Staging A House To Sell

                                           

 

Cost:
         $0 (I rearranged furniture and brought pieces in from other rooms)
                 
            
Action plan:
         Rearrange the furniture to create a more inviting "Bonus Room"


Still To Do:
         Completed
        

Inspiration:
         My inspiration came from wanting to show this room as more then just a bedroom, it was a large bonus  
         room over the garage.  Showing it this way would entice home buyers to see this as more then just a
         guest bedroom.

Process:
        I started out by taking the focus away from the bed by placing it into a small window area and moving the
        conversation pieces (sofa and chair) into the middle of the room.  I then hung a mirror behind the sofa,
        and used an old trunk as a coffee table.  This not only made the room feel larger then it had when the bed
        was in the middle of the room, it made the room more inviting.  After changing the layout in this one room
        more potential home buyers commented on this room being their favorite room in the house and how they
        could easily imagine using this room.
