Home Staging Tips For Your Window Treatments
Heed some of these home staging tips for your window treatment!
Go for light, airy treatments. Choose fabrics that are translucent, particularly for shades or sheers. They give you a certain level of privacy, sans completely blocking out the natural light and the view from outside world. If you happen to have a great view of the backyard, or other natural scenery, you want to highlight that to prospective buyers, so stay away from opaque or dark curtains or blinds as much as you can.
Neutral and contemporary fixtures are a good choice. For you to be able to appeal to as many distinct tastes and preferences of prospective home buyers, you want to go for window treatments that are modern and least distracting. Large thick curtain rods, or heavy cornices and valances may appear bulky and so 5 minutes ago. Clean lines that have minimalist designs look fresher and more modern. Loud designs and prints, such as animal type designs, zebra lines, polka dots, or floral prints are not very ideal for home staging since they are only good for some people’s taste but distracting to the rest.
Pre-packaged window treatments are ideal choices. Sewing or starting your own DIY projects for curtains and panels can a heck lot of fun, but not everyone has the spare time in between your day to day responsibilities and other home staging and selling matters. It is easier to visit your local home décor and improvement stores. Such retailers typically have packaged window treatments and décor available that you can buy and install all by yourself.
Blend into the general theme of the home décor. The best\ window treatments will go with the rest of the theme or décor of the rest of your house, rather than hogging attention. If you are going for subdued pastel hues for your living room, for example, window treatments should be light and quiet also, sine anything bright would be visually jarring and distract people who get to view them. Strike a balance between the colors and hues, and zero in on it.
