Pull out the lower table when you need an extra surface for holding drinks or reading material, then tuck it away when you're done. On the lower shelf, a stylish fabric covered bin keeps DVDs accessible but contained.</span></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaSPw47lMFQ6sdoHq5CBs9BaPz2D1ww626eCJjwqQ3VkCSnrMN9Uu5zHfo9iTRFzdmybaiU3SSe0swnOphZyW80gN1RUIk2PkmrD1X32_enzU0WKYT_LUDlEDjuaGL2RWEW9fUc9l5zwE/s1600/Elegant-Decorating-Ideas-for-Small-Spaces-with-Budget-2.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Set a casual, family friendly mood for meal times by mixing and matching chair styles. In this dining room, a bench accommodates multiple people and takes up less space than a group of individual chairs. The pieces around the table can easily segue into the living room for hosting a crowd. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhD8XS1BWFny6MBPXrXtBqHdfhwCnJi2uhdrkizlUCbwFmlFDcLO6s_IkkOzd7MvHQF8KGiDJFQHmuOgbQAaBz5WEwoLohfhEkFUYVcN5gmASdfPi6kX_XrEtz6Goa_O_NZu6RcSfbylZc/s1600/Elegant-Decorating-Ideas-for-Small-Spaces-with-Budget-3.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In an open living room, create subtle division with a shelving unit. This floor to ceiling bookshelf separates the open floor plan into two distinct rooms while offering ample display space. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhotDY56G6LdbzB0av3eJLhcVo7-wgXDRnp1H7sx3HlySj-Fc1P6lfXl0aklgruAXcQSE7vYKbiHLndqMCFhsbz5VEMS87m8UZQWGdP39w5VJ8yRGkZFtmy1W6I0sFh5K-zAUpX18qkNJ0/s1600/Elegant-Decorating-Ideas-for-Small-Spaces-with-Budget-4.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Transform the often-unused space at the top of the stairs into a destination. Built in bench seating capitalizes on the sunny window of this second floor landing, creating a cozy reading retreat. Divided compartments under the bench cushion provide clever storage for reading material. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6hve79t93I6Pro0FXyW1F_IfFS0gtKcaccA5ARuUuonWrez4Ry5knfTuHd0tXTLvEAsUcl-AQHhOe5j3CgOSse2PhjE3f9T7_Rc1w1DZ0zZfjg5f5pGOmhpdEsw8R0WDF2J8l7RCy7Eg/s1600/Elegant-Decorating-Ideas-for-Small-Spaces-with-Budget-5.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This bedroom uses the space under the bed for storage. But, rather than allowing that space to become a tangle of stuff, well made drawers with dividers keep clothes neat. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="550" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqzgvevvpecbW2_WTtzKYT8Z_T9FLtAjo5CcZamL3Qmdp9Z3Tsb67WS-L9alp39znW1_SRWC0VzKvDxt6__e5DAlgwoQu7_HqQtWYD7tgUm59_FIkBijks9lTLfm46TTB4RfX8_DFQzow/s1600/Elegant-Decorating-Ideas-for-Small-Spaces-with-Budget-6.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Most people slap a coat of white paint onto their ceiling and call it quits, but creative use of the space can reap room enlarging results. A beamed ceiling takes this room to new heights, while board and batten paneling adds substance to the room's sherbet color palette. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="550" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQmdZFq0WzxO__eiEYZG3BRFdFWK8eMJOc8phauzoZS9_JaMwJ1WvSX9ux7btkqIIjoDh0NG_MKyuj4u27ONuijzj1S2S6g2GFWSraloRpzqLlmCsGUJHq08QaaBtKhMzYi9duVOJeBdI/s1600/Elegant-Decorating-Ideas-for-Small-Spaces-with-Budget-7.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Turn a closet or nook into a work zone. In this space, drapery panels slide along a curtain rod to make it easy to conceal the clutter. Even without an architectural niche or bay, you can duplicate this effect by curtaining off an area across the width of a room just hang the drapes from a rod or thin wire suspended from the ceiling. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjn7d_u0R-NI7JsfI4KNAFKtrrmmcxWGHExgkQXcD7ugvv2n4sXO8cWpt7rXtKOVVB0CGG6zN7N5m3uve5dRUlhmz2LJS3RwUNXSurLzAqN3-DCbJCcJiSB1J-0XQWyxVG2ETbruTW4CE4/s1600/Elegant-Decorating-Ideas-for-Small-Spaces-with-Budget-8.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Opting for a narrow, shallow refrigerator netted more counter and shelf space in this compact kitchen. A tall cabinet with a mix of shelves and deep drawers maximizes storage space. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="550" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0hYYnCHPQBR7y3rIXYbtZXZJQAbTfbHHnS7NpaEZUHX1sNdYI585s3GNuf5eCumqTqeRIMD-aeGwUrQQUDijicuzFyfeF1Khc6Has-Kyiqlv0j7HFFHmhGu421igc-klp8UcbYS8xbdU/s1600/Elegant-Decorating-Ideas-for-Small-Spaces-with-Budget-9.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Get big style from a small space through careful design.

