So here's the inspiration for this weeks installment of the Look for Less:
I find it odd that I'm drawn to this at all, because I don't care for Rococo style-furniture or metal art, but I love how all of these pieces mesh together. I initially pinned this image when I was looking for inspiration with my former RL polyhedron pendant.
Here's how to get this vibe for far, far less!
A few notes:
- I would look for a great Turkish or Persian rug on eBay and overdye it myself. We've had tremendous luck with Dharma Acid Dyes.
- The slipcovers for the Parsons chairs were from World Market, but you can get simple Parsons chairs at Ikea for around $50 a piece - a steal!
- I'd also go in favor of framing my own dried palm fronds, which you could do easily with Ikea frames.
- Even though the console isn't the right color (right now), it was such a deal and has the lines I was looking for and is easily fixed with primer and paint.
For as much as one of the geometric Suzanne Kasler pendants in the inspiration picture, we've put together a similar look and feel!!
What room do you want to recreate?
