Fashionable Decorating Ideas

Recently, I've been slowing re-decorating my room and living room. I like doing small projects such as this, it makes things fun! I've taken a few photos of things I've put together, or bought to accentuate who I am. Below are photos of what I've been working on and directions or steps I took. I hope you enjoy looking through these, have fun and if you have any questions, let me know! :)

First, is my bedroom...

This little wooden picture is from Walmart, it was only $3.99

So, this used to be a frame set that I'd gotten from a thrift store. All I did was take it apart and put only the black frames on my wall. I used clear/see-through push pins to hold them up and then set a few photos on them.

I got this amazing earring holder from Icings! It was on sale for $13.99, originally $40.00 :)

I bought two fake flowers from Walmart and a plastic vase on sale for $4.99. Since the stems on the flowers are really long, I bent them in half and wrapped them around each other. If you want to do something like this, I recommend only getting one or two flowers, so it's not too much.

I bought this lamp about 6 months ago at Target, it was also on sale for $9.99. Last month I wanted to change it up, so I took an old flower ponytail I never wear and cut the rubber band part off, then sewed the flower into the fabric of the lamp. I used black string.

This is hanging up in my kitchen. This is also a small wooden frame like the one above (the pink sun flower), it was also purchased at Walmart.

Second, is my living room. I've had the walls decorated like this for the last year and a half, but I add on every few months.

I've had this retro Audrey Hepburn Poster for a while. It was purchased at Target, and is hanging on the wall in my living room.

To add to the retro style of old Hollywood, I purchased this James Dean picture from Blockbuster, and it hangs above the television in the living room. The quote is "Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today".

This very chic picture is my roommies. I love the red heels in it with the leopard print. It hangs above the couch.

I've had this for a while. I purchased the table from Target (awesome store!), and it's not very tall, but it holds the lamp and a few trinkets. The lamp has that retro-style I love, so I purchased it from Target as well. The trinkets I got from the dollar store; there's a black/ cream colored vase and a ceramic purse with string beads for the handle.

This is a new addition! My boyfriend put this together for me :) I found this really tall book case at Walmart, for $29.99. I needed a space for ALL my movies and tv shows. It adds a lot to the look of the living room and there's a few decorations as well. One is some blocks from the Quilted Bear, they are Valentine's oriented. The pink one says "Be Mine" and the white block says "Be My Valentine". The small tile says "Love Laughter and Friendship always welcome here".

The pillow on my black pleather couch is from Target, it was pricey, but I had to have it for the theme of the living room.

As you can see, I had more pink pillows on this couch. If you haven't already noticed, the theme in my living room is retro old Hollywood with the main colors being pink and black.

Here is a view of the living room from my kitchen.

And a view from where the bookcase is. :)
