Feng Shui Tips – Living Rooms – Part 2

Saturday, July 10th, 2010

In Part 2 of Madonna’s Feng Shui Tips for Living Rooms, Madonna shares seven (7) more Feng Shui Tips regarding how you may use Feng Shui to improve the positive energy (ch’i) flow of your living rooms:

Living Room

1) The living room should be welcoming and reflect your personality and interests.

You should feel totally relaxed and comfortable in this room, and so should your guest.

2) Many of you only use the living room for special occasions. This is not a good thing in feng shui.

The living room is an important part of the house and if not being used properly, the result will be that other areas of your life will be constricted.

Make this room comfortable and pleasant and use it regularly. If you are not doing the already, you will notice a big difference in the quality of your life as soon as you do.

3) The ch’i should flow freely through the living room. This encourages the family to spend quality time together. The ch’i also makes your guests feel relaxed and comfortable.

4)  The placement of furniture should also be done to allow the ch’i to flow freely, creating feelings of warmth and companionship in the room.

People should be able to move around the furniture freely.

L-shaped arrangements of furniture are not good, unless they are in a corner of the room. This is because they create a shar when located in the middle of the room.

5) The furniture should be arranged with care in the room. If the furniture is placed largely on one side of the room, the room will appear unbalanced and lop-sided. This can lead to feelings of constriction. Anyone sitting in this room will feel vaguely uncomfortable, but not know why.

6) People also feel uncomfortable when they are setting with their backs to the door. Consequently, chairs and sofas should be arranged so that the people using them do not have their backs to the doors. If your rooms does not allow this, it is considered good manners to offer your guests chairs that face the door, and sit in one that has its back to the door yourself.

7) Ideally, the head of the house should sit in a chair that faces the main entrance to the room. The people doing the entertaining should not sit with their backs towards a window, as this indicates a lack of support. A solid wall behind them increases confidence and makes them naturally more outgoing and hospitable.

I hope all of my Feng Shui tips will help you encourage more positive energy into your home and life!

Testimonial – Real Estate Staging

Sunday, June 7th, 2009
Real Estate Owned (REO)

The Testimonial for Real Estate Staging on the sale of the home in Palm Bay.

For those of you that do not know this …

I just sold my own home! :)

This is a great story because it is a perfect example that Staging works.

My home that sold was a villa.

It was not in foreclosure and it was not a short sale.

We just wanted to move closer to my husbands work.

Being a villia it had two other one on the same street for sale that was just like it.

and …

The other two were well under my asking price.

The Realtor had wanted us to lower the price, but we said no!

So I asked my husband if he really wanted to move. Now I mean REALLY !!!!!!!!.

He looked at me and like I was crazy and said “Yes”.

So …

I told him them I was going to get serious about selling it.

So …

I started Staging it.

I walked through it with the eyes I use if I were at work on a clients home.

I staged the home and I made a Real Estate Marketing Flyer (that you can also get from me for your home).

And …

In just three weeks the house was sold! :)

My realtor and the buyers realtor could not believe it!

But both now see Staging in a new light! ;)

By the way I did not lower my price!
