CMFTO™ Blog

As much as I love fall in the midwest, recently I couldn’t pass up a wonderful opportunity: a 10-day trip to Africa with my brother. In Nairobi, Kenya, we were honored to make a donation from CMFTO to a phenomenal organization called Huru.

When selling your property, you’ll likely have a conversation with your realtor about staging your home. Earlier this year, we detailed how CMFTO’s end-to-end, white-glove staging services can transform your space, ensuring that it appeals to a wide range of potential buyers. 

In 1999, I was working as an interior designer in Chicago, focused mainly on helping newly or previously married couples combine their households to create a cohesive aesthetic, when I got a call from my dear friend Nancy Nugent, a leading expert in luxury real estate.

At CMFTO, we have the privilege of helping our clients create spaces that serve as sanctuaries. One of our favorite ways to add surprising and delightful touches to your home? Layering in one-of-a-kind, artisan items. 

When it comes to decluttering your home, it can be hard to know where to begin. That pesky linen closet? Those overlooked kitchen cabinets? That crowded basement? 

With nearly 25 years of experience in editing, organizing, and staging homes, we understand the importance of having a game plan, along with a clear system for every type of space.
