Creating Eclectic (which is kind of coocoo) Style - Tips and Ideas

If you are a lover of neutrals we will probably need to sedate you this may not be your ideal space but... I hope you can appreciate the collected feel of this room and learn something helpful about how to put together a gorgeous space on a limited budget with a mix of new and used (hand-me-downs, roadside finds, craigslist, thrift store, estate sale, and garage sale) pieces. See my 5 Tips for creating an eclectic space!
Stenciled wall treatment with slipcovered chairs, hand-me-down coffee table and craigslist couch.
This post includes photos detailing where I got everything in this room from the roadside stool to the piano Pappy bought me when I was five.
A birds nest is the perfect juxtaposition to the hand-painted plate I brought home from Italy. The glass top coffee table provides the perfect view to my colorful rug.
The view of the colorful room as you enter my front door.
I love a table full of pictures. This antique table painted hot-pink is perfect for the corner.
Very expensive fabric! But these Chiang Mai Dragon pillows in aquamarine were a deal because I purchased them secondhand.
