In my quest for unique pieces to redecorate my home with, I came across a painting at Pier 1 that I fell in love with. It is called Cherry Blossoms.
There is just one problem, it is $200. I don’t know about you, but there is no way I am paying $200 for mass-produced artwork. So I set out to recreate Cherry Blossoms on my own. I painted..
And painted…
Three hours later and $200 richer later, I completed my very own Cherry Blossoms masterpiece. It may not be identical, but it is an original and I love it!
Granted not everything can be recreated, but when it comes to redecorating- a little creativity can go a long way. Not only is this now a one-of-a kind, but I can use the money saved for something else that perhaps I cannot make on my own!
What economical redecorating tips do you use?
