Staging an Empty House - before and after

As I have mentioned before, we have an empty house we are trying to sell. 

No fun.

This past weekend we hosted an Open House with our realtor.

I took a few items to "stage" the house.

Here is a photo of the master bathroom before I staged it....

Super - Boring.

And after....

A plant, candles, something shiny, and hand towels.  That is all.

I really like the lime green Creeping Jenny and the bright hand towel.  A little color sure helps!

And here is the downstairs powder room.....

Same thing - a plant, a hand towel, and soap.  Nothing major, but this little bit certainly made the space feel more appealing.

Next is the guest bath....

My zinnias have started blooming!  These are the first few........

Putting some live plants in an empty house just gives the rooms some "life."


Plus, you know how I like some "color!"  The zinnias add some eye-catching color to this neutral home!

I also added some ferns to frame the front door............

I completely forgot to take a photo of the kitchen!  I added some flowers and a cute kitchen towel to the sink area.

I think those small additions helped give the empty house some character!
