Let the light in. Raise the shades. Open the blinds. Pull back the curtains. Bright, open rooms feel larger and more inviting.
Dark rooms feel small and gloomy.
Let fresh air in. Get rid of odors that may be unfamiliar or unpleasant. People are most often offended by odors from tobacco, pets, cooking and musty or sour laundry. Fresh flowers and potpourri can be used to your advantage. Other smells that attract positive attention include fresh baked bread and cinnamon.
