Last month we staged a furnished property that just needed some special attention to detail and a few additional items to warm up the space. This project has the perfect scenarios for a Staging 101 Lesson So, this week I am excited to share some quick and easy ways to prepare your home for sale, or decorate your current home!
First up - The Entryway:
The Entry of this home is a beautiful grand space, however the white tile floors and current decor leave it feeling cold and uninviting. The solution? Add a wool rug in warm tones to warm up the space. Also add other decor items in warmer tones where you can, like the vase in the niche, it contrasts the cool paint color and harshness of the white tiles. We just moved this rug from another room that didn't need it, and purchased the vase from Ross for just $12.
Also, keep in mind the other rooms or spaces that are visible from the entry. Just right of the entry in full view is the dining room, so we updated that with a centerpiece in warmer tones, and removed a bench that was upholstered in cool tones that dated the space.
The hallway to the master bedroom with a view of Mt. Rainier is straight ahead from the entry, so we removed the large grandfather clock that was blocking that view and replaced it with a shorter hall table that allowed the space to feel even more open and draw you into the fabulous view!
Remember, it is not about how much money you spend, but how you utilize what you already have in your home. Try walking through your house as a guest instead of someone who lives there and you will be amazed at what you find!
Up next, the Living Room!
