Staging On A Budget – Part 3

February 17, 2011 (posted by Jennifer Campbell, Home Staging Calgary)
Calgary Living Room Before Staging

Before: Calgary living room before staging.

You don’t necessarily need a large budget for staging your home. Staging on a budget is possible if you have neutral furniture, artwork, accessories and are willing to provide some elbow grease, you can transform your house into a show home.
Now that you’ve repaired all of your home’s to-do repair list and de-cluttered your home, it’s staging time! Start off in each room by determining what is your focal point.


Calgary Living Room After Staging

After: By removing the red chair, and replacing it with black chairs,
the feature is now the fireplace.

Do you want to highlight a view, fireplace or beam(s) in your ceiling? Arrange your furniture to feature this focal point. Plants are a great way to draw your eye up to the window to showcase a view. Artwork and accessories can enhance a fireplace or backsplash. Mirrors can make a room feel larger, however, be very aware of the reflection a mirror gives. You don’t want potential buyers to get a double take on a neighbour’s messy yard, a thermostat or a toilet.
