We Gave a Home Stager $100 at Anthropologie — Here Are the MCM Items She Bought
Whether you’re staging your home to sell it or simply styling a vignette to liven up your living room, you know the challenge of trying to pull things together on a budget. Often, the answer is to turn to vintage pieces, but that can take time, energy, and effort — things people don’t always have in abundance.
Sometimes, you just want to be able to go to a store and pick up a few items that will pull your room together magically, making it seem as if they were also perfectly curated and collected. But you also don’t want to spend a bundle doing that.
Luckily, no one knows how to quickly bring a room together with a few choice styling pieces better than a professional home stager. Sally Julien, principal at Modernous, a Seattle- and Palm Springs-based staging firm with a mid-century aesthetic, has a talent for arranging items in a way that feels sculptural, minimalist, and storied.
We tasked her with spending $100 at Anthropologie to totally revive a tired room. “I wanted to find things that made a big impact together. I thought about the color story and how they would create a focal point in the room,” says Julien.
Here’s what’s on her list.
