Who else has redecorated or remodeled a space in the last few months?
Have you went shopping and spent wayyyyy too much while doing so? Most of the time we think in order to decorate or redecorate our homes we have to go shopping for tons of new items…. I know because I’m guilty of it. We end up spending an unnecessary amount of money when that’s not always necessary!
Stay home, think about what you have, change it in some way, make it different, and then make it work!
. . . . . . . . . . . . .
Let’s talk about pairing elements to decorate spaces. Hopefully this will help you create a space that you love and enjoy a little more!!
I absolutely love going thrifting and antique shopping. This helps me gather items that I will use throughout my home and other homes! Sometimes these items sit in the garage for months but when I need them I have them to pull from.
Taking your thrifted items and mixing them with elements that are natural and airy, will create a look that no one else will have. There’s so many different elements and unique items out in the world that it’s nearly impossible for someone to have the exact same items that you have, if you do it right.

My “go-to” elements include metals, glass, natural wood, and linen fabrics. Pairing a few of your favorite elements in each area that you are decorating will help blend them all and pull the space together.

So my first piece of advice would be if you have some items you aren’t in love with grab a few cans of spray paint or chalk paint (white, black, gold, or galvanized metal) and paint them! This will bring an entire new look to your items and you may fall in love with them again!
My second piece of advice would be to not try to make your space look like a Pinterest post! Sure let Pinterest inspire you…. BUT! Make your space your very own and if you love it, it’s perfect!
Okay!!! So now go gather all your elements, give some items a face lift, and start decorating your space! 🤗

Don’t forget to share your before & after photos!! I’d love to see them.
