I recently was called by a Realtor friend who's house has been on the market for about 3 months. She has great taste so she didn't think it was necessary for me to help her stage her house. She had mostly good comments about the house but recently received one that said it felt cold and sterile. Here are the before and after pictures. It really was a minimal staging, just a few items, but it really did go a long way to make the space more welcoming.
Kelly, looks great. I'm working a a home that I did the same thing in the bedroom. I only added about 5 things to the room, that the homeowner already had. Sometimes it doesn't take much.
Hi Kelly, oh that really looks nice. I bet it feels better too. Nice work!
the little things make such a difference. Cold and sterile...just should be in this market. It's all about warm and cozy to get the home sold. Hi kelly! Kym
Kelly,
Funny how just a few additions can change the way a room feels. I love the branch piece you hung above the bed,... looks great!
Do you remember that game that was in the newspaper where you would compare 2 pictures to see what different? I loved that exercise!
And in comparing your B&A's - what a nice difference! You really notched it up! And it was done with just a few changes, but what a difference it made - good eye for detail!

Great example of how it doesn't really take a whole lot of accessories to have a more polished look.
Congratulations. Your post is being featured in the group; Staging Before & After Pictures.

Donna - You're right it doesn't take much!
Robyn - thanks and it does feel much better. It feels like a real master retreat.
Hi Kym - thanks for dropping by. Hope business is better in the East Bay than the North Bay!
Michelle - That branch piece works so well in so many situations. Probably my favorite staging item!
Susan - I love those games too. You're right. Can you circle the things that changed?
Melissa - Thanks. KISS is my motto. Keep it simple sister.
Kathy - Wow, I'm honored. Thanks for the feature.
Great post to show that it's the little things that can make a HUGE impact! Great work!
Isn't it just amazing what a few, well placed things will do to warm up a home. A pillow here, a throw there..it's all good!
Simple and effective. I bet you have a winner here now. Let us know when it sells. Thanks for sharing
