So most of you know I just moved into my new house and we are definitely on a budget for decorating. I decided to take it upon myself to diy my house starting with the dining room since that is a large focal point for our open floor plan. I started with the gold chandelier, which took me forever to find but when I saw the Anthropologie version my heart skipped a beat, seriously thats what happens to me when something is meant to be mine. The Anthro one is WAY more than I wanted to spend so I looked around and found an equally impressive runner up from a company called Stimulight for $350. The quality is really nice and the gold looks perfect, not too shiny.

Second I wanted to do a hairpin legged table. I was going for a midcentury modern feel in my house and thought the simple table would be perfect. I had thrifted an old table and chairs so I decided to take the top of and sand and stain it. I then ordered the legs from tablelegs.com for $25 per leg. Next were the chairs, I painted the metal areas and recovered the seats with a staple gun. It was really easy, you just need to make sure the gold paint is completely dry. Last were the details, I wanted a cowhide rug but I didn’t want to spend more than 200 dollars on it, most are around $350+ so this took a while. I saw that Ikea had some but I wanted the grey colours to pull through and they only had a brown or black one. Randomly when I stopped in one day, they had this grey one sitting there with the others. It was made for me!

I then picked up two of their largest frames $25 each and went home to my little marble tissue paper art. I found these gems from a random website called Papermojo. They make all kinds of paper and these marbled prints are actually tissue paper with silver and gold in them. A perfect way for me to pull in my mixed metals. Lastly, for the table stuff, where else would I go then Target for some cute little items so I bought a little greenery in a glass pot. Then I wanted a bit of geode so I got one from Urban Outfitters to add a touch of colour. I then dug through the boxes in the garage and found the little gold tray from my Grandpa’s estate sale to put it all on and viola! it was finished all under $900!
