After sourcing for a recent guest bedroom / office project with 11ft ceilings, I was stumped on what to put over the sofa. I knew I did not want to just purchase art, and needed to add a personal touch, so I set out to creatively incorporate a graphic or image of the client’s iconic figure, Miles Davis. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I originally wanted a photo of Miles Davis printed on a 60x72 canvas, similar to the following image, but it got to be too pricey for the allotted budget.</span> <o:p></o:p><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I quickly Googled the idea, and how to break up an image across several pages. I came across a life saver website, </span><a href="http://www.blockposters.com/"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">www.blockposters.com</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, that allows you to upload an image, and it does all the work for you! I downloaded the file, had it printed on photo quality paper and framed each page. The rest is history!</span> <br />

Our upcycled Hollywood Glam meets Happy Chic product stands out from the other vendors. However, our booth design did not stand strong, nor match our vibrant product. So Heather and I had to put our thrifty thinking caps on and brainstorm ideas on giving the space a much needed face lift. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Arial", "sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Arial", "sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">We want to provide an inviting environment so buyers will want to come into our booth/space. However, this must be done on a tight budget. After all, the goal is to maximize profit and minimize spending. We agreed the two main areas that make the most visual impact are the walls and the floor.</span></div><br />
The Walls:<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Arial", "sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">Other booths used burlap to cover their walls, and that just doesn’t fit with our style. However, purchasing yards of fabrics with prints/patterns is costly. So, I proposed using King or Queen size flat bed sheets since it comes in large sizes providing more coverage and prevents us from matching the pattern repeat several times.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><br />

Because the winter holiday decorations are temporary, this is the best time to step out of the box and adorn our homes with over the top decor. Here are a few trendy options that wowed the runway, and can definitely transform any space.

Drum roll please……………..Mechanical Bull Riding! After watching “Urban Cowboy” one too many times, I was determined to become Sissy, a true, sexy cowgirl.

I wanted to add texture all while hiding scratches and nicks on the wood. So, an alternative solution until I find the perfect replacement was to cut a hide shape from fabric purchased at Hancock Fabric at $9.99/yd. (on sale from $19.99/yd, however, coupons can also help).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><br />

The budget allocation is as follows:</span></div><ul><li><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">$1-2K for landscaping</span></div></li>
<li><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">$3-4K for painting</span></div></li>
