If you are putting your home on the market, you want it to be appealing to potential buyers. Staging a small space can be a challenge. These tips will help.
The last thing you want to do is make a small room seem even smaller with the “wrong” furniture, arrangements and accessories.
A small space does not have to lack style! With the right accessories, furniture and colors your small space can leave buyers with a “big” impression.
1. Furniture – Make sure the furniture is the right scale for the room. An over-stuffed sofa in a small room will appear to shrink the space. Call attention to the architectural and design features of the room by making nice hardwood floors or the bay window your focal point. Using smaller furniture will help do that.
2. Natural Light - Using natural light is one major thing you can do. Play up all the windows. The natural light coming in will help open up your space. Using complementary curtains instead of blinds will help frame the light. Blinds can seem heavy.
3. Storage – a sleek media storage cabinet helps manage the clutter. Using an ottoman that double as storage is another way to keep the clutter to a minimum and space to a maximum.
4. Mirrors – Expand the room. Other transparent or reflective surfaces like glass can give the appearance that the room is less full. There are even mirrored object you can use around the room.
5. Other light features – Use nice modern fixtures, lamps and shades. Play up the design with modern or recessed lighting.
6. Color – Paint 3 walls a neutral color and one wall with a splash of color. This will help give the appearance of a bigger area.
These tips will help you get your small space designed for a big impression with potential buyers!
