Designed to Sell

It matters not a whit that we're not listing this house for another five months, we've begun the oh so important 'staging'. With a house this big, we need all the headstart we can get.

Not many words necessary here - BEFORE:

Very charming, especially if you have a penchant for dog spit.

Another lovely shot. Likely makes you wish you could lean into the screen and get a whiff!

AFTER:

What you can't see is that I kicked the smelly dogs and their crate down to the basement, washed the nasty bed and made a nice spot for morning coffee and devotions.

I don't know if they'll buy it based on this, but at least they won't be running for the front door the minute they see, and smell, my office!

Just like at my house...the before, I mean.

Actually, we have two crates side by side, but there's still plenty of dog spit.

Yay, you on the re-do. Looks comfy and functional. If those doggies appreciate their kibble, I'm sure they won't mind being relegated to the basement a time or 2. :)

Looks good, Bev.

Now, on to the next project...and the next, and the next...

Happy weekend! :o)

Love and hugs,

Looking good, Bev! Wonder what the pooches thought being relegated to the basement? LOL.

If you're eve my way, I'll let you give me a few pointers on decorating a home. After cooking lessons with Tyler Florence (a la DVR) it is on my list!
