Staging Your Home for Sale:: The Exterior



Today I'm over at Remodeling Guy's place trying to take over his blog and wreck it all up with poor grammar and me butting in all over his post. But if you want to hear what we think about staging the outside of your home for you or for potential buyers, fly on over there and read on up about it.

And remember, staging: it's not just for sellers anymore.

PS: I've started to list the spring collection in the etsy shop.

Ok, I totally had to laugh at the tie a rope to the bushes and yank them out with a truck thing. My hubs so did that to an overgrown tree in the front yard, except he used a tow rope :) Whatever works right? Great tips!

I left a comment over at RG, but felt the need to give you some bloggy love too. Not that you don't have plenty. I posted Indy's room makeover today and there are 2 projects I got off your site. Come over and have a look see.

Ok - off to give Tim some comment love, but did he give himself some on the second comment. Cracking up at that one.

Still think of you, my friend, with the outside front of our house...empty...yep, good thing we don't have any drive bys. Nature covers up a multitude of sins. :)

I have always been very particular about my yard. When we were selling our home, the house across the street tended to be pretty junky. There was old tires put out front for the trash. However, they did not pick them up, so there they stayed for months. We took it upon ourselves to haul these tires away at our own expense. I didn't want any prospective buyers to think that this was a junky neighborhood.
