Home Staging/ Interior Design at ChristmasCategory: Family
Article added by: Teri Woods
First impression starts at the door which takes center stage at all times. Add a simple but lovely wreath to your front door or at each side of your door. When a home is on the market during the holidays you should play up the decor to entice the buyer inside. At Christmas time a special feel is in the air and a potential buyer will be thrown off if your home is shown exempt from all holiday decor.
The smaller the square feet of the home, the less decor you should use. keep it very simple. A tree near the fireplace or tucked into a corner near a window. A couple of planted topiary's just outside the door with a set of tiny white lights. A poinsettia or two is just enough.
The larger home can take quite a bit of decorating and the decor should be a bit more elaborate. Introduce fresh greenery inside at the mantle or along the top of an armoire. Scents of mulberry or cinnamon are perfect also and you can purchase liquid simmering scents for the purpose of your open house showing.
As with decorating at any time of the year you will need to keep some simple rules of design in order for your spaces to be cohesive. Pay special attention to the focal wall in each room. This wall is where you will need to make a statement as the eye is drawn to this wall upon entering the room.
Keep it simple, not cluttered and let your potential buyers see the coziness and warmth of this lovely house at the holiday season. See us at www.Homestages.com

| About the Author: |
| I have been an interior designer for over 20 years now and in the past several years have branched out into the world of Home Staging. I have staged homes in the price range of $200k to well over $1m and can proudly state that each home was sold within 3 days to 2 weeks after staged. Staging a home for the real estate market is an absolute must for the seller whom wishes the home to sell FAST and for absolute TOP DOLLAR! Once a home is properly designed to sell it will appraise at a higher value as well. Brokers reap great benefits from homes that are staged in that the home will sell much quicker than others that are not prepared for the "show", the two go hand in hand, Stagers and Realtors. |
