Kids Room Makeover and Reveal in Bradenton, FL
Bradenton, FL · Interior Design
We took a blank canvas and turned it into an imaginative jungle paradise, complete with a thatched-roof loft bed, hand-painted murals, rope vines, and cozy reading nooks. This kids’ room makeover in Bradenton, FL, is a perfect blend of fun, function, and creativity!
Every review
In our clients’ own words.
“Three days after staging was done, we went pending and secured a great offer. The buyers wanted to make sure that no one else came in and swooped it from them. It was a great investment on my seller’s part, and I am glad that I trusted Purposely Placed to do the staging. It paid off for my sellers tenfold!”
“I interviewed several staging companies. Not all were created equal. The proposal provided was fair and thorough. They focused on highlighting the home's attributes rather than pointing out it's flaws. On installation day, I left them to it and returned, amazed and delighted. Had a great open house and showing requests immediately after new photos were posted! Highly recommend Betsy, Renee and team!”
“Wow is what we can say and we will never not sell a home without having these guys stage it, the photos, the layout, bringing other rooms to life. Using them got our home sold quicker and more views and they are amazing and responsive! thank you!!”
“I am so pleased with Betsy and her team at Purposely Placed Home Staging for the incredible transformation of our home! Before staging, buyers just couldn’t see the potential, but Betsy changed everything with her stunning furniture, accessories and overall design. Almost immediately after the furniture and decor were placed, the house stood out from the competition and SOLD! There were so many compliments on the decor. I only wish I had know about Betsy earlier as her vision made all the difference and was worth every penny spent. If you need your Florida home to shine, do not hesitate to give Betsy a call.”
“I had a fantastic experience working with Betsy and her team to stage my condo. Betsy was incredibly responsive from the very beginning and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. The condo was professionally staged at a very reasonable cost, and it truly transformed the space. The staging looked terrific — clean, modern, and perfectly suited to the property. They were prompt, organized, and delivered exactly what they promised. Most importantly, the staging helped generate strong interest and resulted in a contract. I’d use them again and highly recommend Betsy and her team to anyone looking to sell their property. You won’t be disappointed!”
“Betsy and her team did an awesome job renovating and decorating our condo in Lakewood Ranch. I live out of state but travelled to FL and spent a few days with Betsy shopping and getting acquainted with her vision for our place and her getting to know mine as well. Most of our communication was done through FaceTime and text messages after that since I couldn't make it back to FL very often. I was so stressed when we first bought the condo wondering how I was going to find furniture, accessories, etc. and be there for deliveries, contractors, and handymen - but Betsy was there for it all. I trusted her completely with everything. The people and contractors she works with are top notch as well. I would definitely recommend Purposefully Placed Home Staging and Design to anyone trying to do a long distance home design/decorating project , or local design/decorating project. I'm totally in love with our condo!! It's better than I ever expected - it's gorgeous!”
“Betsy did an excellent job helping us get set up in a new home in Star Farms. We relocated from Colorado and everything was ready for us when we got here. The house looks amazing! We highly recommend Purposely Placed Home Staging & Design.”
“Betsy at Purposely Placed Home Staging was outstanding throughout the entire process. She stayed on the timeline we discussed and helped me see my property in a completely new light. I valued her thoughtful feedback, practical suggestions, and creative ideas as she transformed my home. Her expertise and attention to detail made a real difference. I would confidently recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced, forward-thinking home staging professional.”
“I recently worked with Betsy, Jen and the team to stage a bare newer construction listing and they knocked it out of the park. Good communication, punctual, well organized and of course, a great eye for design. I will definitely use them again for my Home Staging and interior design needs.”
“We had an absolutely incredible experience working with Betsy! From start to finish, she was professional, enthusiastic, and truly helped us transform our space into something we love. She went shopping with us to multiple stores and helped us find the best deals. She is also very flexible with pricing options and she is affordable for any budget. I strongly recommend her for any design needs.”
“I chose Purposely Placed Staging and Design recently to stage my home. OMG! I’m so glad I did….best decision ever!! Betsy and Jenn have been absolutely amazing to work with. We had an immediate connection and shared a mutual vision for my project. I truly appreciate Betsy’s approach when it comes to pricing out her services. She was able to give an approximate budget over the phone even before seeing my home. Betsy and Jenn are passionate about their artistry. I highly recommend them.”
“Owner and designer Betsy can be best summarized as follows: creative , budget conscious and spends money like it’s her own, trustworthy, a good listener, great at her craft and passionate about her work. Her work enables amazing positive energy that flows and one can feel immediately when you step into it. 😃”
“For several years now Betsy and her team have personally helped my real estate clients by designing and staging their homes for sale. Her attention to detail and the quality of her work is absolutely exceptional; not to mention that she brings it at reasonable rates too!
