look into an indoor/outdoor fabric like Sunbrella. It will be easier to keep clean as it’s treated and made to withstand dirt. You could also put slipcovers on that could be easily removed to wash. **Q: Fireplace design help!!** *(in Design Dilemma)* What would do for around my fireplace? The space is bare and i would like some storage and shelving. custom built ins? furniture places there? its 36 inch on each side thank you!! A: To go one step further, you could add open shelving above the closed storage for things you might want to display adding balance and visual interest. **Q: Grout color for Cappuccino backsplash and santa cecilia counter?** *(in Design Dilemma)* Looking for opinions on using a darker grout color for the cappuccino marble hex tiles I used over our Santa Cecilia Granite. I originally purchased ivory grout however the ungouted tiles look kind of nice and therefore I'm considering exchanging for a darker grout to pull in the darker colors in the granite and highlight the cool hex tiles. The flooring is also darker shades of brown plank. Any opinions welcome. A: I think either can work depending on what look you’re going for and what you’re trying to highlight. My only thought would be a lighter grout behind a stove will get constantly dirty and will be harder to keep looking fresh than a darker grout which may be a little more forgiving. **Q: master bathroom remodel** *(in Remodeling)* Hello everyone! My wife and I are looking for ideas to remodel the master bathroom in our house. Open to all ideas even getting rid of the tub. We thought about making a big shower but not sure what to do with the old one! Open to anything please help! A: Sorry! Wasn’t done. What do you need/want in your new bathroom? More storage? Easy care? Age in place? How long do you plan to live there? Which leads into- what is your budget and is it appropriate for your home? One more comment. Do you have other tubs in your home? Eliminating the only tub is generally not great for resale. **Q: Open plan layout help** *(in Home Decorating)* We are moving in to an open layout floor plan. This is the kitchen/ dining / living area. My preferred style is mainly mid century modern. The budget is not large. I would love some perspective from others on what you would do. We would like seating for many, thinking the focal point should be the window wall. And dining table has to double as office space for more than one person. Thank you A: I think you have to do a rectangular table given your parameters. A 60” table would be ok for 6 people eating but might be tight for 3 people to all work there. Get a table with leaves. They vary in size but are usually 12-18”. Depends on how much “stuff” people have in their work area. Would you consider adding a desk that could go against the wall? Could be more streamlined and console table ish and could do double duty as a server if needed. Sectional could work for you to accommodate more people. Could also do a larger sofa (though still realistically only 3 people can sit there) and numerous chairs. Would depend on size of chairs as to how many would realistically fit. Stay away from a loveseat as it limits your options both with moving it around and number of seats. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-11-10.*
