Get that look! Preppy Stripes, part two
Welcome to part two of my exciting Get That Look! post. To read Part one, click here. Today, I’m finishing things up with the lighting, accessories and art in order to recreate this room.
Lighting, & Accessories
a
To complete the look in a way that makes this room your own, I suggest checking estate and yard sales, which are just getting underway at this time of year. But we’re clicking today. Tomorrow we’ll be sewing the fabric I found for the sofa pillow. :-)
- Alessi-like Stockholm Bowl ($39.99) from IKEA
- Basisk Floor Lamp ($29.99) also from IKEA. Their lighting is weak, but I got lucky.
- Chocolate Pearl Ribbon Pillow ($130) from Hable Construction. If you can sew, you’ll save. Worth learning!
- Synops Sculpture ($19.99) IKEA – again! Actually, you get 2 sculptures for one low price. Yay!
- Waverly Garden fabric ($15.30) from Online Fabric Store
Art & Accessories
a
Ick, I don’t like the art in the original. I chose my own. The one designer element is the Jonathan Adler pillow. It’s a splurge, but we deserve it.
- Hibiscus Print, ($116.58) matted and framed from The Fulcrum Gallery
- Jonathan Adler Palm Beach Pillow ($110) from his site.
- Tall Sphere Vase ($29.99) at West Elm
- Rubix Table Lamp ($299) from Mitchell+Gold
That’s it. Done. Phew! Now all you have to do is get out your paint brush, your sewing machine, and your wallet! I’ve done all the work.
Two questions. Should I do another room? and… What element do you think is the biggest waste of money?
