Fruit is an inexpensive accessory and shows off so well when staging a kitchen. Strategically placed dark red apples can draw your eye to a beautiful backyard, bright oranges can draw your eye to an island topped off with granite countertops. Worried about the fruit spoiling? Why not consider fake fruit? I’ve fooled past clients who got a great chuckle when they realized the fruit wasn’t real.

Glass coffee & end tables are great for staging bonus rooms. Since they are see-through, they make the space feel larger. If for any reason you can’t center the couch/loveseat with end tables, add a plant to balance the space out.

Something very important to consider when staging a kitchen as with any other room: showcase the room’s feature. In kitchens that feature will be countertops, cupboards, appliances or beautiful backsplash. To feature any of these, make sure they are not hidden by dishes used on a daily basis.

When staging living rooms, it’s so important to make sure your eye is drawn to the room’s feature like a view or fireplace. To achieve this, try re-arranging your furniture, artwork and accessories as well as make sure your blinds are open!
