Christy's Dining Room

I think this before and after is a great example of staging a home. The first picture looks alright, there's some nice furniture and interesting elements in the room. But truth be told, it looks more or less like a place to toss your purse, not show off. 

 But the second pic, wow! Not a lot has changed, the basic layout remains the same. But with the added pops of color and the graphic black and white fabrics, it definitely grabs your attention and says "Look at me!" 

Glad to oblige.
