These four home materials will look better with age.

Copper

Eventually, copper will oxidize, and its shiny dark orange appearance will develop a distinguished look with shades of blue and green.

Terracotta

When you decide to splurge on beautiful handmade terracotta for your home, you can rest assured that it will endure.

Reclaimed Wood

Scuffs and scratches that developed over time tell the story of its past life and eventually turn into an inimitable patina.

Natural Stone

When your stone takes on a weathered look, the texture will become smoother and develop a soft luster that many people find desirable.

Take these essential steps to stage a luxurious bathroom…

Fresh Towels & Mats

Keep an assortment of neatly folded towels on display, along with a clean bath mat.

Aromatic Appeal

Candles or essential oils will be sure to greet buyers with a pleasant fragrance. Choose something fresh, like eucalyptus or lavender.

Update the Fixtures

Making a few updates goes a long way. If the hardware feels dated, it might be time for a stylish new faucet or heavenly rain shower to impress buyers.

Depersonalize

Put away all of the personal items, like grooming items, makeup, and brushes. Instead, create a curated selection of brand new items that havent been used.
