Our homes hold years of happy memories. From birthday parties, to dinners with loved ones, to simple everyday hangouts, your house has seen it all. And when it’s on the market, it’s looking to play host to others to enjoy wonderful experiences of their own. First, though, someone has to put in an offer! Show your property in its best light by trying out these decor items to use when staging your home.
Mirrors
Mirrors don’t just reflect the space around them—they can also make it look bigger. Use them as a tried-and-true decorating trick!
New, clean towels
Remember how you feel when you go into a hotel and see those fresh towels laid out? You can impress that same sense of comfort and relaxation on potential buyers by hanging fresh—and new—towels in your bathroom. You can also drape and layer them over the tub too for added appeal.
Throw pillows
Remember: less is more. You want to add enough throw pillows for a pop of color. You don’t want to add so many that potential buyers shy away from sitting on the couch or the bed. After all, you want them to imagine themselves living in that space!
Real flowers
Fragrant and gorgeous! Real flowers don’t just make your home look lovely—they also bring a pleasant floral smell to the air. You can also change out this idea to shift with the seasons, with pine boughs in the winter months and cinnamon sticks or pumpkins in the fall.
Fruit in a bowl
Simple touches say it all! You can emphasize that point with one of the humblest decor items to use when staging your home: fruit. Find pretty, seasonal fruit and arrange it in a bowl. The best part? You can eat it after the showing!
Area rugs
Frame your room with area rugs! They can add a true sense of depth and warmth to the room. They also can incorporate a splash of color or a pattern to the room, making the visuals more inviting.
