The Happy Nest

A love note to The Happy Nest from local realtor @rob.trinh. We put a lot of pride into our work and enjoy teaming up with great people -like Rob- who SHOWS UP for his clients! #teamworkisdreamwork

Destaged this property today after only a few days on the market! In addition to our staging, this sale was successful because the clients worked their butts off. They depersonalized, invested in painting and staging and followed recommendations laid out by realtor @meganadnams. Quality photos by @spartanmediagroupinc made a huge impact as well! Congratulations to the sellers who made 25K over asking!

Do you have a dedicated spot for dryer lint? I’ve often heard our team members use the phrase work smarter not harder, a dedicated spot for dryer lint is a smart time saver to have.

New Builds Need Staging Too!! Gorgeous Bathroom Designed by @spotdesigncompany Photos by @jlstudios

General store theme on point. Every room can be both functional and beautiful - especially the pantry!

Cozy outdoor spaces are critical right now so you can host your ‘bubble’ safely.

I always suggest new towels during my staging recommendation reports. Towels are such an intimate item and we want buyers to forget the current owner spent time naked in their future shower.

Let us put an end to your junk drawer nightmares!

Pretty sure you can accomplish anything and everything your heart desires with the incredible Karla with a K in your corner! Bravo!

Happy Halloween!!!

We borrowed this desk from another room of our clients home and created a little sewing station in an under-utilized area. Our clients daughter made great use of the space right away, creating cushions like the one shown in the last photo!

Did you know we help our clients decorate for changing Seasons? We have a couple Christmas transformations already booked for mid November! One of the homes we are working on has four Christmas Trees!

Hello lovely people of #yyj and beyond. I’m Jaclynn Soet, owner of The Happy Nest. We are a team of organized, creative and empathetic people who love to assist clients through their difficult home transitions. Every week I meet people who are buying and selling homes, assisting aging parents and feeling overwhelmed by their belongings. It brings me so much joy to take some of the burden off their shoulders. How can we support you today?

This home was a stunner. It’s no surprise to me that our clients decided to ‘love-it’ rather than ‘list-it’ after having our help to declutter, organize and decorate. We can help you FALL IN LOVE with your home all over again!

Another happy client! Our American neighbours were unable to visit their #yyj summer home due to the pandemic. Our team worked with them virtually to declutter, oversee the packers and moving company (which were hired by our client). We coordinated donation dispersal, junk removal and house cleaning services. Our clients felt at ease having our help when they were unable to physically be here themselves.

We make it work! This project required hands-on sorting and organizing, a small amount of staging rentals (to fit our clients budget) and our teams innovative ability to repurpose clients existing belongings.

Not your typical home stagers! . The Happy Nest Team physically helps clients declutter, disperse unwanted items, pack ‘keep’ items, arrange for offsite storage and manage various trades such as movers and cleaners. . We help clients sell valuable unwanted items and we repurpose your belongings for staging whenever possible.... . Relocating and selling your home is made as stress free as possible with our teams expertise! . Please reach out ASAP so we can get you in the schedule and help remove the challenges that are keeping you from making a positive change. . It’s never too early to plan ahead for a successful transition! Xo See more

What do you think of this transformation?!

Sold this beautiful piece of furniture for top dollar on the day it was posted! I took the time to clean it up (staining and oil), styled it and took quality photos. I saw an opportunity to make more money by putting in a little bit of extra work up front. . . Your house is your largest investment and the reward for cleaning it up could mean THOUSANDS. Do the work and get that paper!!!

This is where The Happy Nest and many other local home stagers source their rentals!

Do you turn your closet over when seasons change or leave everything as is? . . . After this next heat wave I plan to pull my summer items out of rotation and dig our coats out of storage!

Cannot believe it’s already September! Changing seasons turns me into a ruthless chucker of stuff we don’t need. It’s a great time of year to get storage, kitchen, bath and office areas organized before the days get too short. September also means kids are back in school - PSA to watch out for those school zones!
