Tips For Staging Your House

Exterior:
 1.) Have a fancy door, or patio!
the first parts of your house people will see will be your door or patio. If your door is elegant and classy, it'll draw people in and give your house attention.
 2.) Your Backyard
Make the backyard spotless and well organized. This shows your well organized and know how to make your yard look beautiful. Also make sure to water the grass so it stays a good green.
 3.) Have a garden
 gardens are every floral and attract people in. There colorful and provide calmness to everyone, so plant some flowers and get your garden on!


Interior:
t those dishes put away! Dirty caulking? Replace it yourself and wipe it down with a sponge afterwards.
5. Fix those little defects.
Worn out boards or linoleum? Toilet that doesn't quite flush? These seemingly easy repairs will leave a prospective buyer wondering what other repairs lurk beneath those floorboards. This will NOT get your house sold. Fix those little problems now.
6. The bedroom is for beds.
Multi-purpose rooms are bad deals. Besides the clutter they invariably drag with them, multi-purpose rooms make the house appear as if there aren't enough rooms in the house. Not a good sign to any buyer.
7. Olfactory sense.
The sense of smell doesn't just turn off when you look for a new home. In fact, it might go into overdrive due to the unfamiliar place, or in the search for offer-lowering defects. To keep that top dollar, remove any possible source of odor (taking out the trash is a fantastic idea), and introduce sources of good smells, like open windows or baked goods. God help you if you burn things, though.

Harmony

My "unity"/theme and variety is mother nature or animals.

Bad Scale & Proportion

The pillows are too large for the couch, the lamp is also too large for it's stand. and the stand is too small. For proportion, the shade is too large.

Rhythm

We were suppose to have repetition, radiation, and gradation shown in a bedroom we created. I used the wallpaper in the bedroom as the repetition. I used the chandelier for my radiation, and I used the potraits/posters for gradation.
