Things You Can Make With A Glue Gun (Unique mirror frames, lampshades, swimwear, shoes, and even hair extensions!)

Oh the things you can do and make with a hot glue gun...
And I've tried them all. These projects not only produce professional results from hot glue adherence, but hold up over time...Yes even the swimwear (Hot glue can get wet and cold water washed, just DO NOT put in the dryer.)

Do-It-Yourself Home Staging Tips for Selling a Fixer-Upper or a Problem Home

#1
Problem: No Large/Master Closet                                                                               
Solution: Make One
Solution Execution: No or a small master closet is a deal breaker for many home buyers. If you find yourself losing prospects because of the lack of master closet space in the home you’re selling, consider creating a “nook” of space that would make sense as a master closet. Remember: It doesn’t have to be a full-fledged, functional master closet, it just has to help prospective buyers look beyond the problem of not having a master closet and envision what they could do to solve the problem.
1. Decide which room can best be converted into a closet or which area can be best separated from the master bedroom with a divider. Does the house have an extra room, study or loft near the master bedroom, or is the master bedroom large enough where some of its space could be used as a closet?

If the house does have a room near the master bedroom that can be converted into a master closet without devaluing the home, you are in the best situation for solving this problem. If not, then you’ll have to get a little creative with where you can take space away without throwing off the entire aesthetics and flow of the room. If going with the option of creating a room within a room, you want to be able to separate and enclose the closet space with curtains or a room divider so assess the foundation of the room. Is there a section of the bedroom beyond what looks like a wide doorway where you can install curtain rods? Or do you have to look into a room divider? What is going to be best for the room’s layout and design style?

2. Invest in one or two rolling, clothes racks from The Container Store or Home Depot along with some shelving that is easy to assemble and does not have to be installed or cause damage to any walls.

3. Rest a large full length mirror against a wall and use a dresser or small end table to offer more storage.

4. Place a rug down in the middle of the space or where you may designate the “changing area” like in front of the mirror. Rugs placed strategically will break-up a space nicely.

Minute Staging - Must Do Home Staging Tactics That Cost Nothing and Only Take a Minute

MINUTE STAGING


Meridian Filing & Storage1. Store most of your stuff
- Consider it a head-start on packing. Chances are, every room is currently over-accessorized and over-cluttered, as far as staging goes. For a rule of thumb, keep all surfaces adorned with only 3 items/decorations. Don’t assume bed-side tables, closet drawers or any place is off-limits to prospective buyers. Pack it up and get it out.


2. If you cannot hide electrical cords, store the electronics
