Thinking Outside the Box' as Home Stagers is what we do BEST!

One of the key talents we home stagers have is the ability to 'think outside the box' when it comes to creating something out of sometimes literally, nothing. We often come up against a room that we know will sell better if we create the emotion and function we believe it should have.

Here is something we created in a PRES home staging training class. KInd of crazy but it worked! The home seller was suppose to get a blow up bed for us to work with but didn't. That happens so we had to think of a way to make a bed out of virtually nothing - except shower doors!

I'd love for others reading this post to share some of 'crazy' things they have come up with.

Dana,

As long as no one goes to sleep on it, it's fine. Great solution!

Wow! Great way to be creative and add some purpose to the room. I never knew shower doors could be so useful. It also looks like a great way to "hide" a few boxes of clutter.

I agree Dana -- it's so much fun to create things out of next-to-nothing!

On a previous staging job in an occupied home, we needed a coffee table but the seller didn't have one.  So, we took a bookcase from an upstairs bedroom and turned it over to make the table base,  then took a piece of plate glass from a TV Stand, and created this coffee table!
