Staging Tip: 4 Ways to Lighten Up For Spring!

Staging Tip: 4 Ways to Lighten Up For Spring!

      Ditch the heavy curtains! The spring is no time for heavy curtains; Lighten up a bit with blinds, white sheer curtains, or completely unfiltered sun light with open windows- nothing beats that!

     Smell like the season. Embrace the smells of spring flowers instead of warm, fresh baked cookies for open houses. As lovely as the smell of chocolate chip cookies might be, it only intensifies heat in the spring and summer temps.   We love lavender; lilac smells, instead of heavier smells like vanilla, or apple cinnamon.  

      

     Neutrals + pastels. Most staged homes operate safely in within the neutral space. In the spring time, pastels provide the perfect compliment to a neutral base. Try accent pillows in light yellow, light green or blue- just don’t overdue it or else it will look like Easter all season long.

           Love the Outdoors. In the winter, homes for sale can be forgiven for a lack of curb appeal.  With the cold temps, its hard for anything to grow. In the spring time, those excuses won't work.  Some level of curb appeal is expected by most potential homebuyers.  So, go ahead- take a trip to your local garden shop for colorful, seasonal, large petal flowers. A large pot of seasonals on the porch can make a big difference.
