Warning: 10 mistakes when selling your home
Everything that I am about to say in this post comes from my own personal experiences as a realtor over the last eight years. I am not HGTV or Jeff Lewis of Interior Therapy but I am certain these are important things you should know when selling your home.

What is Hannah Parker Home Styling?
Hannah Parker Home Styling has been in the works for several years as I have been organizing, staging homes for sale and offering my design thoughts and ideas to friends, sometimes unsolicited. 🙂 Witnessing the moment when excitement, deep relief or a sense of rest washes over another person after seeing their transformed space is so energizing for me. I want to help people make their home’s story a better reflection of who they really are and in turn will be telling my own story.

My style traits & influences
I love the city, have a great affection for anything organized, love Americanos, fresh flowers, would always rather be wearing one less piece of jewelry, love news on my iPhone but will never give up savoring the pages of design magazines, believe deeply in the handwritten note, promise that one day I’ll be a great cook, secretly love wandering through Scott’s Antiques alone, delight in the photographs of Bill Cunningham, swear by cutting ones wardrobe in half, fall in love with NYC every time I visit and consider my father’s artistic eye my best inherited trait.
