Design and Staging

Dennis and Nancy | San Anselmo

We want to let you know that we’re very pleased with the job you’ve done staging our house. I know I had my doubts, and often questioned your choices, but you’ve shown that I had no need to worry. The house looks great and shows beautifully! Response from people who have toured the house has been very positive. Your vision and hard work have resulted in a lovely final product. We appreciate all you’ve done to transform our home!

Margie is a dream to work with: We purchased a second home over the summer and gave her complete permission to furnish the interior for us. In a very short time she was able to get it done – she arrived with a truck load of furniture and small decor items and spent the day selecting the best choices to make it a comfortable, stylish, pleasing home. She returned several times to refine each room and further feather our nest. We couldn’t have hoped for more as her taste and her eye for getting things just right is awesome. She is flexible, efficient, resourceful and cheerful. She made just so easy, we keep on pinching ourselves over having the good luck to have partnered with her.

I have no doubt that the reason our house sold over-asking in just one week was the stellar work that Margie and her team did.
Far more than just staging, we entrusted Margie with all the kay remodel design decisions. Her choices were nothing short of brilliant. She clearly knows what sells in this market and she never made us feel as though we were spending more than we needed to.
Margie has spectacular taste and staged the house beautifully. She and her team were responsive, efficient and a joy to work with. I would recommend Margie and her team to anyone who asks.

My business is residential real estate and I have been using Margie Peterson as my stager for my listings for the past several years. She is quite simply brilliant! She has a team that includes painters, contractors, landscapers, floor experts, etc. Margie is a one stop stager! She has absolutely transformed homes into show stoppers. I would venture to say that Margie is more than a stager. I trust and am constantly amazed at how she creatively approaches each and every project and pulls miracles seemingly out of thin air! Margie has a stellar track record, and I know beyond a shadow of a doubt, that I can count on her consistently to create a beautiful home that practically sells itself. She completes my projects on time which is a major plus in the real estate business. She is right up there with the best in the business and a true professional.

I am so very impressed with Margie Peterson and her design expertise. Her skill at staging homes to attract multiple buyers is impressive. I was introduced to Margie after my home was removed from MLS because it did not sell. Margie walked through my home and was so professional and thoughtful. She is connected to the best contractors, painters and she is very current. She knows what a savvy buyer is looking for and that is what she delivers. After the renovations were done, and Margie brought in her furniture my home was completely transformed. I do believe that margie made all the difference in the successful sale of my house. We had multiple offers and we were thrilled! I highly recommend Margie Peterson, she is very talented.

Peterson's Shop

Liz Garvey | Walnut Creek

It was on a rainy, over cast day that my three sisters and I happened upon this quaint, unique, inviting shop owned by Margie Peterson. We quickly learned that this talented, lovely lady not only owned the store but also does design and staging. After spending some quality time in the store, filled to the brim with furniture, china, lighting, paintings, etc., we all walked out with our personal treasures. Can not wait to return!

Highly recommend Peterson’s, we have consigned there and bought many unusual pieces. The store is cozy and welcoming, Margie is a joy and has a great eye for design. Put a trip there at the top of your list.

If you like upscale consignment, then you will absolutely adore Margie at Peterson’s Consign and Design. Margie, the owner, is wonderful and delightful; has a great eye for upscale goodies and design and it shows in this cute little shop just off the square in Corte Madera. She, in fact, IS a designer. Along with various home decor goods she also has a fair array of antiques. Personally, some of the upscale antiques I have purchased, I bought from Peterson’s. Most of her items comes from upscale homes in Marin so the quality of items are fantastic. Go and see for yourself. You wont be disappointed. The only thing you will say is that you will never go home empty handed.

Peterson’s Consign and Design did a great job for us in staging a property for sale. Margie’s choices were excellent for making a dated little cottage look adorable & fresh. We plan to use the photos for before and after shots to show the value of staging. I would recommend Margie for staging in a heartbeat.
