Trash to Treasure

Even on a budget I love to decorate. My decorating style? Neutral with splashes of accent color, random perfectly-imperfect, and definitely funky junky. Lately I’ve been pretty obsessed with visiting the local flea market. It can be a bit overpriced and kinda trashy, but going there is always an adventure sometimes I can find awesome stuff.

Combine cool stuff with a bit of creativity and Wah-laaa! I give you:

Super cool vintage-y (and totally falling apart book):

Rusty iron star:

Using the pages from the super-cool-vintage-y-and-totally-falling-apart book plus scrapbook paper and old buttons:

Pages from an old etiquette book on table manners (modge podged to a canvas) plus some ugly-but-somehow-inspire-me wooden utensils: (tutorial here)

How fun are these vases? And I go weak over barnwood frames.

And I LOVE my paint-peeling window:

What’s your decorating style? Inspire me :) .
