Set Dressing for On Camera Pop-Up Show

Set dressing Karma Network’s “At a Glance” Holiday Pop-Up Show. The assignment was to represent every vendor in the pop-up shop on the shelving, which was the backdrop for the on camera interviews. The hosts referred to the products throughout the show. I worked with the brilliant Marjeth Cummings to source the flowers and succulents according to my mood board for the show, and then worked with her partner to direct its placement on the morning of the show. I then displayed the vendors’ products, added pillows to the chairs, and displayed a little table by our sponsor Karton sustainable furniture, between guest and host with flowers on top.

Harrison, NY Garden Wedding

For this very private wedding, I placed the ceremony backdrop and centerpiece flowers on the day of the nuptials. The permanent jardinieres were replaced with temporary ones where the bride and groom stood. In the first photo I have just lifted them onto the columns and angling them. Before the ceremony, I helped with aesthetic choices for decor and wardrobe. I also dressed the bride. See more in our Image section.

Retail Merchandise Display

Working with Visualoso on a seasonal installation at Christie & Co. Salon in Bayside, Queens. I placed window butterflies and sunflowers, installed ceiling decorations and displayed products on shelves according to sales goals.

CLOSETS

Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn Condominium

Walk-In Closet - 10 Ft. Ceilings

This closet was brimming with clothing, shoes, boots, accessories and luggage. The transformation took 10 hours of organization plus time to assemble steel shelving for accessories, and to paint the edges of the upper shelves. We purchased three corrugated steel shelving units from Ikea for under $25 each, and used the shelves that came with the third one to customize the other two. I designed the shelving units according to the measurements of her shoe heights. Within different sections of the closet, I created space for a growing handbag and shoe collection. Every item in the closet was purged and organized. Clothing was ordered with ROYGBIV by season, with two seasons side by side along the same rod.

Boca Raton, FL Home

5,000 Sq. Ft.

This closet was part of a 5,000 sq ft entire home project in Florida. The owner was a repeat client that I'd packed out of a Manhattan West Village duplex, unpacked into a Florida apartment, and who was now newly moving into this home. I unpacked and purged the home, created the winter clothing storage, managed the workmen installing light fixtures and the home theater, managed the delivery and placement of indoor and outdoor plants, and guided the delivery and placement of the owner’s new baby grand piano.

Harlem 3 Bedroom Pre-War Apartment

This project was the home of an older woman with a daughter in the midwest that flew in to try to purge the home. She took everything out of their closets when she got there and then realized it was all too much. A friend recommended Perfectly Claire and this was the result. Here are the dining room and living room befores and afters.

Brooklyn, NY Brownstone

Owner’s Duplex

Organization of a brownstone owner’s duplex to prepare for renovations. First two photos are before and after a 5 hour organization. In previous days, we'd created the stacked boxes in the top left and foreground of the photos from loose items on two floors of the home.

We are preparing for a gut renovation, so the resident still has to live day to day within the space, but also have things packed and ready to be moved out. On another day, I used one helper to take loose items from around the home and purge, organize, and box them. We then moved those boxes and excess furniture into storage per my suggestion to the client. You can see video of purge day below. The purge process took 30 hours including the storage day.

Here below, some of my team is moving the boxes into a storage unit. The owner will renovate two floors of the home and then move it all back in after the renovations. This is only approximately 20% of the things in the home. This project is still underway today.

Sheepshead Bay Home

Decluttering and furniture photo shoot for furniture sales.

In this job, 4 rooms were reorganized in 7 hours to create clear setups for photographs of furniture. We then conducted online furniture sales of 20 pieces. Working with a team of three, we emptied the contents of the cabinetry and removed unwanted furniture from the home. Here are the pics used for sales and photos of items purged from the space.
