Staging Rental: Charles

We staged this adorable renovated home last week and are so excited about how it turned out! The clients did an excellent job updating every feature and our staging highlighted how the home can be used and brought fresh colors. We know this one won't last long!

Our crew!

So excited to share the new team pictures we took a few weeks ago. The beautiful Heritage Home Builders listing we staged earlier this year served as the perfect back drop. Scroll through below and see the fun pictures our photographer, Haylei, snapped!

A few of our favorites: Pattern Play

It's no secret that we love mixing patterns at House Dressings. Mixing in an on-trend pattern via accent pillows, rugs, towels etc is an easy way to keep a home looking fresh & updated. We've rounded up a few of our favorite ways we've played with mixed patterns below.

Our tip: Vary size, scale & texture when mixing patterns. Just make sure you have at least one consistent element, like color, to keep the look cohesive. 

Morgan Fields Model Home Staging

We are so excited to share pictures of our most recent model home project. We partnered with Manuel Builders but this time took a drive west on 1-10 to Lake Charles to stage a model home in their newest community, Morgan Fields. This home featured their traditional Southern style but with a few modern updates. They asked for a structured Restoration Hardware inspired style that paid homage to the home's Southern roots. We used varying shades of blue throughout the house to tie the look together.

Take a peek below!

Power Staging: Elysian Fields

This power staging is the perfect example of how we work to create a broad appeal to buyers. We added lots of on trend accents & fresh to color to energize the listing. We also edited the furniture arrangement to help define space use as well as maximize square footage. 

Also, never under estimate the power of paint! A fresh coat in a fun color on the front shutters really upped the curb appeal. Click through below to see the transformation! 

A few of our favorites...

Big, small, old, new, hardback, coffee table, vintage, cook book. The list goes on and on. Books are so simple, yet they can really help accessorize a space. We've rounded up a few of our favorite ways we've used books in our staged homes.
