Guest bedroom ideas

Make your spare bedroom inviting to potential buyers, treat the room to some new linen. If the room is dull paint a feature wall or if you are handy why not try some funky new wallpaper. You will be surprised at the difference a feature wall can make to a bedroom. Open the blinds or curtains and let some light in. If the blinds or curtains are looking tacky get some new ones pre made ones are inexpensive these days, they not only will look more attractive but will help with the overall appearance of the room. Buyers will think great new window furnishings! Nothing to spend in this room

Stress less




Having your home on the market during Christmas can be stressful during the christmas period.
For a little less stress try some de cluttering - look at it as a pre-move declutter, you will be a step ahead when it comes to packing when you have sold.
Prioritise  - You will not have time to de clutter the whole house, I suggest de-cluttering the areas that the potential buyers are going to see.

Clear out the Junk - clear bench tops and top with some fresh flowers or a nice trendy christmas ornament. Try a glass vase filled with colourful xmas balls.

Clean Clean Clean - Nothing more inviting than the smell of a fresh clean home.

An advent calendar made out of little pouches where you can put some goodies in for your family. You can find the pattern and instructions here. Made by Jenny B Harris at the allsorts blog. She is also a great photographer and often has beautiful images on her blog. Here for example... 



Hhmmm for some reason I feel like hot chocolate.

Outdoor Cheer




Draw attention to the front door, place two pots with Christmas bush either side of your front door and add some pretty decorations, instant wow! Don't forget to clean away the cobwebs and remove the old dead plants that have sat their for months. 

First impressions are so very important.

Save a penny or two!




Don't spend a fortune on Christmas table decorations instead use some of your favourite objects from  around the home and give them a Christmas makeover.

For example:  Tie some red ribbon around a favourite vase and make little place cards out of some left over wrapping paper.
