Decorating When You Don’t Have a Million Bucks

Every Cent Counts

When you are on a budget

Haven’t had the good fortune to win the lottery?  Us either!  But that is hardly a deterrent to having a home that looks and feels like a million bucks.  It probably won’t come as a surprise to you that we LOVE Ikea.  They have so many great pieces that can help you make a huge impact in your space with very little $$ invested.

Here are some ideas from this super cool Multi-functional room that we think have serious super star quality!

Add Texture to Your wall

Remember the faux finishes of yesteryears?  They are coming back!

Think outside the box.

A set of drawers can become a shelf and furniture when you stack them and mount them to the wall!

Peg out your space

A simple hook becomes a major hit when you add beautiful texture and art.

Old Makes it Cool

Don’t try to buy everything new.  Look for cool old stuff with patina to balance the modern feel of simple IKEA pieces.

Put the imperfect on Wheels

Pots of paint and bundles of brushes look so much cooler when gathered together.  The wheels mean your space can quickly be transformed from studio to entertainment space!

I spent the morning foraging in the backyard… it I spent the morning foraging in the backyard… it’s bursting with hydrangea, dripping with figs (sadly for us our pet deer have helped themselves to the blueberries and blackberries 😅) but I had this moment as I was filling my vases with my bounty from my own backyard… I just smiled and felt so utterly happy- summer may just be my favorite season after all! 

What is your favorite part of summer?! 

With the weekend ahead we’ve got Prosecco and summer charcuteries on our agenda, plus a few mean rounds of cornhole with the boys! We might even squeeze in lounging in the sun, baking a blueberry crumble (with blueberries from the grocery store!), and just generally unwinding and soaking up these summer days! Happy weekend XxV
