Pawleys Island Home Staging

Dining room tables can be fun, so use your imagination in presenting a look. You can get this elegant look on a shoe string budget! Fresh flowers ALWAYS add a nice touch to the table. You don’t have to put them in fancy vases…a regular glass out of your cabinet or jars will work beautifully. Cut your flowers a bit short to cover the glass a bit and choose bright colors. Add a few bowls to the center, fresh fruit and there you have it. A gorgeous, elegant and refined table for under $50. Neutral plates and a pop of color on the napkins. Choose a color out of the main color scheme to add some zest and interest to your look. A personalized place setting is always nice and something your guest can take home. Hope you enjoy this look and remember…..Be creative with your color choices!

I love this neutral living room. To achieve this look choose 3 or 4 shades you like that are a bit off from each other. You want to avoid everything being so matching. Once you get everything put together you can tie your look together with a great pillow choice that incorporates all your color selections. The different shades play off of each other creating interest in an otherwise plain canvas. Notice in the picture above the shades of browns, tans, taupe’s…then the perfect pillow to tie it together. Always place some greenery throughout your rooms and add your “pop” color to at least one of the arrangements. When you have lighter walls and cabinets that can be seen from the living room, you always want to choose a darker wood or contrasting paint to anchor the room. Don’t forget a great area rug ALWAYS sets the tone for a great room. When going neutrals choose interesting patterns with subdued colors for the area rug. You can’t go wrong by placing the different shades you’ve choose throughout the rooms. Enjoy!!

This is a beautiful clean look for a living room/ dining room combo. If you are working with a small space remember to keep the window as open as possible. You can achieve this by adding crown molding around the windows and leaving them without window treatments if possible. This will provide a spacious feeling throughout the area. Stay symmetrical with this look. It will give you appearance of a larger space by offering more area to move in. Use interesting fabrics, textures and accessories while keeping your palate neutral. A few interesting pieces are always better than overdoing it with too many nick knacks! Last but not least when you are working with a room that is limited in space add mirrors in key places to “open” the room up and give it the feel that it is really larger than it is.

A simple white bedroom can be a stunner! To get this look keep the theme throughout the entire room in whites or neutrals that blend. All your big focal pieces should be white for instance the chaise in this picture. You could substitute that with 2 white chairs. The bedding all white with an interesting texture for the duvet or comforter. Your furniture should be an opposing color to add extra “pop” to your color selection. Any color paint on the walls will work with white depending on your personality. As always you should have a few floral arrangements with greenery in them to add to this look, a few candles and clean line lamps will add extra interest. If you want some color, pick that up in prints on the wall or pillows scattered throughout the room!
