Staging Notes
2425 Miner Street, Idaho Springs
Overall
Pre-pack as many of your personal items as possible
Anything remaining in closets/cabinets should be as neat and tidy looking as possible
Remove all evidence of pets (dog bowls, leashes, dog food, etc.)
Living Room
Remove chair
Place a plant in front of the internet box/cords
Clear our everything from under the stairs
Remove the items from next to the stove, even the charcoal, to ensure it looks nice and open
Remove everything from the top of the tall cabinet
We didn’t talk about this, but it might be worth trying to center the entertainment center between the two sconces (if this ends up being really awkward looking, you can ignore!)
Dining Room/Kitchen
Fold down the ends of the table and leave only the two chairs with the arms
Remove trash cans
Push the bar stools a little closer together
Remove everything from the counters (including small appliances) and from the bottom of the island
Remove the mirror (I don’t think there’s a place where it ended up making sense upstairs)
If you have any matching bowls or plates, it could look cute to style them on the open shelving
Remove everything from the shelving in the laundry room as well, leaving only 1-2 items per shelf
Bathrooms
Tuck away all personal items, including toiletries/towels you use regularly
Remove all rugs and bath mats
Completely clear off all surfaces
Consider getting some new, white towels to give the feeling of a hotel
Remove the shelving unit from the upstairs bathroom
Primary Bedroom
Remove the TV and wall mount
Replace the dark out curtains with the lighter curtains that match the other windows
Consider purchasing a plain white comforter to help minimize how large the bed looks
Leave the nightstands (shelves), simply add a plant to the one with nothing on it
Remove the black shelving unit
Move the dresser over so it’s centered under the window
Secondary Bedroom
Remove everything but the day bed and the dresser in the little cubby
Move the desk into the office
Office
Remove as much of the little furniture as possible
Bring the desk from the extra bedroom in and place them side-by-side (with a little space between)
Bring up the other two matching dining chairs
Leave as little as possible on the desks
Consolidate the lizard items as much as possible
Outdoors
Center the dining table and chairs in that area
Move the fire pit over to the other little concrete/brick pad
Move the bench to the left of the door and place the two outdoor chairs under the window tot he right of the front door
