After looking at that guy's cool 450 sq.ft. apartment I went thru storage last night and pulled out a neat old long oak framed beveled mirror and relocated it to the kitchen behind the backsplash. I had bought this long ago at an estate sale and it used to hang in our bedroom until I rearranged the furniture in there. It had been hiding in the sunroom for a few years unused.
Now this isn't exactly a $ saved story, but a repurpose or using what you've already got story. I also moved a small couch side table that was just kind of sitting in CashHappySon's old empty room to a funky little unused corner in the kitchen and moved a lamp from in-law's estate in there. For now, it makes me happy!
And it kept me from doing retail therapy because my house isn't as utilized as that creative fellow's apartment's every square inch!
