Some Things That Home Stagers Do To Your Home Closet That Is Absolutely Free

When it comes to redesigning or renovating your home closets and cabinets, usually home stagers are called in to do the job. They are experts when it comes to designing and/or renovating home closets and cabinets into functional ones while retaining space and being stylish enough to fit the room.

However, not all homeowners can afford the price of the services of home stagers. Therefore, many wonder if they can learn the tips and tricks that most professional home stagers do on their end.  

According to Apartment Therapy, below are some common things that home stagers do when it comes to redesigning and/or renovating your home closets and cabinets:

  1. Remembering the 80/20 rule - When it comes to closet space, you may want to keep this rule in mind, especially if you are going to sell your home. Most stagers usually utilize the closet space, wherein 20% of it is only used to show that a closet is spacious.
  2. Having an illusion of space - If the first rule cannot be applied, then this trick will help to get the job done. You can make the closet look like having more space than usual by utilizing the space available. The less is more in this case.
  3. The visual impact is also important - If there is something visually busy in your closet, the best thing to do about it is to get rid of it being there. Doing so will remove unnecessary things that can be a visual obstruction of the space available in a closet.
  4. Organize your accessories neatly - Accessories can be a hassle to one's space in their home. It is highly advised for you to keep them neatly organized, in order to avoid cluttering and occupying the available space in your closet.
