Reclaiming Home has started to offer home staging. Instead of buying a bunch of new things or renting furniture, I use mainly what you already own. I edit rooms, filling in the gaps with thrifted or new items. The first home staging Reclaiming Home did was a great success due to the excellent realtor they used, Susan Horon from Royal Lepage Noralta, and the changes made to their home. They received multiple offers and got over their asking price. Last week I showed you the entryway, front living room, and dining room. Today I am going to show you the bedrooms. The name of the game in these rooms was editing. First up, their daughter’s bedroom. In this room there were really appealing existing features: a built-in bed and built-in closet/desk area. It is a small room so having these features built in allows the room to feel spacious. One of the simple things we did purchase was an inexpensive plain white duvet cover. It helped the pink not feel too overwhelming because everything else was neutral.

This section was only editing and styling. Everything that is styled was already on the shelves, I just used them in different ways.

The changes in the last photo are really small but make a big impact. I removed everything from her nightstand, two pictures from the gallery wall, and the duvet cover. It would be easy to dismiss each of these as small changes but putting them all together helped the room start to really shine. Let’s move on to their boys' shared bedroom.

All we did in this room was edit, but doing that made a big impact. Removing the large LEGO table and all the toys from the bed area makes the room feel very large.
