I'thousand here to help. Here are a few unproblematic guidelines specifically geared to habitation staging.

Color counts 

Keep the colour palette of your fabric prints uncomplicated. Limit yourself to two or iii colors per room. The animo directly is towards more than colorful rooms , more than saturated colors , more than strange colors. Don't become in that location. Play it prophylactic with colors that any dwelling buyer could relate to.

Choose neutrals and pastels that are not distractions on a home tour. Your pattern colors should choice up around of the neutral colors in the room. Choose either clear hues or dirty hues. Choose either intense colors or muted pastels , not both.

For case , I'thousand picturing a room with creamy draperies edged in pale xanthous , yellow floral as well as chevron striped pillows , and a xanthous gingham upholstered chair.

Scale is all nearly size , way , as well as placement

Mix big patterns with pocket-sized patterns and something in betwixt. This form of mixing creates a finished , stylish , interesting expect. Mix angular geometrics alongside curvy florals. Mix ombre , ikat , ethnic , too batik prints and with crisp terbaru designs. These kinds of juxtapositions delight the center too take a room to life.

One strategy to make a room await more intentionally designed than thrown together is to function like or identical trims on upholstered pieces , window treatments , lampshades , pillows , too other accessories.
