Over the past couple of weeks, I have been sharing with you the secrets of Home Staging. So, by now, you would know that that a home will sell more quickly if buyers are able to imagine themselves living in the property. This is why we stage a home. Now, it can be as simple as re-arranging the furniture, adding some lamps, hanging artwork or putting things away.  But I have found that there are a few items that can make a home more memorable to buyer. So, let me share with you a few secrets of the trade! Here are [...]

Don’t Forget To Stage The Guestroom!

By |2019-02-12T16:43:15+10:00February 20th, 2017|DIY, Home Staging Tips|

Bedrooms are one of my favourite rooms to stage in the home. This is because all bedrooms stick to the same guidelines, they need the same furniture and they are all similar size. This makes bedrooms relatively quick and easy to stage. It is important though, to give each room the attention it deserves. You would be forgiven for dedicating a large amount of time to staging the master bedroom and de-cluttering the kids’ rooms. But bedroom 3, is just important. It’s where Nan will sleep when she babysits, it’s where the ring-ins can bunk at Christmas or possibly, a [...]

Staging A Small Bedroom

By |2019-02-12T16:43:16+10:00February 6th, 2017|DIY, Home Staging Tips|

If there is a space inside the home that most people have a problem presenting well, it would be the room that isn’t quite big enough for a bedroom, but too big for a home office. A lot of houses have them. We will call it the small bedroom. We will call it this, because, as your real estate agent should tell you, this awkward space should be presented as a bedroom. Why? Because, when it comes to sale price, bedrooms equate to money. So, today, I thought we could tackle staging a small bedroom. The other day, I came [...]

Styling a Bookcase in 6 Easy Steps

By |2019-02-12T16:43:16+10:00January 30th, 2017|DIY, Home Staging Tips|

I  truly love styling a bookcase because it can be a window into your passions, and an opportunity for you to display your favourite things. They add warmth and personality to a space, whilst being the perfect solution for adding storage and style. They are a hardworking piece of furniture. The problem is, if your home is anything like mine, the bookcase ends up collecting piles of things that don’t really belong there. So, take a couple of hours, give the bookcase a little attention and turn it into the focal point of the room. Styling a bookcase is a balance [...]

Styling Your Bedside Table

By |2019-02-12T16:43:16+10:00January 23rd, 2017|DIY, Home Staging Tips|

All too often, the bedside table is used as a dumping ground for books, remnants of midnight snacks and boring alarm clocks. Looking over at my nightstand, it is adorned with an empty baby bottle, a toy dinosaur and Canadian travel books. Obviously, the bedside table is a very functional piece of furniture. Nevertheless, when staging your home for sale, it also needs to be presented stylishly. So today, I’m going to share with you a few styling tricks that will transform your little table into a well-styled, balanced space. Your newly styled bedside table will reflect your design aesthetic, and will be [...]

5 Tips for Staging Your Kitchen

By |2019-02-12T16:43:17+10:00January 9th, 2017|DIY, Home Staging Tips|

Kitchens rank very highly on a home buyer’s priority list, and the condition of your kitchen can make or break a sale. Luckily, there are a number of home staging tips that can help make your kitchen look more appealing to a wider number of buyers. Remember, that when staging your kitchen, the result is not a practical kitchen. Living in a property and selling a property are two different things. It’s quite impractical to live with a staged kitchen. Benchtops tend to get cluttered and keeping it spotless is a pain in the butt. However, if your property is priced right and [...]

The Staged Bed

By |2019-02-12T16:43:19+10:00December 26th, 2016|DIY, Home Staging Tips|

I have told you before that bedrooms are my favourite room to stage. The reason I like them is because there are "rules" that come with staging a bedroom. A bed, with two matching bedside tables and two matching lamps, a piece of art work and if space permits, a dresser, desk or sitting chair. These rooms are so simple and yet, when done right, they can be one of the best transformed rooms in a home. But, for this to be true, you must stage your bed like a professional! Think of the beds [...]

kjjhfjf When I first started out Home Staging, I wanted to find the best staging products, for the lowest price. I would look for knick knacks, frames and linen that would last a number of seasons and not only suit the current trend. Eventually, I came up with a little black book of trusty suppliers. A list of places, where I can visit and not be disappointed. As home staging is all about your return on investment, these shops also offer great value for money.  Best of all, they also offer online shopping! Perfect if you live too far from [...]
