Affordable Decorating Accents

Most of us are on a tight budget these days, however there are many ways in which we can enhance any room to achieve a glamorous look with out breaking the bank. Two of my favorite places to shop on a shoestring budget for the house.....especially after you have spent all of your money on back to school stuff is ROSS and HOMEGOODS.

So, if you have the urge to give the house a lift...here are some ideas.
1. The Updated Pillow. Ditch those lumpy little pillows. Revive your sofa with the newer look of larger pillows in square, rectangular and cylindrical shapes.
2. Glass Lamp Bases. We're seeing glass lamp bases everywhere, in shapes that are short, tall, curvy, square, urn-like or conical. Trendy designer lamps like these use to cost a fortune, not any more.
3. Mirrors. It's not a vain thing. Reflect on that. Mirrors open up any space and make it seem larger. They are not just for bathrooms and over the dresser anymore. Go bold, kitchen, den and hallways.
4. The Un-Chandelier. Contemporary dining spaces crave sculptural, clean looking light fixtures. Remember lighting brings vibrancy to any room.
THESE ARE MY DESIGN TID- BITS FOR THE DAY. HAPPY SHOPPING.
