Staging a Beautiful Bathroom is Easy...
There's a Formula

Staging the bathroom is easy because it's usually small. And critically important, because bathrooms are personal.



Every bathroom has the same basic elements and the same essential requirements for looking sensational to the buyer:

• Cleanliness - it must look, feel, and smell, spotlessly clean

• Repair - The tub, tile, toilet, shower and fixtures must be in good condition. It helps if mirrors, light fixtures and faucets are currently in fashion.

• Color - Paint and colors coordinate with the rest of the house

• Interest - I'll show you how I do it

What Happened in this Room?

• All personal items were removed

• Walls were painted Sherwin Williams Kilim Beige, like the rest of the house

• Art is hung where it's most visible when you enter the bathroom. It reflects nicely in the mirror, providing color and interest

• Towels match the picture
  • A neutral bath towel
  • Contrasting hand towel

• Small pot of greenery on the back of the toilet

What Happened In this Room?

• Although glass doors are not in demand by today's buyer, the value of the property didn't warrant major changes. And these glass doors have a special feature, one half is mirrored

• Red was the accent color used throughout the house, so we brought in a picture of a red rose framed in black, simple but with strong contrast to the all white bathroom

• Towels are black and red taking their cue from the picture

• Small basket of greenery on the back of the toilet

• Red floral adds a nice punch

• Mirror reflects color, greenery and pattern. Bonus!
