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!

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!

Guys! I genuinely believe that creating a beautiful and magical space doesn’t have to break the bank! A few key budget friendly purchases and styling hacks can completely transform a space! From Amazon to Target to flea markets and Wayfair, we brought together a space that our son, Parker, will love!
