"Had a solid oak dining set sitting in my dark basement. Nobody on Craigslist was interested because the photos looked terrible. Brightened them up and removed the basement mess - sold the next weekend for $400. Same table, better photos." @BasementSalvage
Built for Craigslist Furniture Sellers
Furniture is the hardest thing to photograph for Craigslist. You can't pick up a couch and carry it to a clean backdrop. Most furniture photos are taken in dim basements, cluttered rooms, or garages where the piece looks far worse than it is. EditThisPic fixes the lighting and removes the mess so buyers can see what the furniture actually looks like.

How to AI Craigslist Furniture Photo Editor
-
Photograph your furniture
Take photos with your phone showing the full piece. Get a straight-on shot plus detail angles. Don't worry about the messy room or dark basement - EditThisPic fixes that.
Lighting fix: 15 seconds. Full cleanup with background: 30-40 seconds. -
Describe your edit
Type 'brighten to show true wood color and condition' or 'remove room clutter, show on neutral background.' The AI understands furniture photography needs like dim rooms and color correction.
For dark basement photos, combine: 'brighten significantly, fix yellow lighting, clean up background' for maximum improvement. -
Check color and condition accuracy
Verify that wood tones, fabric colors, and overall condition are accurate. Craigslist buyers will check in person - the photo should match reality. Stains, scratches, and wear should remain visible.
-
Include dimensions context
Edit multiple angles. Include a photo showing scale - next to a chair, doorway, or common object. Mention dimensions in your listing. Craigslist furniture buyers need to know if it fits.
Photograph from the same height as the furniture for the most accurate perspective.

When Things Go Wrong
Furniture legs got removed with floor
Why: Thin legs on similar-colored flooring confuse AI boundaries.
Always check legs after any background or floor editing.
Wood color still looks wrong
Why: The AI partially corrected the color but didn't fully fix the cast.
further correct the color - the wood should be natural oak/cherry/walnut, not yellow or orange
Name the specific wood type for better color correction.
Room looks unrealistically clean
Why: AI cleaned too aggressively, making the setting look fake.
keep a natural, realistic room setting - just remove obvious clutter, not everything
A naturally tidy room looks more trustworthy than a sterile environment.
Furniture proportions look distorted
Why: Wide-angle phone lens distorted the furniture shape.
Step back and zoom in when photographing furniture to reduce lens distortion.
Fabric texture lost in brightening
Why: Aggressive brightening can wash out subtle textures.
Add 'preserve texture' when brightening upholstered furniture.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I fix photos taken in a dark basement?
Yes. This is one of the most common furniture photo problems. Type 'significantly brighten and fix dim lighting' and EditThisPic will enhance visibility dramatically. For best results, turn on all available lights before photographing, but the AI can rescue even very dark shots.
Should I show stains and wear on used furniture?
Yes. Craigslist buyers will see the furniture in person. Hidden damage wastes everyone's time and kills trust. Clean up the background and fix the lighting, but keep all wear, stains, and condition visible. Honest photos get better buyers.
What background works best for furniture on Craigslist?
A clean room setting works best for large furniture - it helps buyers judge size and imagine the piece in their home. Pure white works for smaller items. Neutral grey is a good middle ground.
How do I show furniture dimensions in photos?
Include a common object for scale - a chair next to a table, or photograph near a doorway. Always include dimensions in your Craigslist listing text. Multiple angles help buyers judge size.
Does this work for appliances too?
Yes. EditThisPic works on any item - refrigerators, washers, dryers, ovens, and all appliances. Fix the dark kitchen or garage lighting and show the appliance condition clearly.
How many furniture photos should I post on Craigslist?
At least 4: full front view, different angle, close-up of material and condition, and any wear or damage. More photos with honest condition details mean fewer tire-kicker messages.
