I’m delighted to be part of Bairstow Eves ‘Styled to Sell’ series, the ultimate guide to styling your home. I share my tips on how to style your dining room before opening your door to buyers.

In part 1 of ‘Dining room to den’ I described how we turned our old dining room into our perfect study / home office by customising an Ikea kitchen worktop and storage units. In the second part of the series I’ll describe how we completed the look with carefully chosen accessories, artwork and soft furnishings.
