Decorating on Budget: Living Room

Wiggles Pig here. I was recently approached by some clients who wanted me to create a living room that was high on style but low on cost.

I always tell my clients that a great way to start decorating a room when they’re watching their KinzCash is by starting small. A living room doesn’t have to be huge. A smaller room means they won’t have to purchase as many items, and the end result can be quite cozy.

The first thing I like to do is check out the sale items in the W-Shop. There are a lot of great deals to be had. I found this tasteful blue and white striped couch that was the inspiration for my clients’ living room. I wanted to find another color that would complement the blue and when I discovered these Electric Green Chairs for only $120 each I knew my search was over. Blue and green is a classic combination.

The wood floors in the W-Shop are always a great deal, and with our light blue and bright green the Golden Wood floor added to the fresh, breezy look I was after. The muted shades of the Pastel Green Wallpaper tied my color scheme together – for just $90. A Wicker Chair paired with a Leafy Side Table (there’s that green again!) and an Accordion Shade Lamp make an ideal reading nook for my clients.

And remember that blue and white couch I started with? Well, I finished off the space by picking up the white with accents like the Creamy Vanilla Side Table and Flowered Room Divider.

A simple Half Tatami mat, and a few plants later, I have a simple, comfortable living room in soft, airy tones that will have my clients chillin’.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And all for less than $2000 – now that’s super!

    It doesn’t seem to have focus. I mean what are they couches and chairs facing? What is the focal point of the room?

    Was that wallpaper really necessary? Wallpaper is soooooooo 1990′s.
    And why is the room divider in a corner? Can’t divide much there.
    It could really use some lamps as well.
    Please try again.
