Everyone knows that it is important to clear out the clutter and personal items when getting your home ready to sell. However, it is important to not make the home have a sterile appearance, but a warm and inviting appearance. Add a plate of fresh baked cookies or bowl of fresh fruit on the kitchen counter or island. Add vases of fresh flowers to dining tables and side tables. Add plush, fluffy white bath robes to the bathroom to create a spa like feel.
