Of Course You Can!
Repurpose and Recreate Elements
Sand down an old bookshelf, chest, or other piece of
furniture, paint it or stain it, and recreate or repurpose it into
something new.
Visit yard sales, flea markets, and thrift stores to find new elements for your room.

Make a Change
Change the fabric on your dining room chairs. Simply visit your local fabric store for some clearance fabric. Remove the fabric on the existing chairs and staple
the new fabric. In just a few hours, you will have an
entirely new look for your dining room and it will cost
you very little.
Choose a Few New Accessories
Whether pillows, knick knacks, pictures, frames, or another accessory, a small change can make a big difference.
You don’t have to spend a fortune to have a beautiful home. Simply think outside the box and create a home that you will
be proud to call your own.
