When styling your home for sale, it’s a great opportunity to buy a few new pieces that will make your current home look smart and your new home even better.
We’ve put together a list of our top 10 home styling pieces to pack up and take with you when you move.
- Decorative throw pillows: Add a pop of colour and texture to your couch or bed with decorative throw pillows. They can instantly update the look of a room and create a cosy atmosphere.
- Wall art: Choose artwork that complements your decor and home, or frame some posters to add interest and add personality to your space.
- Indoor plants: Greenery brings life and freshness to your home, particularly in the cooler winter months when it isn’t so lush outdoors. Incorporate indoor plants of different sizes and types to add a touch of nature and improve air quality. If you don’t have a green thumb, consider fake plants.
- Mirrors: Hang a statement mirror or arrange a collection of smaller mirrors for a decorative touch. Mirrors not only serve a practical purpose but also create the illusion of more space and reflect light.
- Area rugs: Choose a rug that complements your furniture and enhances the overall colour scheme and style of the room. Area rugs define spaces and add a sense of warmth and comfort to rooms.
- Lamps: Lighting plays a crucial role in setting the mood of a space. Select stylish table or floor lamps that provide both functional and aesthetic value, adding ambience to your living areas.
- Decorative vases: Filling some vases with fresh flowers and greenery will instantly elevate the look of a room. Choose vases in various shapes, sizes and materials to suit your decor style.
- Decorative storage baskets: Keep your space organised and stylish with decorative storage baskets. They are practical for storing items like blankets and cushions while adding texture and visual interest to shelves or floors.
- Fresh towels and toiletries: Crisp white towels will make your bathroom look fresher, so update these before your open homes. Clear away all your toiletries and old toothbrushes and leave just a couple of attractive bottles on display.
- Coordinated bedding: Update your bedroom by investing in high-quality, coordinated bedding. Choose a comfortable duvet or comforter, matching pillow cases, and accent pillows to create a luxurious and inviting space. Spotlessly clean white pillowcases always look good.
Consider these items as a starting point, and feel free to mix and match to create a space that reflects your unique style and personality while showcasing your home in its best light.