Style on a Budget Decorating : House Tour from BHG

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Take a cue from this home and see how easy it can be to rework remnants, castoffs, and closeouts into stylish, personality-filled home decor. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMWgtRBYs76cp6jGtNPhCA2GHGxkCffU7PWKnSHaqr2tcV2yQJ1w3DDJdoh4Tpfhyphenhyphen00OJFoL7hvOe3ZmoBh_7wcCYxUfakpC0rw2Uvhc86FJ1lqP6yw1zCENiQnMbqDWflSnNp9pqivGw/s640/Stylish-Budget-Decorating-House-Tour-from-BHG.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">From the outside, this Colonial style home looks about like any other. But one step inside reveals a carefully accumulated collection of furniture and accessories purchased from yard sales, closeout sales, and antiques shops that have all been updated and brought to life with paint, upholstery, and other decorative touches. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAlqBj-iknw6YE082zx0jy91RKnq0MOzBDSqdWZ_K15k-EXLoCcWI8vSxgKhuWw8qYJUsL1kKuk2HBs7XXRqVN6w0aXE3JPKZ-FWX2AEYFYg28yPqfpw6MvjdAzvCf_vYwtf3aAhzRdnk/s640/Stylish-Budget-Decorating-House-Tour-from-BHG-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Inspired by the bold pattern blue and white area rug, a navy blue accent wall adds dramatic appeal to the home?s living space. Hits of high contrast white, including the coffee table and fireplace surround, brighten the room. Simple white curtain panels make a window that lacks molding look finished. The homeowner hung the window draperies high and wide to make the window seem larger. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuiby4ZuiqR3E3UQMwW-WmdiByabUMdUdFFCeDSE4Hk6H9nEnvyLgRz9-wgKbBiUdY5XlIkhnraQemYJRBKi4eUNvnwB34gq8d_4IV4OFYAYPKcb5amKgIRIlSq5oscPqtYLoNf1YS1lw/s640/Stylish-Budget-Decorating-House-Tour-from-BHG-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Look online to score deals. This pair of bookcases, an online score, was given new life with a coat of soft blue paint. Paired together, the units create a focal point along one wall of the living room and offer plenty of storage and display space. The backs of the bookcases were painted navy to help tie the units in with the area rug and accent wall. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-kJ3TgLs1xh93lpEesXqinJ0jLKiDDhtxVbmk8OEzEj_ErtbJoPQrX-esXp8-KmddhzggaJLDeLnOahZUUu2Hb86kQyPHU-kISe5uTaQTWylxf2C39ixG7VER9J2ZXwvhSGZXVkYSLMY/s640/Stylish-Budget-Decorating-House-Tour-from-BHG-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Give a mismatched group of furniture a cohesive look with paint. Here, a thrift store cabinet, painted white to match other living room furniture, serves as a media console. The doors of the cabinet feature a motif similar to that of the area rug, which helps tie the piece in with the rest of the living room. Different size black and white images hung above the TV add height and make use of old frames the homeowner had on hand. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVicPH5_L4vGoozslyUb6ORr7adMEyp4_hy3alk_vMgQshBkTpNatVojiK_soxRC6_xEv9obTx47dakVSZHBDXS_nYQyzTyTuGz2mXDCFIcQqjS2rRQpZBHBEvy7f6mm2e18_XEngyJ1k/s640/Stylish-Budget-Decorating-House-Tour-from-BHG-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">A variety of gold accessories scattered throughout the home?s living space lends glamorous appeal. Here, a dramatic gold mirror frame makes use of empty wall space. Use gold paint or gold leaf to give ordinary objects sparkle. A small half moon shape console table below the piece provides a bit of additional display space and visually grounds the mirror. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0a7WpLPBG2ygzkSLaeVi3M9n2lAOmeZgTRXgSlprKsYAKaupxvtE271fbSmCIyEi3rv8G42W03HH9FnXbEmrBf079PDwXEdzfDn8be23_V1a3DkxeKDcsPVjiwd_lVE81Nk8-aVoaXoo/s640/Stylish-Budget-Decorating-House-Tour-from-BHG-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Mix and match furniture by relocating pieces from different spaces. In the casual breakfast nook, a hand-me-down table is paired with chairs that originally came with the dining room table. An outdated yard sale chest was painted black to match the chairs. Designer fabric snagged from a remnant bin was used to create the zippy curtains that add character to the neutral space. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidxxJ-WEXxKr4SwiE1YIrEKkmgzBaXNwCGvi1pI6A08JFX5XYIvhllVoGt1vGe8IyeFo_ecfzilS89luOe0pVk1-cbHtk_tSisS-iAyEI4ZyoB_698lPjyVAybTi8Wt_pNk0-h-E2QjkI/s640/Stylish-Budget-Decorating-House-Tour-from-BHG-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">With the dining room chairs relocated to the breakfast nook, a bench was introduced for seating in the formal dining room. Thrift-store chairs painted white and reupohlstered with fabric to match the drapes serve as additional seating. The final look is an eclectic, unpexpected alternative to the basic matching dining room set. A former TV console now serves as a handy buffet, topped with lamps that were updated with spray paint and new shades. