Staging takes you places!
I love the fact that being a professional Home Stager has allowed me to travel all over my region to places I didn't even know existed... all right in my own backyard!
Over the Pocono Mountains, through the valleys, down private roads, behind gated communities...the spaces, places and properties I have seen and transformed over the past 5 years have been truly incredible.
My most recent staging though, took me somewhere I would have never imagined...a space where something magnificent took place...
...A place where Heaven met Earth in the most beautiful way.
This special place was not a million dollar mansion with magestical views but rather the humble gymnasium of my kid's Catholic school. Not pretty, not new, nothing fancy...but this staging of a different kind has been one of my most rewarding for sure.


A very special young man who has graced our school for the past year with his service was ordained over the weekend and choose to have his first Mass at our school which is quite an honor...the kids absolutely adore him!! Sooooo....operation transform the gym into a church was in effect. It was simple but served as a great backdrop for an incredible event which I feel incredibly honored to have been a part of.

Not something you experience every day...Take a minute and watch the video I put together of the Ordination at the Cathedral and then his First Mass. There are some really beautiful images....

If you like reminiscing about the 1950's, have kids or want to please your inner child or just have a great time, then you want to visit the Casino Theatre Entertainment Center, located at 110 Pocono Boulevard which is right off Route 611 in the heart of downtown Mount Pocono. Once inside, the aroma of freshly cooked burgers and seeing the memorabilia on the wall, brings you back to the sock hop days of the old fashion Malt Shoppe. You can get your fill of both old and new favorites here as well as take in first run movies, play games in the arcade, enjoy miniature golf (weather permitting) and special events. Twin theatres also feature at your seat dining! They serve lunch and dinner, the staff is very friendly and the prices are fantastic. They have a Friends and Family Night Special Every Tuesday that features dinner and a movie for just $10. are you kidding me? That is the best deal in the Poconos and was voted as such by various local publications. The Casino Theatre is a true Pocono fixture that originated as a dance hall in 1922 and has been a family owned and operated theatre, malt shoppe and fun center since 1975. For more information including movies and showtimes you can call them at 570-839-7831, e-mail them at info@casinotheatre.net or visit them online at www.casinotheatre.net.
