What towel colors work best for bathroom staging?

White towels are universally appealing and create a spa-like, clean impression. Neutral tones like gray or beige also work well. Avoid bold colors unless they complement the existing tile or fixtures perfectly.

How much should I add to stage a bathroom?

Keep it minimal and spa-like. Fluffy towels, a plant, and a few attractive accessories are enough. The goal is to add warmth without hiding counter space or making the bathroom feel cluttered.

Can staging help an outdated bathroom?

Yes! While staging cannot change fixtures, spa-like accessories, fresh white towels, and greenery can shift focus from dated elements to the overall atmosphere and potential.

Should I stage all bathrooms in a listing?

Yes, stage all bathrooms including powder rooms and secondary baths. Each bathroom is a selling point, and staging shows buyers the home has been cared for throughout.