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFTcgwLh6KwoKhKXTW5mDY4pDY9XiUNSX6jK7YGa9u_LykB-vopLdQx_v5Ga6NMWUTV7DsF-htZP9oc5jJpKAz2S40_MsMtZl-FUWU2SYhdH1WQAI1ellIKgSlg3ItCl1BKjwQ77iDS_Y/s640/Stylish-Budget-Decorating-House-Tour-from-BHG-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">No guilt, no fuss is the feeling in the master bedroom, where simple white bedding and cool gray walls allow for easy redecorating for pocket change. The clean lined four poster draws the eye upward and toward the unique ceiling treatment. White painted dressers flanking the sides of the bed work overtime as both nightstands and clothing storage space. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></div>

A fabulous frame can be liberated from the ugly picture it houses, and an ugly frame can be painted. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="550" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpD3AR1lSrCMC_9UCe5HXBSO10AVFCG0sSeqXS7NETsMz8mR2rWHt1egbK2ZQOfxqB6EQlIyGN00aFXx37ZRyr_Dn53vmrAfuRDuR-afJEWWWAD8Z0FChkpvEN2GgyXL1nAhiP2gzzskg/s640/Budget-Decorating-Update-2014-ideas-2.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Mirrors work wonders in any room. Have one cut to fit a tabletop or an extra large picture frame (which usually costs less than buying a big mirror). </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitbZ05_wysRwLUqgPrwGCTEPgQP_iQ9CAM9RrQ-LSAH2_4XzBdphRZU8bZKkLknQAeoRcJR7j-VSeGm9nyZCXtrtcNX6W24OL-sNbnHyWfQoK8UqG1C4J9vj_w6u7JHk-3oVNHZ0WpjFA/s640/Budget-Decorating-Update-2014-ideas-3.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I always say pillows make the room! Buy 1 yard of a great fabric, and take it to a dry cleaner who offers alterations. He can sew a simple pillow for you cheap. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLWjNBf81bTS8xLUmbzrvvqQ81AK2aeuqZlAiGKZJGOhUpPbCYzW0jYrPI8lfLitUjwnx2XUwAA7Tdvf5sMGXNnnR81a2P6mqCLg_FNsW2TeJ4godHqotdhbbnZtTiJAjU2F2ABTelIFs/s640/Budget-Decorating-Update-2014-ideas-4.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Decorating with nature is free and fun. Cut an interesting branch from your yard and put it in a vase, or gather stones and display them in a tray. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeTIsENIWfhtsjlF-qJMVyYGAfx0qrCjVUBMMw1NRVOWhXNR-Y1y05dgR2KkToNSxi3l_fByhcPv6BU539OjYC4A9w8l_fH0fxmXpg8Fq547kw3GCkJ7jfz85H2m3sPRYMpSijE9b4lCQ/s640/Budget-Decorating-Update-2014-ideas-5.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Spending a little more for a sofa or chair is actually budget smart if it meets these criteria: a timeless neutral color, clean lines, and the right scale for the room. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3XJf0B9m7-cu8O6HK8QzMd7jZfdAe9y5bwS6xsR99YDAY1FYlbBu9NZI2PsDuHcsZ4lm8ZDioO7YSjokNMMUoDgf1zwVPIBfhil5qyg7WYBUIykrSrMYGDVJjLw3clVg0wOt4_NOXCKM/s640/Budget-Decorating-Update-2014-ideas-6.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It's easier to go bold with color on a piece of furniture than on walls. Pick a color you love, and paint that dresser. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwNQ5PJndKhbEYNvDjoZ70Sl9covNzbrczGsxOGT-VcsQls9mYjfOSzi9mKk8AGJQ8k6ZZ8CK862YNpvd16QjnlWsD2AMLzcN0wMy7i2pXsU0x_dwML2x6HYrJFADeq__Hj3QK9Fsgt0Y/s640/Budget-Decorating-Update-2014-ideas-7.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Make your own one of a kind lamps. A simple kit costs about $10. Almost anything you can drill a hole through can be a lamp base. I've used ceramic vases, banister rungs, carved wood, and wire baskets. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVl2vpaMWZ6HXMX1RmqIpvi0hPU32Kmuki7H7Xx2phQP9prJtrJx1sF-09kkXDMoU5OqNUT7rNO3QE3LFSQldfIIlDkqWTWW2uEWabRg73qVAvU_1uAsOKbsy9Qgr5m1jwLdt9p9PU6Ak/s640/Budget-Decorating-Update-2014-ideas-8.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For a custom look and an unexpected jolt of color, spray-paint the undersides of glass shelves a bright hue. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiACfVFnlZPuIEyYu_Y8rDIRo41MqkgBDB3JmHg4yf-xCG2s-o5mBrYrCaK9Q0GFpl9yF4gsTNxZUGhBtg0foFpeQ8DfoCIsbmUkCFYfzxFQsDHPTTAi9EGyfXlY6c-rtqkOqQ1ysqkeFg/s640/Budget-Decorating-Update-2014-ideas-9.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The best place to look for quality furniture on a budget is consignment or thrift stores.
