I myself, live in a small cottage, albeit not far from the sea but very simple, nothing like this lovely home. However I am re-decorating on a very tight budget and made it into a welcoming home without having lots of money to do so. This includes making my own linen headboards and re-finishing some furniture to get the look I want.<br /><br />When you see something you like, there are ways and means to re-create a look without it costing a fortune. Chalk paint is a magical ingredient that you can use to do up old or new pieces of second hand furniture to create a coastal look for next to nothing. Also with regards to the painting, yes expensive but again, if you wanted something similar you could re-create this look on a store bought canvas with acrylic paints. I am an artist myself, I do plan to create a post on how to make a painting without having artists skills, so please look out for it :)<br /><br />LeeLee Caroline - A World of Inspirationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12775174736286159146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-657584931582605265.post-39546617161359924892014-08-05T14:21:43.285+12:002014-08-05T14:21:43.285+12:00Lee, I love the spaces you choose to feature becau...Lee, I love the spaces you choose to feature because your aesthetic is so light and lovely. I'm still new to this whole blogging thing and have to fine tune a way to ensure I see the blogs I really enjoy on a regular basis. I looked back at your last few posts and I really see a specific aesthetic emerge that I very much enjoy. I'm not sure if it's where I am located (outside New York), but so many people seem to be moving towards dark wood (especially in the kitchen) and the lighter colors (or non-colors) really resonate so much more with me. The kitchen here is particularly wonderful... :-)Lory at Designthusiasmhttp://designthusiasm.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-657584931582605265.post-14270793849349135802014-08-05T10:04:40.489+12:002014-08-05T10:04:40.489+12:00Beautiful home.
