Looking around my bedroom, things are feeling a little dull, beyond the lack of sun and shorter days. I need something to cheer me up! I am saving for a new sofa and don’t really have $800 to update with a new bed, but what I do have is $55 for this beautiful Queen headboard!

Now that is some bargain. I get the effect of a new bed without draining the wallet. Check out fantastically talented architect Mina Jivad’s new collection of decals over at Blik.

Her headboard creations are available in an array of trendy colors, so you will have the most up-to-date looking bedroom and be the envy of all those who are just wishing for a new bed.

Pick this season’s popular sophisticated gray, or fall into the 80’s trend with the brights of kiwi and raspberry. Either way, you will sleep well knowing you have a few bucks still left in your wallet!

As a city girl who rents and has a small eat-in kitchen, there is not always enough room for all those gorgeous upholstered dining chairs I would like to have, so I must make do with the folding chair option. Ever the girl who needs to be different, I have been scouring the internet to find ways to glam up these ho-hum chairs and look at what I have come up with: The ever popular (for good reason) removable decal! By using them on the back of a chair and not the wall you can create a chair uniquely your own.

My favorite find is from Blik: the “Chair Back” decal! I love all the different styles and they are available in a range of colors! At a price point of $30 for six decals, it’s certainly an easy way to update those once boring chairs!


Next, we have numbers and letters from the Etsy store TastySuite! A fun idea to label each person’s chair with either their initial or a number. You could get really creative with the numbers and subtly let someone know they are #1 in your life. Who knows, by Christmas they could have moved down the list and you could subtly give them a new number. Cheesy, I know, but fun!




I am also loving the Damask Accent pack from Wall Slicks. They are shipped in one big sheet, but depending on the size of your chair, you could use a small 5″ Damask or take a larger one and cut it in half! They give off a more sophisticated feel and could be great to use after on the wall in a hallway or bathroom. That’s the great thing about removable art…you can use it someplace else after the guests leave and the chairs go back in the closet (or under the bed).

Now if a dishwasher could magically appear I would be a real happy city girl!!
