Selling The House~Staging the Kitchen Hearth Room

I know you all have seen 

my Kitchen and Hearth Room 

a million times!  

When we decided to list the house 

I decided it was time 

to make some big changes.  

I needed the room to look as large 

and spacious as possible for potential buyers!  

Can you see the changes?  

I took away the long farmhouse table 

and the black dish cupboard 

and replaced them with this 

glass table and bench.  

It was actually a lot of 

trial and error one weeknight.  

The light fixture was hung 

in an awkward location 

and was never centered 

when the farmhouse table sat here.  

Mr. Beaux was convinced 

that if we put the round glass table here 

and centered it, 

that there would be too much space 

left in the corner of the room.  

We tried a lot of different combinations 

before he finally agreed 

to help me move in the round glass table. 

But look, it seems as if it as always been here!  

And it makes the room look so much larger.  

I do so love this kitchen!  

I am going to miss it for sure!  

I tried to keep everything pretty simple for staging.  

I had fabric for pillows all ready to sew 

but I ran out of time before pictures.  

So I ran over to Stein Mart 

the night before and found 

some that would do for the moment.  

Then...

Be still my heart!  

Miss Kim from Savvy Southern Style 

Instagramed that Pottery Barn 

was having a sale on pillow covers.  

I RAN over there 

and found these wonderfully perfect pillows!  

Thanks Kim! 

Look at these gorgeous pillows!  

 And they were less expensive 

than the "These will do" pillows!  

YAY!  

I'm still working on 

the pillow arrangement for the bench.  

I will have to switch out these fall pillows 

for something more wintery.

And even though I am taking all of 

the Stein Mart pillows back 

I am keeping the cute red and white 

grain sack place mats 

that I found during my late night shopping spree!

Won't they look too cute for Christmas?

My sconces that I ordered finally came in.... 

And they were the WRONG ones!  

Of course, it was the day before pictures 

so I reluctantly agreed to take them 

and hang them anyway! 

It isn't that I hate them, 

it's just not what I ordered.  

At the lighting shop where I bought them 

they order the lights and then 

customize them themselves.  

They customize this particular light two ways, 

with the glass as you see here 

and with a candle slip 

which is the way that I ordered it.

Something like this...  

I had adorable black shades all ready 

to place on the top too!  

But, sometimes you just have to roll with it, right!!!  

I'll show you more of the listing pictures 

because they just do such a great job.  

And, my house may never be this clean again!

Now back to cleaning out closets!

Until Next Time,

Beaux, R'eves,

Sweet Dreams!
