Home staging is all about presenting potential buyers with their dream home. You can’t rely on all buyers to have the imagination to see your house’s potential. The master bedroom is the owner’s retreat, especially if they have kids. Make sure the master bedroom is peaceful. White, cream, grey, and blue are the best colours for master bedroom staging.
Keep in mind that neutral colours for walls and pops of colours in accents are the best way to go when staging or decorating a home. This way the look of the room can be easily changed if desired by the new homeowners.
Master Bedroom tips:
No Clutter:
Absolutely no clutter… anywhere. I feel like I always mention decluttering.
Of course, your home’s new buyers will accumulate clutter as we all do. But in the idea of the home they are picturing in their head, they won’t have any clutter. Make this picture-perfect dream closer to reality and remove all or most of the clutter in the bedrooms.
Take a couple of boxes and fill them with your trinkets and random things, tape them up and stick them in the attic.
Keep the bedroom looking like, well, a bedroom. That means any items not related to a peaceful night’s sleep should be relocated.
Clean Closets:
The people who are viewing your house are going to look everywhere, and I mean everywhere. Closet space is extremely important when purchasing a home.
Clean out your closet and organise it to the best of your abilities. This will make your closet seem bigger and show the buyers how much it can hold.
Consider packing away some of your lesser-used clothing items to make some extra space in your closet while staging for the open house.
Natural Light:
Draw the curtains and open the blinds, natural light is the best lighting there is! No matter the room, an opened curtain will sell a house better than a closed one.
You can use a sheer curtain with another curtain on top that is drawn to the side if privacy is a concern.
Install floor-to-ceiling curtains to make the windows appear larger and add the illusion of more height to the room. This is a great trick interior designers use to make the homes they style look more elegant and luxurious.

Perfectly Made Bed:
For the ultimate cosy and homey feel, make sure your bed is perfectly made and magazine-worthy.
Two to four regular-sized pillows, and up to four additional throw pillows to complete the look. Never exceed 8 pillows for any bed size. If you have more than 8, toss a few on the guest bed while your house is showing as to not distract the prospective buyers.
Hide Wires:
Exposed wires are not only distracting, but they can also be dangerous, especially if someone is wandering your home and doesn’t know the cord is there. Purchase some neutral-colored cord covers and hide any cords that are travelling throughout your bedrooms.
You can also simply remove the wires during the open house or showings and place the wires in a drawer or box for safekeeping until the showing is over.
Simple Furniture:
Stick with just one or two small accessories on the bedside tables..
Having at least one dresser, if not two, in every bedroom is ideal. Nightstands on each side of the beds if possible, and a stool, bench, or chair if there is room.
BONUS TIP
A home staging company will usually include the ordering and installation of furniture and accessories leaving you with absolutely nothing to worry about. Think about adding the cost of home staging into your selling costs, you won’t be sorry when you see the return on your investment.
