Pawleys Island Home Staging

Boy’s rooms are fun. Keeping the age in mind is always important. In this picture I chose colors that could ‘grow’ with the boys for a couple of years. No one wants to replace bedding every year, so when choosing for the boys room choose something you can change accessories and make it feel like a new look as they get older. For instance we originally had planes, trains and cars for accessories with this look and 2 years later updated it by adding new prints and collegiate accessories.

This bedroom design is elegant yet simple. When creating a look for your bedroom you want to make it a serene place to unwind from all the pressures of the day. Make it your oasis! In this design, we chose a neutral palate and adding this rich blue/slate color and accenting with a rich elegant gold. Again, when using neutrals anchor your room with a darker wood. I always try to make my rooms functional as well as beautiful. Notice the 2 cubes at the end of the bed. While helping to complete the look of this room, they are also functional providing storage and a place to sit to take off your shoes. If you’re like me, the children are always in and out of my room so it also provides additional seating if the need arises. Don’t forget your touch of greenery and your done!

Bathroom decorating/home staging is so important. Bathrooms help sell homes, especially the master bath. Make sure you clean out ALL the clutter!! You ALWAYS want to have your master bath sparkling clean, windows and mirrors included. Add a simple flower arrangement, fragranced soaps and a few new spa towels and you have it! Remember if you have your home for sale, people are there to imagine themselves in the house so remove the personal items. A simple, clean look always works. Don’t forget to light a few scented candles! Neutral paint choices in the bathrooms please! Potential buyers can always add color by adding accessories with their own color choices and in their minds resonates as one less room they have to spend money converting.

This is such a warm, inviting room. Notice the color choice for the sofa is neutral. We incorporated different textures and patterns to add extra spice and interest to this room. A solid color pillow mixed with paisley and plaid pillows creates a warm and inviting feel. A strong color choice on the wall acts as a great anchor for this room. Beautiful yet simple curtains that are pulled back will give a larger appearance in the room. I always love to add a pop of color that is unexpected in a room, yet still blends, such as this great yellow structure on the coffee table. You only need one piece like this too add interest. Don’t forget your greenery and a few books. It really just makes you want to curl up and read a book!

Girl’s rooms are fun!! Remember to mix patterns, textures and colors. Girls grow up quick and they change their minds like the wind. Choose colors that can be changed easily. I love to use contrasting colors on the walls and the bedding. The green color choice in this picture can easily be changed in a few years by adding all white bedding with some splashes of color for accessories easily converting this little girl’s room to older, young ladies room that will carry her through several years. Night stands should always flank the beds. This is great for storage as well as practical use for lamps, alarm clocks and pictures. If you are home staging this room you want to remove all pictures and clocks leaving a clean look. Colorful, playful accessories are always a great choice for a girls room!
