Still Staging

I hope you all had a great weekend!  

My weekend was downright boring and dull!  

But it was my choice 

because I was nursing a sinus infection 

due to our ever changing weather 

here in the Midwest.  

I tried to stay inside and rest 

but you know how that goes...  

I ended up moving furniture around 

and packing a lot of my dishes that I don't use.  

Mr. Beaux thinks I am crazy 

but my theory is 

that it all has to get packed eventually 

and if I am productive then I feel like 

I am moving forward 

and not stuck in a holding pattern. 

OK, follow along while I lead you 

through the changes...

Remember the pretty china hutch 

that I bought for the Living Room 

and was in the process of refinishing?  

Yeah, well it never got 

much past this stage here.  

Oh Boy!  

I just didn't have a big chunk 

of time to devote to it.  

So, we had a friend come over 

and help us move it out 

to the garage this past week.  

So, then I had a big blank 

wall staring at me...  

I had the sofa up against the wall 

for about a minute and 

that made the wall even larger.  

I put my two Bergere chairs 

on that side of the room 

and searched around for 

artwork for the wall.  

Remember these botanical prints 

that I framed for the kitchen a while back?

They were down in storage 

so I had Mr. Beaux hang them 

up for me on Sunday.  

And just in time too!  

We had another showing Sunday afternoon.  

Didn't he do a great job?  

He was really my hero this weekend!  

He fixed our shower so that it has 

awesome water pressure now, 

painted the messed up ceiling 

in the foyer with an exact 

paint match (not easy to do), 

ran a million errands 

while I was sick 

and brought me chicken soup!  

The height of the pictures balances 

out the fireplace on the other side 

of the room and because they are all in

the same frame they look neat and tidy.

In the photos the wall looks 

much larger than it really is...

I placed my tray table in between 

the two chairs and used 

just a few accessories.  

The power of three!  

Keeping the clutter down is important!  

I selected the blue and white plate 

to bring the colors from the fireplace 

shelves over to this side of the room.  

I placed the plate on the vintage books 

so that the heights would be varied as well.  

The showing on Sunday went well 

according to the feedback.  

But the realtor says that 

"she doesn't know where they are"  

which means that we are still 

in our holding pattern... 

But I will continue to move forward 

by packing more boxes 

(a co-worker brought me a car-full today) 

and de-cluttering...

Until Next Time,

Beaux R'eves,
