I really don't know how to stage. I feel like I've learned a little over the years but it's still frustrating to me and I often just hate it so much I put some flowers on the piece and call it good ;)

For me personally I love a piece that is simple and well staged. Vignettes are great, but sometimes they can look cluttered with too many items on a piece. I've definitely been guilty of putting too many or too few of items, where it just looks awkward. You live and learn!

So, here are some of the rules I try to follow myself when staging because I think it looks good. I probably shouldn't call then rules, since I just made them up - I'll just say these are the things that go through my head when staging a piece of furniture. I work with a lot of nightstand/end table size pieces as well as mid sized dressers like
