Accessories make the room and its often very pricey to find accessories that match at affordable prices. Think of all the accessories you may put into a room to give it its finishing touches.

  • Candle holders
  • Trays
  • Bowls
  • Vases
  • Throw Pillows
  • Picture frames
  • Area rugs
  • and so much more

Here are some tips to transform accessories:

  • Go to second hand stores to buy some pillar candle holders  > then spray paint these in your favorite color
  • Make your own custom pillows
  • Buy cheap wood picture frames at second hand stores (Goodwill, Salvation Army, & Church thrift stores) > spray paint the frames to take on a whole new look like this one here
  • Buying older solid wood furniture (once again at second hand stores, garage sales, and from Craigslist) then sand & re-paint or stain in a desired color
  • Make your own fancy cork board follow the directions here
  • Have a favorite photo you would like to have as a focal point consider having it enlarged to be made into wall art – check out your local photo stores and EZ Print
