"Living in Your Home" Re-Staging - The Master Bedroom

The bed bumps into you as soon as you enter the room.

This Master Bedroom needed a makeover.  My task was to make an appealing and calm retreat with very little budget.  This is the goal of re-staging to re-use, re-purpose, re-arrange and re-organize.  The owners liked the paint colour so this was one of the areas not needed to be looked at.  The layout of the room was awkward.  The bed bumped into you as soon as you entered the room.  Not very inviting.  And as you can see, the bedding colours dated back to the 90"s.  Also, there appeared to be too much stuff everywhere; books and magazines mounted up on the bed-side tables spilling onto the floor and way too much clutter to have the room be the haven they desired.  So the room was stripped down to the bare essentials - just the furniture.

Too much clutter spilling onto the floor.

The bed is now the focal point of this room

The first thing to do was to look at the layout.  What did the homeowners want the focus of this room to be.  To give them a hint, they were shown pictures of other Master Bedrooms and they soon realized that moving the bed around to the far end wall would place it as a welcoming focal point as soon as you entered the room.  The dresser with the triple mirror was then moved around to where the bed used to be and everything was moved down the walls a few feet to effectively utilize more of the room space.  The only purchases that needed to be made were new bedding in a soft sage and new lamps. Other items were re-purposed from other areas of the home.
