Get The Look

September 28, 2011 by Elizabeth Boland

A lot of my clients rip out a favorite living room or kitchen picture from magazines to show me the look they are going for in their own homes. Whether the budget allows for all new furniture, or a just a few new pieces mixed in with the old, not everyone can successfully pull together a room from a picture without help, so how do you achieve the Veranda Magazine look with an Ikea budget?

I live for Interior Design and I love sharing my passion and enthusiasm with my readers. Most of the content you will find here is interior design, architecture, fashion, or canine related.
