Here\u2019s how!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Create a Budget<\/strong><br \/>\nBefore you buy a thing, make sure to set a budget. Creating a budget will help you avoid wasting money on items you don\u2019t need or that don\u2019t fit your decor vision.<br \/>\nWhen creating your budget, keep in mind that you don\u2019t need to have all the money upfront. Make a savings plan and add a little to your decorating fund every paycheck. You can also raise money by selling furniture you no longer love, holding a yard sale, or making your lattes at home. Get creative!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Make a Plan<\/strong><br \/>\nMaking a plan is key to getting luxury home decor on a budget. Determine what you need to buy (furniture, lighting, accessories, etc.), then use your budget to help you figure out how much you\u2019ll spend on each item. Write it all down so you can refer back to it later when you\u2019re tempted to buy something that\u2019s not essential.<br \/>\nAt this point, you\u2019ll also want to create a vision board. How do you want your home to look? What style are you going for? If you\u2019re not sure where to start, search Pinterest and Houzz for ideas. Gather everything you like, then narrow it down to create a cohesive look. You can even create a virtual design using Olioboard.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Start with the Big Pieces First<\/strong><br \/>\nOnce you\u2019ve set your budget and vision, it\u2019s time to start shopping! You\u2019ll want to purchase the big ticket items, like furniture, first.<br \/>\nFurniture is pricey, so shop smart. Sign up for emails from your favorite stores, and they\u2019ll send you coupons and sale notices. Get to know the sales people at your favorite DFW stores, and they\u2019ll let you know about promotions. Scour Craigslist for deals on furniture or shop a local consignment store.<br \/>\nNever settle for anything you don\u2019t love! Creating luxury home decor on a budget takes time, patience, and persistence.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Do It Yourself<\/strong><br \/>\nDIY projects are the perfect way to save money on home decor. All you need is a little time and elbow grease!<br \/>\nStart with items you already own that don\u2019t quite fit your vision. Do you have a dresser that\u2019s dark and dingy? Update it with new paint and hardware. You can do the same with dated kitchen cabinets. Choose a fabric you love, then use it to make a pair of custom curtains or a pillow for your couch. It\u2019s even possible, and not as hard as you\u2019d think, to DIY your own artwork.<br \/>\nIf you don\u2019t have much DIY experience, start small. You\u2019ll gain confidence and will be ready to tackle that bathroom demo in no time!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Add Accessories Last<\/strong><br \/>\nAccessories are exciting to shop for, but if you have lot of big ticket items on your shopping list, make sure to save the accessories for last. There\u2019s nothing worse than realizing your favorite pillow doesn\u2019t go with your new couch, or the lamp you fell in love with clashes with an expensive chair!<br \/>\nChoose accessories that will add a luxurious finishing touch. Using a mix of textures, rich metals, and vibrant colors will take your room to the next level.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Most important : have fun! Creating the luxurious home of your dreams should be an enjoyable experience!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.coldwellbanker.com\/luxury-home-decor-on-a-budget-how-to-get-the-home-of-your-dreams\/\" target=\"_blank\">Luxury Home Decor on a Budget : How to Get the Home of Your Dreams!<\/a> by Ginnie Leeming | Coldwell Banker Blue Matter<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you dreaming of a luxurious and beautifully decorated DFW home but aren\u2019t sure where to find the funds to get it?
