Lusi's Lush Spare Room

A great friend and fellow blogger has been busy (in amongst mothering and homeschooling 4 beautiful children - I am exhausted just THINKING about how she does it all!) turning their youngest's room into a spare room. I love Lusi's bargain finds and great ideas!

Here's the before and after. It was a very sweet nursery to begin with, featuring a black, white and purple theme, but now it has been transformed into a striking black, white and red themed spare room. I love the shelves on the far wall that hide away a lot of of homeschooling supplies - Lusi strung up some elastic between 2 3M hooks (I agree Lus, I think we should BOTH be paid to advertise them - I use them everywhere too!) and hung some sheer Ikea curtains over it.

Here's a bargain hunters rundown:

Canvas above bed: $10 from GoLo

Set of black frames: $15 

Cushions on bed: $30 total (!)

Corner shelf: 99¢ off ebay (!!!)

 Paper lanterns: $5 each.

And there are even more bargains and creative ideas to be found on her blog Eternity Matters.
