Feng shui and staging are similar – it is all about placement. Having a home that oozes harmony and energy can create a positive space. If you are not familiar with the art of feng shui, our Anne Winch Real Estate Team has some ideas where you can create this calmness in your home environment. You will also notice that staging and feng shui are very similar.

Feng shui means air and water. While we will stage your home there are some feng shui ideas you can do to add welcomeness to your home. Feng shui uses the following elements to create balance: wood, earth, metal, fire, and water. Try to add each of these to your rooms.

Make some room and clear the space

Your living room and kitchen are often gathering spaces for family and friends. You want these spaces to be balanced. Open your front door for a few minutes to allow the air and energy to flow through. Open a few windows to allow the air in and clear out any odors.

Clean any windows to allow the light to shine in.

Remove clutter

Don’t feel that every corner must have something in it. Remove excess furniture to allow the energy to flow through your rooms. If you have too many items like furniture and belongings in a room, this will give the effect that you lead a stressful, cluttered life.

Create balance with the elements and shape

The balancing of the elements is very effective in feng shui. Here is how you can create this balance in your home.

  • Earth: Can be used in neutral colours in your home and add flat or square shapes.
  • Metal: Use metallic objects of spheres or round shapes to meld with metallic colours.
  • Water: Vary wavy shapes mimicking water or darker blue colours to your décor.
  • Wood: Add blue or green shapes or the touch of wood to your home.
  • Fire: Enjoy a splash of red or triangular shapes.

It doesn’t matter if you add some or many feng shui ideas, together with home staging, your home will create an aura that will attract many buyers to your home. When we stage your home, we also want light, less clutter, and neutral décor like the art of feng shui.
