Using Bargain Finds to Create Unique Spaces

July 23, 2013 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

 

This past weekend, I spent some time hanging out at our Island Home and I thought I would get some updated photos of the little office area I created. It is really no more than a corner in one of the bedrooms but my favorite thing about it is my $10 desk. I was going to sand it down and repaint it but that never happened.  All it really needed was a good old fashion scrubbing. I like that it is kind of shabby chic which fits in with the Island vibe of the house.  I love using my bargain finds to create unique spaces that our original to me.  I feel like when I decorate with my thrifted finds I am creating a look that most people will not have because you usually can’t go out and find the exact pieces at a store.

Using Bargain Finds to Create Unique Spaces

 

Everything in this space either came from a thrift store or was a clearance/sale item.  My favorite piece hands down is the ten-dollar desk.  It came from my favorite shop on the Eastern Shore.  It is the perfect size and I like the little center drawer. I also have to say that I like the chair which came from Target many years ago.  It makes for a nice and comfy office chair. I also like the old fashion bell on the desk.  When the Gman was about 3 he was with me on a thrift shopping trip and he loved the shop bell at the register so they gave it to him. I miss those days when he came with me everywhere!

As I am sitting here looking at the photo, I am noticing that all my sea glass is missing from the glass lamp. The same person that stuck that bird statue on my desk probably took the sea glass.  I am  wondering how I missed all of that! I was probably just focused on my $10 desk.

The wall decor came from a thrift shop and the wooden box with the chalkboard top came from TJ Maxx.  I like the driftwood look of it. It usually houses some of my books which are missing as well.  Apparently, I am not very observant when I am taking photos!

I hope you have enjoyed my little office space at my home away from home.

Until Next Time,
